Frax Finance has recently become more competitive in the DeFi sector by incorporating Real World Assets (RWA) into its protocol. The inclusion of RWAs has boosted Frax’s potential in the DeFi sector, which has become increasingly competitive as more protocols join the space and old ones continue to make improvements.
Frax v3, the latest iteration of the protocol, was designed to achieve full collateralization through the use of assets such as RWAs. It heavily relies on AMO smart contracts and a mix of permissionless, non-custodial subprotocols to ensure its overall stability. The protocol also integrates internal stability mechanisms such as Fraxlend and Fraxswap, while external support from Curve adds an extra layer of stability.
What is the RWA Strategy of Frax Finance?
The RWA strategy includes four asset categories: short-dated U.S. T-bills, Federal Reserve Overnight Repurchase Agreements, USD held at Federal Reserve Banks, and Money Market Mutual Funds. This strategy aims to provide a reliable source of income by collaborating with FinresPBC which focuses on low-risk, cash-equivalent assets that closely match the IORB rate.
Difference Between the FRAX and FXS
Frax v1 utilizes fully on-chain oracles including Uniswap and Chainlink. The stablecoin FRAX is designed to maintain a tight band of around $1 per coin, while the governance token Frax Shares (FXS) gains fees, seigniorage revenue, and excess collateral value.
The sFRAX vault offers staking opportunities to users with the potential to earn returns in FRAX stablecoins. This approach tracks the Interest on Reserve Balances (IORB) rate of the U.S. Federal Reserve, a recognized risk-free rate, to provide traditional on-chain yields for the FRAX stablecoin.
