Another stablecoin faces challenges in maintaining its 1:1 parity with the U.S. dollar. The synthetix usd (SUSD), issued by Synthetix, has deviated from its target value. This decline is attributed to substantial SUSD selling on decentralized exchange (dex) platforms. Some decentralized finance (defi) platforms are exploring ways to mitigate risks associated with SUSD. For instance, Chaos Labs alerted the Aave community and provided mitigation recommendations.
Chaos Labs also detailed the possible causes of the SUSD incident. The post further explained that SUSD depegged on May 16, 2024, hitting a low of $0.915 relative to USDC. The summary noted that the depeg was triggered by a significant SBTC/WBTC liquidity provider withdrawing funds, using Synthetix’s spot synth redemption to obtain SUSD, and then selling the SUSD in the relevant Curve pool. SUSD has rebounded from $0.915 but has not exceeded $0.96.
Warnings about SUSD have existed for a while. In February, the independent nonprofit stablecoin assessment entity Bluechip gave Synthetix’s stablecoin an “F grade.” SUSD was also placed on the organization’s “Red Flag List,” indicating a strong recommendation against using the SUSD token. SUSD joins numerous stablecoins that have struggled to maintain their intended $1 value. Some, like Terra’s UST, have completely failed, while others, such as TUSD and USDD, have experienced minor setbacks but managed to regain their $1 price.
