The first time hearing about lisUSD, many people's reactions were similar—another stablecoin, why should we trust it?



ListaDAO's answer is confident: 150% over-collateralization + a three-layer liquidation mechanism.

It sounds a bit complicated, so let's break it down. As of the end of 2025, the on-chain data for lisUSD is as follows—total circulation of 187 million tokens, with collateral backing valued at $293 million. To put it another way, the actual collateralization ratio has reached 156.7%, well above the system's minimum threshold of 150%. What does this mean? Even if BNB crashes 30% within 24 hours, the system can still withstand it, with a 16% buffer remaining.

The key is how the liquidation layers work—divided into three tiers.

When the collateralization ratio drops below 130%, the first tier "partial liquidation" is triggered, and bots will help you repay your debt, giving you a 7% discount; if it falls further to 110%, it enters the second tier "full liquidation," where collateral is auctioned off all at once; if it continues to plummet below 103%, the third tier kicks in—the protocol's $12 million lisUSD reserve will cover the shortfall directly, ensuring the entire system doesn't collapse.

Data from the past six months tell a story: 1,247 liquidation events, but zero bad debt. The most intense was on November 18, 2025, when BNB dropped 22% in a single day. The bots completed the auction in just 9 seconds, and the system actually earned $140,000 in liquidation fees.

Next time the market crashes, first calculate your collateralization ratio, then decide whether to buy the dip on those cheap liquidated positions.

ngl, the 156.7% collateralization is actually doing heavy lifting here... but let's not pretend this solves the velocity trap problem most stablecoins face lmao

0 bad debt sounds good, but when the crash actually happens, it still depends on whether the robot is reliable or not.

156.7% collateralization ratio, to be honest, this number is indeed solid, unlike some projects that just talk big.

156.7% collateralization ratio sounds intense, but I want to see how long the zero bad debt over six months can last.

A 156% collateralization ratio sounds solid, but the question is whether this mechanism can really withstand extreme market conditions. History always has surprisingly similar patterns...

Another stablecoin, they all seem pretty similar... but this data is quite solid, a 156% collateralization rate is indeed impressive. Auction completed in 9 seconds? The robot's speed is incredible. Next time there's a dip, really consider buying the dip. The three-layer liquidation mechanism sounds very stable, unlike some projects that collapse suddenly. This time, it seems to have real safeguards. 1247 liquidations with zero bad debt—honestly, this record is top-tier among stablecoins... finally seeing one that isn't just air.

156% collateralization ratio sounds solid, but I'm worried the data might change again during the next crash.

A collateralization ratio of 156.7% sounds good, but when it comes to extreme market conditions, who dares to bet that the system can withstand it?
