Connect and explore

As a DAO (Decentralised Autonomous Organisation), we aim to bring greater transparency for users and give them a voice in decision-making processes.

On the testnet, you’ll be able to use ALGOs as collateral to mint xUSD. We encourage you to push this version to its limits and let us know what you like and what could be improved. So connect your wallet to get started.

You can find an early version of our docs here (note, these are constantly being updated) to help you get started: https://docs.xbacked.io/

About xBacked; Unlocking Capital Efficiencies.

Transparent, collateralized assets are needed to unlock equity and empower the digital economy which is something that traditional finance has been unable to facilitate. xBacked is a DAO building a suite of decentralized stablecoins on Algorand, beginning with xUSD that allows anyone with ALGO to mint xUSD.

Over time, xBacked will support a wider range of collateral types. This provides major benefits to the ecosystem, allowing projects to retain more tokens, unlocking dormant capital and extending project runways.

Not only is Algorand culturally aligned with xBacked, but so is the community. Everyone building in the ecosystem is looking at how they can work together to ensure the whole ecosystem wins.

Read the full Hello World press release to find out more about how xBacked is set to become the leader in unlocking capital efficiency on Algorand.

As the team continues to enhance the technology over the coming months, xBacked will begin building the community through activity across various channels. To keep up to speed with the latest developments of this exciting project be sure to join xBacked on Twitter, LinkedIn, Reddit, Medium, Discord, and Telegram.
