About Ducat
Ducat Protocol introduces UNIT, the first decentralized stablecoin native to Bitcoin's Layer 1, enabling users to borrow UNIT instantly using BTC as collateral. By depositing BTC into non-custodial vaults, users maintain full control over their funds while leveraging their assets. It allows borrowers to set their collateralization ratio based on individual risk preferences, risky, moderate, or safe, providing flexible risk management. Borrowed UNIT can be utilized within the BTC-Fi ecosystem, and upon repayment, users can unlock and withdraw their BTC collateral. The Vault Homepage offers real-time BTC price updates and a dynamic risk indicator to help users track their leverage and manage risk effectively. Ducat's architecture leverages Bitcoin's Layer 1 for security, decentralization, and resilience, ensuring that all transactions are transparent and auditable on-chain.
