Gcap

1/  Overview
Cap  is a DeFi stable coin protocol built by Beefy, Frax, and QiDao veterans. It blends yield optimization with peg stability, leveraging a three-sided marketplace: $cUSD (USDC-backed), $stcUSD (staked), and operators.
2/  Tech Highlights  
Type III Stable coin: Uses auction-based peg stabilizers for resilience.  

Bitcoin Restaking: Integrates with SatLayer for programmable Bitcoin collateral with slashing.  

Smart Contracts: Likely Solidity-based, enabling DeFi integrations.

3/  Why It Matters  
Yield Farming: $stcUSD offers stable coin yield without peg risk.  

Bitcoin in DeFi: Bridges BTC security to DeFi flexibility.  

Dev-Friendly: Modular design suits yield aggregators and cross-chain apps.

4/  Risks 
Smart contract vulnerabilities (needs audits).  

Peg stability untested at scale.  

Regulatory scrutiny on stable coins.

5/  Get Involved 
Test net: Mint $cUSD, join airdrop
