Frequently Asked Questions

fUSD is a private, decentralized, censorship-resistant stablecoin that tracks ≈ $1, runs fully on the Zano blockchain, and is governed by open-source code—not a company.

Through algorithmic market-making and arbitrage. When the market price moves above $1, incentives favor creating/selling fUSD; when it dips below $1, incentives favor buying/redeeming—without bank reserves.

Positions are backed by ZANO collateral and must remain over a protocol-defined collateralization ratio. Exact parameters can change; always check the current ratio in the app or docs before opening a position.

If collateral falls below the minimum ratio, positions may be liquidated to protect solvency. Manage your risk, monitor health factors, and keep extra headroom to avoid liquidation.

The protocol runs without a central admin that can freeze or blacklist balances. You control your keys. However, you’re responsible for complying with laws in your jurisdiction.

Zano provides protocol-level privacy (confidential amounts and addresses), so transactions are not publicly linkable like on transparent chains. Practice good operational security regardless.

Via participating DEXs/market makers on Zano and peer-to-peer venues announced by the community. Always verify sources and use reputable tooling.

Use the latest Zano wallet or other clients that explicitly list support for fUSD. Verify support in the official docs or release notes before transacting.

You’ll pay Zano network fees, plus any trading spread/slippage with market makers, and potential protocol fees related to minting, redemption, or liquidation events.

The code is open-source and community-reviewed. Independent audits may be performed; always consult the official repository/releases for the latest audit status and reports.

Legal status varies by region and can change. You are solely responsible for understanding and complying with local laws and regulations.

Tax rules differ widely. Keep your own records, learn the requirements where you live, and consult a qualified tax professional.

Smart-contract/code risk, market risk (ZANO volatility), liquidity risk, regulatory risk, and operational security risks. Use caution and never risk more than you can afford to lose.
