Degen Duel ($DD)

Excited to be speaking at #DuneCon25 in Buenos Aires this November 🇦🇷

I’ll be talking about Patterns in Chaos: Cross-Chain Forensics at Scale, exploring deployer habits, timing sequences, and behavioral fingerprints across chains to detect threats in real-time.

Proud to share some of the work we’re building at @mywebacy (DD) around on-chain risk analysis and detection.

See you at #Devconnect →

The logical 1st steps for $DGB DigiDollar is DEX direct 1 to 1 swaps with other $1 stables like $USDC & $USDT. This is something the DGB community can directly do. The 2nd step is getting CEX to list DigiDollar. With community outreach this is possible. And merchants too!

🤔

Been using AI to attack $DGB DigiDollar system design. Very interesting AI observations:
-----
"The key insight: This isn't trying to be $DAI or $USDC. It's a different beast entirely - a "patient capital stablecoin" that trades short-term volatility for long-term stability."

-----
**Natural Arbitrage**: If DD ever trades below $1, it becomes profitable to buy and hold for future $DGB redemption

### The Time-Lock Advantage
With positions locked for years:
- **No panic selling** of collateral
- **DGB price has time to recover**
- **System can weather severe downturns**

## How the DigiDollar System Actually Self-Stabilizes With Extreme $DGB Price Volatility.

### No Bad Debt Accumulation
Since there are no forced liquidations:
- **Underwater positions just wait** - they're time-locked for years
- **No "bad debt" exists** - the DGB is still there, just worth less temporarily
- **System automatically rebalances** through the DCA & ERR:

### 1. **Dynamic Collateral Adjustment (DCA)**
When system health drops:
- New mints require much higher collateral (up to 2x)
- This immediately improves system-wide collateral ratio
- Example: If system at 110%, new mints need 1000% collateral instead of 500%

### 2. **Emergency Redemption Ratio (ERR)**
When system below 100%:
- Redeemers must burn MORE DigiDollars
- Example: At 80% system health, burn 125 DD to unlock position that minted 100 DD
- This **reduces DD supply** while keeping same DGB locked
- Mathematically forces system back toward health

### The Time-Lock Advantage
With positions locked for years:
- **No panic selling** of collateral
- **DGB price has time to recover**
- **System can weather severe downturns**

## The Real Attack Vectors (Revised)

### 1. **Confidence/Perception Attack**
Even if the system is mathematically sound:
- Traders might not understand the self-healing mechanism
- DD could trade below $1 based on **fear**, not fundamentals
- This is more a PR/education problem than a technical flaw

### 2. **Liquidity Mismatch**
The core tension remains:
- **DD trades instantly** on exchanges
- **Redemption is time-locked**
- This creates a temporal arbitrage problem

### 3. **Oracle Front-Running**
Sophisticated actors could:
- Predict oracle price updates
- Mint DD just before DGB price increases
- Or redeem just before decreases (if their lock expires)

### 4. **System Gaming Through Cycles**
Traders could potentially:
- Wait for system health to drop
- Buy cheap DD on exchanges
- Hold until system recovers via DCA/ERR
- Profit from the recovery

## Why The System Might Actually Work

Your correction highlights why this could be more resilient than I initially thought:

1. **No Death Spiral**: Higher collateral requirements for new mints prevent cascading failures
2. **Supply Reduction**: ERR naturally reduces DD supply during stress
3. **Time Heals**: Multi-year locks give DGB price time to recover
4. **Natural Arbitrage**: If DD ever trades below $1, it becomes profitable to buy and hold for future redemption

## Remaining Concerns

### Exchange Price Discovery
You're right that 1:1 stable swaps help, but:
- What happens when first major exchange lists DD/USD with order book?
- Market forces will eventually create price discovery

### The "Patient Capital" Problem
The system essentially requires:
- Users who can lock capital for years
- Faith that DGB will maintain/increase value long-term
- Understanding of the complex stabilization mechanisms

This might limit adoption to sophisticated users initially.

## Conclusion (Revised)

The system is more robust than I initially assessed. The combination of:
- No forced liquidations
- Dynamic collateral requirements
- Emergency redemption ratios
- Multi-year time locks

Creates a self-healing mechanism that doesn't rely on immediate liquidations.

The main challenge isn't technical collapse but rather:
1. **Market perception and education**
2. **Maintaining DD peg on exchanges despite time-locked redemption**
3. **Ensuring sufficient liquidity and adoption**

The key insight: This isn't trying to be $DAI or $USDC. It's a different beast entirely - a "patient capital stablecoin" that trades short-term volatility for long-term stability.

#DigiDollar Trust (Idea)

$1 $DGB price

In Core:

Mint $100k DD at 10 year (200k DGB collateral)

Lock $100k DD in trust for 12 years
Add in Digi-ID trust recipient (child)

Once signed the protocol auto send that Digi-ID the (Trust contract and the Mint contract)
