CDP

A CDP (collateralized debt position), at its most basic level, is held when a user deposits collateral in a smart contract in order to generate stablecoins. CDPs allow users to take out loans against their own assets. A use case for this utility is when users do not wish to sell an asset but need or want additional funds to use elsewhere. [4]

$STAR

$STAR is an over-collateralized backed by a 110% minimum collateral ratio. Loans are secured by always having more value locked than the amount of debt given out. Preon introduced a linear fee model in the minting process. Users do not pay the 8% borrow fee upfront. The fees are split & paid linearly over 6 months. [5]
Disclaimer: These fees are subject to change in the future due to market conditions and/or other factors. [5]

Nebula Vaults

Nebula Vaults are vaults that act as collateral in exchange for the ability to borrow $STAR. These vaults are the backing of the stablecoin and are used mainly to optimize the farming opportunities for all users in different ways. [6]

$vePREON

$vePREON is a receipt for locking $PREON into the protocol’s veNFT contract for a time period between 1 week to 2 years. $vePREON holders are rewarded with the following:

  • One-time borrow fee (added to borrowers debt)
  • Repayment fee
  • Performance fee on collateral yield farming
  • Liquidation profits

The earned $STAR is used for the protocol in the form of incentives for $vePREON holders and is sent to the Treasury, where it is employed for various purposes. [6]
