Frax
Profil du Stablecoin
Frax (FRAX) est un stablecoin algorithmique — son ancrage à USD est maintenu par la mécanique du protocole on-chain plutôt que par des réserves off-chain. Actuellement, 212 M $US sont en circulation sur 22 réseaux blockchain. Le mécanisme ajuste l'offre (mint et burn) en fonction des écarts de prix par rapport au peg cible.
À propos de Frax (FRAX)
Frax attempts to be the first stablecoin protocol to implement design principles of both collateralized and algorithmic stablecoins to create a highly scalable, trustless, extremely stable, and ideologically pure on-chain money.
Using the Frax Finance app, FRAX can be minted by locking USDC and burning FXS in a proportion determined by the protocol's collateral ratio.
Émetteur et attestation
Frax (FRAX) is issued by Frax Finance protocol, operating under Decentralised, governed by FXS (now frxUSD/FXS) holders. Originally launched in 2020.
Composition des réserves
Historically a fractional-algorithmic design. As of 2023 the protocol voted to migrate to 100% collateralisation. Reserves include USDC, sDAI, and AMOs (algorithmic market operations).
Événements notables d'ancrage
In February 2023 the community passed FIP-188 to raise the collateral ratio to 100% in response to the broader algorithmic-stablecoin reassessment after the Terra/UST collapse.

Activité récente de l'offre
Frax (FRAX) supply contracted by 125,7 k $US (-0.06%) in the last 24 hours, expanded by 9,3 M $US (+4.59%) over the past week, and expanded by 12,5 M $US (+6.27%) over the past 30 days.
Expansion phase: minting activity has outpaced redemptions, with circulating supply growing 6.27% over the past month.

Historique de stabilité de l'ancrage
Frax (FRAX) relies on protocol-level supply rebalancing rather than direct asset redemption to defend its 1.00 USD peg. The spot price is currently $0.9928 (-0.717% deviation). Algorithmic designs carry materially higher peg-failure risk than reserve-backed stablecoins — the May 2022 Terra/UST collapse remains the canonical reference case.
Comment les stablecoins algorithmic défendent leur ancrage
Algorithmic stablecoins attempt to balance supply and demand through protocol-level mint/burn incentives — typically against a paired governance or seigniorage token. When the price drops below $1.00, the protocol burns supply (often by letting holders swap into a discounted asset); when it rises above $1.00, the protocol mints new tokens. This design only holds when the paired asset retains independent demand. If the market loses faith in the paired asset, the feedback loop reverses and produces a hyperinflationary "death spiral" — the failure mode that wiped out roughly $60B in the Terra/UST collapse.
Implications pratiques pour les détenteurs
- Peg-failure tail risk is materially higher than reserve-backed designs. Position sizing should reflect this — algorithmic stablecoins are not a "cash equivalent" for risk-management purposes.
- Read the latest collateralisation ratio carefully: many "algorithmic" stablecoins have since migrated to partial or full collateralisation. The label can lag the actual mechanism.
- Reflexive feedback loops mean small redemption pressure can cascade. Exit liquidity should be assessed during normal conditions, not after stress begins.
- Mantapex tracks peg deviation in real time from DeFiLlama price feeds, but for high-value holdings cross-check directly on at least one independent venue (CoinGecko, the issuer's own dashboard, or an on-chain DEX).
Peg-stability commentary is based on the mechanism class (algorithmic) and is provided for educational purposes only — it is not financial advice. Past peg stability is not a guarantee of future performance, and even the highest-quality stablecoins have historically traded outside their target band during banking, regulatory, or liquidity stress.
Adresses de contrat
Frax (FRAX) is deployed as a token contract on 1 blockchain network below. Always verify the contract address you're interacting with on the relevant block explorer before sending funds — phishing tokens reusing well-known stablecoin tickers are common, especially on newer chains.
