Bearn.FI Kicks Off Its Ecosytem With Their Algorithmic Stablecoin bDollar


bDollar is the latest algorithmic stable coin to launch on the BSC, innovating on the ETH-based algorithmic stable coin, Basis Cash.
What Is Bearn.Fi?
Bearn.Fi is a cross-chain decentralized finance (De-Fi) ecosystem that aims to bring users yield opportunities, casino/gaming aggregation, cross-chain bridge, treasury, and governance. Bearn.Fi brought their multi-chain protocol to Ethereum as well as the Binance Smart Chain (BSC).

Bearn is focusing on a series of core products comprising the Bearn.Fi ecosystem. In the future, we can expect the De-Fi ecosystem to offer all of the previously listed services. Users who hold the BFIE(ETH)/BFI(BSC) will proceed in the protocol's management and governance. Currently, Bearn is most focused on their debut product, BDollar, an algorithmic stable coin.
Algorithmic Stable Coins
Algorithmic stable coins are unlike the two other types of stable coins, Fiat-Collateralized and Crypto Collateralized. Algorithmic stable coins rely on an algorithm to recognize specific parameters, where it will then adjust the supply to reach its peg price accordingly. For example, rebase tokens will increase supply when the token price is above its peg, but it will reduce supply when its price is below its peg.
Rebase tokens are a fundamental mechanism used in Algorithmic stable coins, BDollar, a Basis Cash fork, leverages a different agent referred to as seigniorage. Seigniorage is defined as the difference between the real value versus the cost of producing it, typically for currencies. These algorithmic tokens create positive seigniorage, which makes an economic profit, allowing for users to profit.
The existing system revolves around three tokens, the stable coin, a bond, and a share. The bond and the share tokens are used to adjust the supply to reach the asset's peg price.
BDollar

bDollar is the first algorithmic stablecoin to launch on the BSC, innovating the ETH-based algorithmic stable coin, Basis Cash. As mentioned above, bDollar consists of three tokens: bdollar, bDollar Shares, and bDollar Bonds.
BDO is the algorithmic stable coin that is pushed towards its peg by the other two tokens:
sBDO – Allowing holders to claim BDO inflation rewards when BDO is above the $1 price peg
bBDO – Redeemable for BDO 1:1 when BDO is below the $1 price peg, bBDO can then be redeemed 1:1 for a premium once the network returns to its inflationary state, above the $1 peg
The following excerpt from the bDollar medium explains the algorithmic mechanism:
BDO trades below the $1 target price
When the BDO price is below the target price of $1, token holders can purchase bDollar Bonds (bBDO) by burning bDollar to reduce the circulating supply with a 1:1 ratio, and Bonds will be burnt when users redeem bDollar with a premium bonus.
In case of redemption, an amount of BDO will be minted according to the TWAP at the beginning of the epoch (for example, if the BDO price is $1.1 then one Bond burnt will get back 1.1 BDO). Important to note is that Bonds have no expiry after purchase.
BDO trades above the $1 target price
When BDO price is above the 1$ peg, the token supply will have to expand to push it back down to 1$ and the contract will allow the redemption of the bDollar Bonds.
When the price of bDollar continues trading above the $1 target price after bond redemption, the contract mints an appropriate amount of new BDO. This will be distributed to the Boardroom Stakers.
This three token system creates incentives through seigniorage, always pushing BDO towards its peg. sBDO is used to redistribute the seigniorage from inflating the asset, while bBDO is used to establish a price floor while BDO is in its deflationary state. Overall, this system allows the Bearn.Fi team to leverage seigniorage to create a stable coin that requires no collateralization.
Key Metrics
Boardroom

The boardroom page is where users can stake their sBDO to receive the seigniorage incentives. It is important to note that each epoch(reward distribution) is 6 hours, and users must lock their sBDO for three periods. Whenever the price of BDO is over its $1 peg excess BDO will be minted in order to push the price back towards its peg. These are the rewards generated from seigniorage, which are then distrubuted to sBDO holders.
Banks

The bank consists of multiple PancakeSwap liquidity pools (LP), which allow users to earn BDO emissions. Currently, there are seven liquidity pools, which are displayed above. These rewards where allocated from the initial BDO supply in order to generate liquidity.
Bonds

Here users can mint bonds from existing BDO at a discount. This creates a price floor for BDO as people speculate on the price returning to its peg. If and when the price returns to its peg, users will be able to redeem their bBDO 1:1 for BDO.
Concluding Thoughts
Overall, bDollar innovates on the traditional stable coin model on top of the algorithmic coin model. This three coin system can leverage seigniorage to push BDO into its equilibrium of $1. This is solely the first product to reach the Bearn.Fi ecosystem and it has already brought innovation onto the BSC.

ConsenSys gives a breakdown of Layer 2 roll-ups, particularly ZK-rolls-ups and where the space is headed in the third Build section of the 2023 CMC Crypto Playbook

An Overview of Layer 2 Roll-ups
Over the past few years, Layer 2 (L2) rollup solutions have come to the forefront as activity on the Ethereum network has grown. Activity and engagement with non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) have caused a surge in Layer 1 (L1) blockchain activity. In turn, the demand for blockspace, represented by gas costs, has increased. And the time for transaction finality has risen due to the increased network load. Whilst the Ethereum Merge set the groundwork for future gas fee optimizations; it did not directly reduce transaction gas fees.
In the year between the summer of 2020 and the peak demand in the summer of 2021 gas cost in Gwei on the Ethereum network increased by up to 1300%. The need to make transactions fast and affordable spurred the creation of two primary forms of rollup: Optimistic and Zero-Knowledge (ZK).
Rollups help remove the computational demands on the Ethereum network by moving transaction processing off-chain, converting them into a single piece of data and then submitting back on Ethereum as a batch to reduce the associated cost and time. The big difference between the two is that Optimistic roll-ups utilize fraud proofs, whereas ZK-rollups rely on zero-knowledge proofs to verify changes to the main chain.
Optimistic and ZK-rollups: Fraud Proofs vs Validity Proofs
Fraud proofs bundle transactions off-chain and then repost them to the L1. After a bundle has been submitted on the L1 there is a challenge period, during which anyone can challenge the result of the roll-up by computing a fraud proof. Similarly, zero-knowledge proofs batch transactions off-chain and submit them as a single transaction. Where they differ is rather than assuming the transactions are correct initially, they use a validity proof to instantly prove whether the transactions are valid. Once the transactions have been confirmed as valid they are then submitted to the L1. This is how they derive their respective names - fraud proofs are where the transactions are checked retrospectively to see if there are any fraudulent transactions, whereas validity proofs are completed before the transactions are submitted to the L1.
Whilst there are prominent projects for both, they each come with their own respective benefits and drawbacks. Optimistic roll-ups have the advantage that fraud proofs are only required when there is an issue. This means they require less computational resources and are able to scale well. The trouble lies with the challenge period. A longer challenge period increases the likelihood that any fraudulent transactions are identified, however, it also means that users have to wait longer to withdraw their funds. For leading optimistic rollup solutions, such as Arbitrum and Optimism, this waiting period can last up to a week. Alternatively, ZK-rollups have the advantage of always reflecting a correct L2 state. Their drawback is that proofs are required for all state transitions, rather than solely when they are contested, which limits scalability. This is further compounded by the complex nature and early stage of the technology.
Despite their respective challenges, ZK-rollups are being heralded as the future for roll-ups. This is primarily due to the automatic generation of validity proofs increasing the security of the protocol, the significantly reduced time to withdraw due to there being no challenge period, and that ZK-rollups boast better data compression. For these reasons, we will hone in on the current state of the ZK-rollup space, the latest innovations, and what lies ahead in the future.

The ZK-Rollup Space
As we’ve discussed, ZK-rollups are predominantly in the focal point with players like zkSync, Starknet, Polygon zkEVM, and Scroll all raising large amounts of capital to develop their solutions despite only StarkNet having launched on mainnet ($780MM in total). Each of these projects has taken its own angle, differing primarily across their rollups data availability strategy and their proving algorithm. The data availability strategy determines where the state data of a roll-up is stored, on-chain storage has increased security but it uses up block space on the Ethereum network which reduces transaction throughput.
The proving algorithm is the means of generating a validity proof, which can either be STARK or SNARK. Both of these algorithms help developers to relocate computation and storage off-chain, in turn increasing scalability. They are also able to verify whether a user has sufficient funds and the correct private key without having to access the information itself, thus improving the security. You can read more about the technical differences here. STARKs have the advantage of offering more scalability, security, and transparency compared to SNARKs. But the drawback STARKS have is a larger proof size, which takes longer to verify, and that SNARKs comparatively only use 24% of the gas. Therein for both SNARKS and STARKS we have the tradeoff between speed and cost vs. scalability, security, and transparency. Whilst many different methods are being explored there is not yet a definitive answer as to the best way to set up a ZK-rollup. Each configuration brings respective benefits and many developers are still exploring the optimal choice or combination for their roll-up designs.
The Hurdles To Overcome
As we’ve discussed, ZK-rollups are still in development and there are various challenges that need to be overcome before blockchain users are able to reap their full benefits. Language compatibility is one such challenge; translating Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-friendly programming languages, such as Solidity, into a custom-built language specifically optimized for ZKP can help boost their efficiency, but it brings with it adoption challenges for developers. For example, StarkNet is looking to solve this with Warp, a Solidity to Cairo (the language of StarkNet’s ZKP) language compiler that looks to automatically convert Solidity into Cairo. Using Warp removes the need for developers to rewrite their code in Cairo, making it a much smoother process.
Other challenges include the secretive nature of projects, with many going against the open-source ethos of crypto due to concerns over first-mover advantage and capturing a sticky userbase. Most ZK-rollups were first launched this year, highlighting the amount of work that is yet to be done in the space.
Lastly, whilst rollups (both optimistic and zero-knowledge) have the benefits of improved speed and cost, it tends to be at the expense of decentralization. This is due to the inherent need for sequencers, the actors batching transactions and committing proofs to the L1. All rollups currently need a centralized sequencer and use upgradeable smart contracts that are managed by a single entity. Because the space is still so early, a central focal point is typically required for quick fixes to bugs in the code. Add to that the projects aren’t open-sourced, creating another hurdle for community members to act as sequencers. Many projects have indicated that they plan to decentralize their sequencer functions in the future, but this will undoubtedly take additional resources and time.
Decentralization Plans
Launching a token and open-sourcing code will be the next steps for many of the projects seeking decentralization. Tokenization of these services to generate activity and decentralize the product is another area where we expect to see a myriad of different solutions cropping up as projects look to create the most scalable, decentralized and active L2 on the market. StarkWare and zkSync are both planning to launch a token and Polygon could potentially use MATIC to support Polygon’s zkEVM initiative. Token engineering on ZK-rollups is an even more nascent space than the optimistic roll-up technology and finding an effective and sustainable model can differentiate and boost adoption.
The Future
zkEVMs are still in their very early stages and the race is on to launch on mainnet. StarkNet has the first-mover advantage but still has challenges with regard to supporting Solidity features due to the use of Cairo, leaving room for competitors to make improvements. The projects that are able to amass significant user bases will attract Decentralized Applications (Dapps) developers, in turn bringing more dapps to their platform and increasing the feature set. ConsenSys’ zkEVM is currently moving to testnet and are focussing specifically on dapp developers for this reason, leveraging tools like MetaMask, Infura and Truffle so that they can deploy and manage applications as if they were directly using Ethereum.
And whilst we have discussed the current players in the zkEVM market, other predominant rollup solutions like Polygon, Optimism, and Arbitrum still command a significant market share. As zkEVM solutions mature, we may see these projects look to transition to validity proofs or hybrid solutions, leveraging their existing user bases to attract dapp development and maintain their market dominance. In the end, the many rollup solutions (and the increased competition between them) will continue to improve the web3 user experience and introduce platforms for applications to onboard the next generation of users.
Given these threats, we’re not surprised at the secrecy of projects in the space, but we believe the true winner will be able to leverage the efficiency of ZK-rollups and combine it with a seamless developer and user experience to come out on top.
