CHI is a fully-collateralized, decentralized stablecoin. CHI's peg stability is achieved through the use of arbitrage, allowing for an extremely tight peg around $1. This is done through direct redeemability, meaning CHI can always be minted or redeemed for $1 of collateral. This mechanism ensures that CHI's price stays close to its target of $1, with any deviation from this price creating an opportunity for arbitrage.
