MORIA’S UPGRADED STABLECOIN PUTS BORROWERS IN THE DRIVER’S SEAT
Moria Protocol has rolled out MUSDv1, a major upgrade to Bitcoin Cash’s first on-chain stablecoin, introducing borrower-set interest rates and removing the $1M mint cap. Now, users can choose their own rates — opting for lower costs (with higher redemption risk) or pricier but more secure loans — while loans themselves become tradeable NFTs. The system maintains stability by prioritizing redemptions on the lowest-rate loans and liquidating undercollateralized positions (below 120%). For more info visit moria.money/v1.

John Moriarty of Bitcoin Out Loud has successfully crowdfunded 11.56 BCH through FundMe.cash to produce an educational video explaining Bitcoin Cash’s CHIP (Cash Improvement Proposal) process.
