Overview π
Understanding Liquidations
Liquidations occur when Collateralized Debt Positions (CDPs) become undercollateralized. This process ensures the stability and solvency of the protocol.
Liquidation Process βοΈ
Two-Step Procedure: Liquidations in the Rosyn AI are automated by bots but the actual two-step process is as follows.
Freeze the CDP: Once frozen, the CDP is inaccessible to its former owner, who forfeits all access and rights to it.
Liquidate the CDP: The CDP's debt is settled by burning iAssets from a Stability Pool, and its collateral is proportionally distributed to Stability Pool stakers.
Incentive to Liquidate π
Stability Pool stakers are motivated to take part in Stability Pool to liquidate CDPs as they can earn a share of the CDP's collateral. Typically, the value of the earned collateral may exceed the value of the canceled debt, especially when a liquidated CDP has a collateral value above 100% of the iAsset value.
