Messages

Users can submit various messages to the cdp module which trigger state changes detailed below.

CreateCDP​

CreateCDP sets up and stores a new CDP, adding collateral from the sender, and drawing Principal debt.

type MsgCreateCDP struct {
    Sender     sdk.AccAddress
    Collateral sdk.Coin
    Principal  sdk.Coin
}

State changes:

  • a new CDP is created, Sender becomes CDP owner
  • collateral taken from Sender and sent to cdp module account, new Deposit created
  • Principal stable coins are minted and sent to Sender
  • equal amount of internal debt coins created and stored in cdp module account

Deposit​

Deposit adds collateral to a CDP in the form of a deposit. Collateral is taken from Depositor.

type MsgDeposit struct {
    Owner      sdk.AccAddress
    Depositor  sdk.AccAddress
    Collateral sdk.Coin
}

State Changes:

  • Collateral taken from depositor and sent to cdp module account
  • the depositor's Deposit struct is updated or a new one created
  • cdp fees are updated (see below)

Withdraw​

Withdraw removes collateral from a CDP, provided it would not put the CDP under the liquidation ratio. Collateral is removed from one deposit only.

type MsgWithdraw struct {
    Owner      sdk.AccAddress
    Depositor  sdk.AccAddress
    Collateral sdk.Coin
}

State Changes:

  • Collateral coins are sent from the cdp module account to Depositor
  • Collateral amount of coins subtracted from the Deposit struct. If the amount is now zero, the struct is deleted

DrawDebt​

DrawDebt creates debt in a CDP, minting new stable asset which is sent to the sender.

type MsgDrawDebt struct {
    Sender    sdk.AccAddress
    CdpDenom  string
    Principal sdk.Coin
}

State Changes:

  • mint Principal coins and send them to Sender, updating the CDP's Principal field
  • mint equal amount of internal debt coins and store in the module account
  • increment total principal for principal denom

RepayDebt​

RepayDebt removes some debt from a CDP and burns the corresponding amount of stable asset from the sender. If all debt is repaid, the collateral is returned to depositors and the cdp is removed from the store

type MsgRepayDebt struct {
    Sender   sdk.AccAddress
    CdpDenom string
    Payment  sdk.Coin
}

State Changes:

  • burn Payment coins taken from Sender, updating the CDP by reducing Principal field by Paymment
  • burn an equal amount of internal debt coins
  • decrement total principal for payment denom
  • if fees and principal are zero, return collateral to depositors and delete the CDP struct:
    • For each deposit, send coins from the cdp module account to the depositor, and delete the deposit struct from store.

Liquidate​

Liquidate enables Keepers to liquidate a Borrower's CDP. If the CDP is below its Loan-to-Value obligations, the CDP's deposits are seized: a small percentage of the seized funds are sent to the Keeper with the rest auctioned off to recover the CDP's outstanding borrowed amount. Any deposited funds leftover that weren't needed to cover the Borrower's debts are returned to the Borrower.

// MsgLiquidate attempts to liquidate a borrower's cdp
type MsgLiquidate struct {
    Keeper         sdk.AccAddress `json:"keeper" yaml:"keeper"`
    Borrower       sdk.AccAddress `json:"borrower" yaml:"borrower"`
    CollateralType string         `json:"collateral_type" yaml:"collateral_type"`
}

State Changes:

  • the CDP's outstanding interest is synchronized so that the deposit and borrow amount are accurate
  • the liquidation attempt is validated by comparing the CDP's current collateralization ratio to its liquidation ratio
  • the Keeper is paid out a percentage of the liquidated position; the exact percentage is specified in the module's params
  • the CDP's deposits are seized and used to start an Auction to recover the CDP's outstanding borrowed funds
  • the module's TotalPrincipal for the CDP's collateral type is decremented by the CDP's Principal
  • the CDP is deleted from the store and removed from the liquidation index

Fees​

At the beginning of each block, fees accumulated since the last update are calculated and added on.

feesAccumulated = (outstandingDebt * (feeRate^periods)) - outstandingDebt

where:

  • outstandingDebt is the CDP's Principal plus AccumulatedFees
  • periods is the number of seconds since last fee update
  • feeRate is the per second debt interest rate

Fees are divided between surplus and savings rate. For example, if the savings rate is 0.95, 95% of all fees go towards the savings rate and 5% go to surplus.

In the event that the rounded value of feesAccumulated is zero, fees are not updated, and the FeesUpdated value on the CDP struct is not updated. When a sufficient number of periods have passed such that the rounded value is no longer zero, fees will be updated.

Database Indexes​

When CDPs are update by the above messages the database indexes are also updated.
