FAsset Operational Parameters#
This page lists the current values for the most important parameters of the FAssets system.
Each listed parameter links to its documentation when available. Otherwise, it includes a description of the purpose of the parameter.
Some of the values might be adjusted during the Beta phases.
Open Beta (Coston) Parameter Values#
Minting and Redeeming#
| Parameter | XRP | BTC | DOGE | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Minting cap Total amount of allowed FAssets in circulation. Once reached, no more FAssets can be minted until some are redeemed. This is intended as a security measure. In the final deployment this cap will be gradually increased and finally removed. |
none | none | none | |
| Lot size | 20 XRP | 0.0004 BTC | 100 DOGE | |
| Collateral reservation fee (CRF) | 0.1% | 0.1% | 0.1% | |
| Redemption fee | 0.1% | 0.1% | 0.1% | |
| Redemption default premium | 10% | 10% | 10% | |
| Redemption default premium source Where does the premium come from when an agent fails to pay the redeemer on time? If the vault CR > 1.1, from the agent's vault. Otherwise, from the agent's vault and the collateral pool. |
From the vault | From the vault | From the vault |
Minting and Redeeming Payment Times#
| Parameter | XRP | BTC | DOGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| Underlying blocks for payment The number of underlying blocks during which the minter or agent can pay the underlying value. |
500 | 10 | 50 |
| Underlying seconds for payment The minimum time allowed for an agent to pay for a redemption or a minter to pay for minting. |
15 minutes | 2 hours | 50 minutes |
| Average block time The average time between two successive blocks on the underlying chain. |
2 seconds | 10 minutes | 1 minute |
| Time of proof availability The amount of time that proofs of payment or nonpayment must be available on the Data Connector. |
1 day | 1 day | 1 day |
| Amount of extra time per redemption The extra amount of time per redemption granted to an agent when many redemption requests occur in a short period of time. |
30 seconds | 60 seconds | 60 seconds |
Collateral Ratios#
| Parameter | XRP | BTC | DOGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| Backing factor | 100% | 95% | 100% |

| • Collateral call band CR | 1.9 | 1.9 | 1.9 |
| • Safety CR | 2.1 | 2.1 | 2.1 |
| Minting pool holdings required Minimum amount of pool tokens an agent must hold to be able to mint, as a percentage of the FAssets the agent is currently backing. Unlike pool and vault collateral ratios, if the agent's pool tokens go below this threshold, the agent does not go into liquidation, they just can't mint. |

Liquidation#
| Parameter | XRP | BTC | DOGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| CCB time Maximum time an agent can remain in CCB before liquidation starts. |
180 seconds | 180 seconds | 180 seconds |
| Liquidation premium Increases in steps, as time passes. |
Step 1: 5% Step 2: 10% Step 3: 15% |
Step 1: 5% Step 2: 10% Step 3: 15% |
Step 1: 5% Step 2: 10% Step 3: 15% |
| Liquidation step time Elapsed time before the liquidation premium advances to the next step. |
180 seconds | 180 seconds | 180 seconds |
| Liquidation source Where do the funds come from to pay for liquidations. |

| • Liquidated value | The agent's vault | The agent's vault | The agent's vault |
| • Premium | The collateral pool | The collateral pool | The collateral pool |
Default Agent Settings#
These are the default values for the agent bot provided by the Flare foundation. Agents are free to adjust these settings as they see fit.
| Parameter | XRP | BTC | DOGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| Minting fee | 0.25% | 0.25% | 0.25% |
| Pool share | 40% | 40% | 40% |
| Minting CR | |||
| • Agent vault | 1.6 | 1.6 | 1.6 |
| • Collateral pool | 2.3 | 2.3 | 2.3 |
| Exit CR | 2.3 | 2.3 | 2.3 |
| Top-up CR | 2.1 | 2.1 | 2.1 |
| • Top-up discount | 10% | 10% | 10% |
| Discount for agent self-close In self-close exit, the pool token holder burns FAssets to increase pool CR enough to enable exit. Normally, the burned FAssets are redeemed in the normal redemption process. However, if the closed amount is less than 1 lot, or on explicit request, the agent buys the underlying assets (at a discounted FTSO price, to compensate the agent for possible price fluctuations) and pays the exiting token holder in vault collateral. |
1% | 1% | 1% |
Rewarding#
| Parameter | XRP | BTC | DOGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| Challenger reward After a successful challenge for an illegal operation, the agent goes into full liquidation and the challenger is paid this reward from the agent's vault. |
300 $USD converted to vault collateral |
300 $USD converted to vault collateral |

| Confirmation by others If an agent or redeemer becomes unresponsive, anybody can confirm payments and non-payments some time after the request was made, and get a reward from the agent's vault. |

Time Locks#
These settings are far shorter in the Beta phases than in the final version, in order to be able to perform quick experiments.
