VALUE RECEPIENTS
PERI Stakers
PERI stakers can stake their PERI and receive rewards. But by staking, they also take on the risk of 'debt.' When someone stakes their PERI, to then immediately unstake it they need to burn as much pUSD as they just minted — this pUSD figure is their debt, and all PERI stakers' debt is pooled together (with each staker holding a proportion of it). But this pooled debt is also where profits and losses from people trading on PERI.Exchange is represented, so a staker's debt can change over time depending on traders' overall profits and losses. This is the risk they assume when staking their PERI.
USDC Stakers
It is possible to mint Pynths by staking USDC. However, USDC stakers' debt is denominated in pUSD. It does not get added to the system's pooled debt, and thus does not fluctuate depending on traders' outcomes. The ratio of PERI to other coin will be 8:2, which can be changed by PERI DAO later
DAI Stakers
It is possible to mint Pynths by staking DAI too. However, DAI stakers' debt is also denominated in pUSD. It does not get added to the system's pooled debt, and thus does not fluctuate depending on traders' outcomes. The ratio of PERI to other coin will be 8:2, which can be changed by PERI DAO later
