rubric v1.7.0

Algorithmic / under-collateralized stablecoin

Convex Finance's assessment for RD-F-069 — scored not_applicable on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Convex Finance does not issue a stablecoin. cvxCRV is a derivative wrapper (1 CRV locked = 1 cvxCRV issued) backed fully by locked veCRV in the VoterProxy -- not an algorithmic or under-collateralized stablecoin design. Per PD-024, F069 is lending-only and not applicable. Note: cvxCRV trades at ~60% discount to CRV in secondary markets due to structural one-way conversion illiquidity, not under-collateralization.
