USX stablecoin experienced a notable depegging incident yesterday, plummeting to $0.8 amid severe liquidity drainage. The sharp drop triggered immediate market panic, with investors rushing to offload their holdings. However, the team behind the protocol responded swiftly by injecting fresh liquidity into the market, which successfully restored the peg in short order. That said, the scare exposed real vulnerabilities—continued selling pressure suggests another liquidity crunch could be lurking around the corner. This episode underscores the inherent risks in stablecoin ecosystems, especially when liquidity dries up faster than it can be replenished.

USX this round is really exciting. Did anyone really buy in at 0.8? It feels like the team is just patching things up.

USX this time really scared me. When it dropped below 0.8, I thought it was over... Luckily, the team responded quickly, or it would have been another bloodbath.
