Welcome to Alto

Introduction

Alto is a decentralized, omnichain and over-collateralized stablecoin ecosystem. USDO is the Alto Protocol's native stablecoin, which is backed by network gas tokens and liquid staking tokens (LSTs), and is programmatically aligned to the U.S. Dollar.

The backbone of Alto's isolated collateral markets are ERC-4626 standardized vaults, which enable leverage composability on top of powerful yield strategies for maximal capital efficiency.

Alto additionally features an innovative incentive mechanism built around a dynamic escrow system known as "twL", which together with Alto's novel use of call option incentives offers a complete reimagination of the DeFi incentive model with a focus on Protocol Owned Liquidity (POL).
