Purpose

Quantify premium or discount to the peg before you size transfers, LP deposits, or treasury moves that assume $1.

When to use it

  • A stablecoin prints away from $1 on your venue
  • Before depositing into a pool that assumes parity
  • When bridging value represented in stables
  • During market stress headlines

How to use it

  1. Enter the market price. Use the venue price you actually trade.
  2. Read deviation. See premium/discount versus the $1 target.
  3. Compare venues. Dislocations across markets can signal stress or opportunity — and risk.
  4. Size carefully. Depegs can widen suddenly; do not assume mean reversion.

Benefits

  • Fast peg health check
  • Pairs with slippage and converter tools
  • Clear during volatile sessions
  • Free and local

Pitfalls to avoid

  • Oracles and CEX marks differ
  • Peg can fail structurally
  • Not a redemption guarantee
  • Informational only

Noise versus stress

Tiny deviations are common. Persistent, widening discounts deserve caution. Use the peg checker as a dashboard number, then read issuer and market structure news.
