# IBS-The future money

#### What is IBS?

IBS（Intelligent Bonding System) is the native token of Pots Money — the monetary layer of the POTS ecosystem.

It is not a stablecoin. It is not a governance token. IBS is a new kind of asset: an algorithmic, collateral-backed token designed to be the internet-native money web3.

{% hint style="success" %}
💡 One Line Definition

IBS is an algorithmic token where every single unit is backed by at least $1 USD worth of LP collateral.
{% endhint %}

#### What Backs IBS?

IBS is not empty air. Every IBS in circulation is supported by real, verifiable on-chain value across three layers:

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="266.37890625"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Backing Layer</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td>LP (Liquidity Pool)</td><td>The primary collateral. Every IBS issued is backed by at least $1 USD equivalent in LP assets.</td></tr><tr><td>RBS (Reserve Bond Supply)</td><td>A secondary reserve buffer that absorbs volatility and supports the peg during market stress.</td></tr><tr><td>Safety Treasury</td><td>A protocol-owned treasury that acts as the last line of defense, ensuring long-term solvency.</td></tr></tbody></table>

{% hint style="success" %}
🛡️ Fully Backed, Always

The collateral backing IBS is publicly verifiable on-chain at any time. No trust required — just check the contracts.
{% endhint %}

#### How IBS is Issued

IBS is an algorithmic token. It is not pre-mined or arbitrarily distributed.

* ✅ Mintable: New IBS is minted when sufficient collateral is deposited into the protocol.
* 🔥 Burnable: IBS is burned when RBS & YRF activated, reducing supply accordingly.

This mechanism ensures that the total supply of IBS always reflects the actual collateral held by the protocol — expanding and contracting with real demand.

#### On-Chain Transparency

IBS is deployed on BNB Smart Chain (BSC). You can verify its total supply, holder distribution, and all on-chain activity at any time.
