Everything onchain is AUSD

Collateral, debt, repayments and sends are all in AUSD. Because collateral and debt share a currency, the collateral ratio cannot drift with exchange rates, and the contract needs no oracle.

Rate source

On testnet: public ECB reference rates. In production: the payment partner’s rate.
