Unitas uses Off-Exchange Settlement (OES) to safeguard collateral while tapping into CEX liquidity for delta-neutral hedging. We work with Ceffu and Copper, leading custodians holding assets in segregated accounts, executing only approved instructions. Assets always stay under user ownership.

🛡 Risk Management
1️⃣ Accessibility – OES enables timely collateral flow. Delays may slow operations but never risk safety. Dual-custodian setup adds redundancy.
2️⃣ Exchange Failure – Custodians require exchanges to pre-post collateral, allowing 4–8h settlements. Multi-venue hedging reduces single-point dependency.

🌟 Why It Matters
• Secure off-exchange custody
• Deep liquidity without transfers
• Fast mint/redeem process
• Diversified counterparties

OES underpins USDu’s stability and sUSDu’s yield — combining institutional-grade security with DeFi scalability.
