THE PROBLEM

Prices move
fast.
Liquidation
doesn't wait.

On Mezo, a MUSD loan is liquidated once its collateral ratio falls below 110%. And when MUSD is redeemed, the loans with the lowest ratios are hit first. Watching a chart all day is not a plan.

110% IS THE LINE. STAY WELL ABOVE IT.

HOW IT WORKS

Set it once. Stay safe.

YOU SET THE LINE.
01

Open your vault

A personal vault holds your MUSD loan. Only you can withdraw from it.

02

Set your line

Choose a trigger and a target ratio, then fund a reserve of MUSD and BTC.

03

Defense runs itself

When your ratio hits the trigger, anyone can repay debt or add collateral from your reserve, back to your target. You get a Telegram alert.

STRESS TEST

Test your loan
against a crash.

Drop the BTC price and watch your ratio, your reserve and every defense step, with and without Ballast. In the app, this runs on your real position.

OUR BELIEF

Borrowing against
Bitcoin should be
boring.

Fewer liquidations mean healthier loans and a steadier Mezo. Ballast sits on top of Mezo's own MUSD contracts: open source, no custody, no admin keys.

Ballast lowers liquidation risk; it cannot remove it. Reserves can run out and prices can gap. Testnet prototype, unaudited.
