What is Acala USD (AUSD)?

Acala USD (aUSD) is a decentralized stablecoin native to the Acala network, a DeFi-focused parachain built on Polkadot. Launched in 2020, Acala operates as a specialized layer within the Polkadot ecosystem. aUSD maintains a 1:1 peg to the US dollar through overcollateralized debt positions backed by diverse crypto assets. The stablecoin enables DeFi activity across Polkadot's interoperable network.

The Acala USD price API is a data endpoint that returns real-time price information for Acala USD (AUSD), a stablecoin native to the Acala network. The API delivers aggregated trade data sourced from on-chain and off-chain exchanges, providing developers with current market pricing for AUSD across multiple trading pairs and venues.

Developers integrate the Acala USD price API into applications to access verified price feeds for smart contracts, trading bots, portfolio trackers, and DeFi protocols that depend on accurate AUSD valuations. DIA offers this price API with a free testing endpoint available on this page, intended for evaluation purposes.

For production deployments, DIA builds custom, dedicated Acala USD feeds that are configurable by data sources, pricing methodology, and update frequency, available through DIA's Discord or Telegram.

Yes, DIA publishes a free Acala USD price API endpoint on this asset page. Developers can use it to test and evaluate price data for Acala USD without cost. The free endpoint is intended for testing and evaluation only, not for production use. For production deployments or customized Acala USD feeds, DIA builds dedicated price oracles configured by data sources, pricing methodology, and update frequency. Production requests can be submitted via DIA's Discord or Telegram channels.

A blockchain price oracle is an external data provider that delivers verified information from offchain sources to smart contracts operating on a blockchain. Price oracles enable contracts to access real-world market data they cannot access directly.

DIA can deploy an Acala USD price oracle on any supported chain, supplying onchain AUSD price data that smart contracts consume. Acala USD (AUSD) is the stablecoin native to the Acala network, a DeFi hub on Polkadot. DIA's price feeds aggregate individual trade data from 100+ exchanges across 3,000+ assets.

DIA's oracle infrastructure runs on Lasernet, an Ethereum layer-2 rollup, making each feed independently verifiable. For production deployments or custom configurations, developers can request a dedicated feed via DIA's Discord or Telegram, specifying data sources, pricing methodology, and update frequency.

DIA's Acala USD (AUSD) price is calculated by aggregating individual trade data from multiple on-chain and off-chain sources across numerous exchanges, rather than relying on a single exchange or liquidity pool. This approach captures trading activity across the broader market for AUSD, the native stablecoin on the Acala network.

The sources and pricing methodology used in the feed are transparent and publicly documented. For production deployments, the data sources, calculation method, and update frequency are configurable based on the requirements of the deploying application. Custom feeds can be requested through DIA's Discord or Telegram channels.

A free API endpoint for testing this feed is available on this asset's page.

Acala USD (AUSD) is a stablecoin native to the Acala network, designed for use within Acala's DeFi ecosystem. Developers can build applications that consume AUSD price feeds in several concrete ways:

Lending protocols can use AUSD price data to calculate collateralization ratios and trigger liquidations when borrower positions fall below safe thresholds.

Decentralized exchanges and automated market makers require accurate AUSD pricing to execute swaps and maintain peg stability against other assets.

Yield farming and liquidity mining platforms integrate AUSD price feeds to distribute rewards proportional to user contributions and calculate real-time APY.

Because AUSD is a stablecoin, price feeds serve primarily to detect deviations from its $1 target rather than track volatile appreciation, making them essential for peg maintenance and risk management across Acala's applications.

DIA aggregates individual trade data from 100+ exchanges to construct Acala USD price feeds, giving developers visibility into the exact sources and methodology behind each data point. This transparency allows teams to evaluate whether the sourcing strategy matches their application's risk profile.

Developers can request custom feeds configured by specific exchanges, pricing logic, and update cadence rather than accepting a one-size-fit-all approach. DIA deploys across 60+ blockchains, so Acala USD pricing is available on the chain where the application lives.

Each feed runs on Lasernet, DIA's Ethereum layer-2 rollup, enabling independent verification of price data outside the oracle contract itself. Developers can test DIA's free price-feed endpoint on this page to evaluate the feed before committing to production. Custom deployments are requested via DIA's Discord or Telegram.
