# Backing

USDh is issued natively on Bitcoin Layer 1 and 2s and is designed to maintain a \$1 target value through 1:1 reserve backing and delta-neutral basis positions.

Hermetica publishes monthly attestations detailing protocol assets, liabilities, and reserve coverage.

## Assets

### Custodians

The BTC assets backing the protocol are securely held in institutional-grade custodians. All assets used to margin trades are stored in the off-exchange settlement solutions of Copper (Clearloop) and Ceffu (MirrorX) .

The custodians deposit addresses show the protocol inflows from minting transactions:

* Ceffu 1: [141Pg9KB1fLgqY3vTABhrKoKyQDD7jjj9a](https://mempool.space/address/141Pg9KB1fLgqY3vTABhrKoKyQDD7jjj9a)
* Ceffu 2: [16GCfT1bnJR6yZy5uZiBKDAc4HMyF2e9dS](https://mempool.space/address/16GCfT1bnJR6yZy5uZiBKDAc4HMyF2e9dS)
* Copper: [bc1qag4ur2guhalkl8hxx6uy9v0pq4e3l2sxlst9v5](https://mempool.space/address/bc1qag4ur2guhalkl8hxx6uy9v0pq4e3l2sxlst9v5)

## Liabilities

### Runes

The Runes protocol requires the entire token supply to be defined in the initial etching transaction. Both USDh and sUSDh have a total supply of 1 quadrillion tokens, stored in the protocol's reserve. Tokens enter circulation through minting and staking.

The circulating supply is verifiable on-chain by subtracting the tokens held in the reserve and protocol wallets from the total supply:<br />`Circulating supply = 1 quadrillion - reserve wallet - protocol wallets`

### Stacks

USDh token contract: [SPN5AKG35QZSK2M8GAMR4AFX45659RJHDW353HSG.usdh-token-v1](https://explorer.hiro.so/txid/SPN5AKG35QZSK2M8GAMR4AFX45659RJHDW353HSG.usdh-token-v1?chain=mainnet)

The circulating supply is verifiable on-chain by calling the `get-total-supply` method in the [USDh token contract](https://explorer.hiro.so/txid/SPN5AKG35QZSK2M8GAMR4AFX45659RJHDW353HSG.usdh-token-v1?chain=mainnet).

<Check>
  On the [block explorer](https://explorer.hiro.so/txid/SPN5AKG35QZSK2M8GAMR4AFX45659RJHDW353HSG.susdh-token-v1?chain=mainnet) the `get-total-supply` function can be called under the `Available functions` tab to independently verify USDh's circulating supply on Stacks.
