# How do f(x) Protocol stablecoins maintain stability?

Stablecoins can be minted and redeemed at the oracle price, ensuring seamless functionality. For fxUSD, several mechanisms guarantee a perfect peg:

* f(x) Protocol establishes and maintains a deep fxUSD/USDC liquidity pool.
* The fxUSD stability pool offers high and sustainable yields derived from stETH staking, xPOSITION opening fees, and FXN emissions. This stability pool, which accepts both USDC and fxUSD, also acts as a peg keeper by purchasing fxUSD when it trades below peg and selling it back to USDC when it trades above.
* xPOSITION cannot be opened if fxUSD is trading below peg.
* fxUSD can always be redeemed at the oracle price for stETH or WBTC, safeguarding it against any significant de-peg events.\

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://fxprotocol.gitbook.io/fx-docs/faq/how-do-f-x-protocol-stablecoins-maintain-stability.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
