Strategic Asset Reserve

Definition

A Strategic Asset Reserve is a dedicated pool of assets held by an entity, often a stablecoin issuer or a decentralized autonomous organization, to maintain the stability, solvency, or operational capacity of a digital asset protocol. These reserves are typically composed of various assets, including fiat currencies, government bonds, or other cryptocurrencies. Their purpose is to provide a buffer against market volatility or unexpected financial demands. The reserve functions as a crucial backstop for protocol integrity.
