Mountain Protocol operates through a dual-user system where primary users (verified businesses) can mint and redeem USDM directly at $1, while secondary users can acquire tokens through exchanges and DeFi protocols. The protocol uses a daily rebasing mechanism to distribute yields, with reserves held in segregated accounts composed exclusively of short-term US Treasuries to minimize counterparty risk.

The project issues USDM, a permissionless yield-bearing stablecoin that provides daily rewards to holders while maintaining full collateralization through US government securities. USDM operates as an ERC20 token across multiple blockchains including Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, and others, offering institutional-grade stability with bankruptcy remote asset protection.

Mountain Protocol is a regulated financial institution that operates a yield-bearing stablecoin protocol backed by short-term US Treasuries.
