Alchemix v3 Transmuter Turns Discounted alAssets Into Fixed-Rate Yield

**The v3 Transmuter** is Alchemix's peg stability mechanism that converts discounted alAssets into their underlying assets at a 1:1 ratio. **How it works:** - When alAssets trade below peg, users can deposit them into the Transmuter - The protocol burns these alAssets and locks in today's discount - Users receive the underlying asset 1:1 at a predetermined maturity date - This creates a fixed-rate yield opportunity while supporting the peg Alchemix v3 launched with comprehensive audits from Spearbit, Cantina, Nethermind, yAudit, Immunefi, and independent researchers. The upgrade introduces 90% LTV vaults, new Mix-Yield Tokens, and the Fixed-Duration Transmuter. Liquidity providers benefit from tighter pegs, more reliable fees, and reduced volatility risk.
