# ISC (Inflation-resistant Stable Currency)

## Overview
ISC is a Solana-native stablecoin designed as an inflation hedge rather than a USD peg. Launched in March 2023, ISC maintains collateralization through a diversified basket of assets (20% each: cash, commodities, treasuries, bonds, equities). Unlike traditional stablecoins pegged to fiat, ISC aims to preserve purchasing power against inflation.
