OUSD: redemption value, spread and APY
OUSD is Origin Protocol's rebasing dollar stablecoin. ArbScreener compares what OUSD costs on a DEX with the USDC it redeems for on-chain, and shows the gap as a spread and an APY — priced in USDC, not USD.

How ArbScreener prices OUSD
OUSD is a dollar-rebasing token that redeems 1:1 through an asynchronous withdrawal queue. The queue's wait cannot be read reliably on-chain, so the board uses a fixed estimate.
The redemption spread is what redeeming returns minus what buying costs on a DEX, as a fraction of the cost, at a standard quote size and net of the protocol's fee. The APY annualizes that spread over the redeem wait (counted as at least one day), so a discount that takes weeks to collect ranks below the same discount collected today. Everything is in USDC, never USD.
