There are 2 types of collateral ratios. There are Effective Collateral Ratio (ECR) and Target Collateral Ratio (TCR) .
The ECR is based on the actual collateral ratio. The TCR is just a target ratio based on historical CoUSD prices.
There various configurations, to successfully launch and keep the system, only the development team is responsible for maintaining and, and adjusting them. If you dislike, you are more than welcome to raise the issues and vote after governance is released.
The system tries to peg CoUSD to be equivalent to $1.00 USD, but the collateral ratios for minting and redemption are sometimes different.
Minting enables us to create new CoUSD tokens from FTM and COFFIN. The COFFIN token will be burned in this process, while the FTM will be used as collateral. The ratio depends on the current TCR by default. This ratio is updated every 60 minutes and up (by default) .
When updating the TCR, the system checks the current CoUSD value in USD. If the value is above peg, the TCR will slightly decrease. If the value is below peg, the TCR will slightly increase.
CoUSD is entitled to the same percentage of collateral ratio, regardless of what collateral rates they were minted at. By default, the system uses the ECR as collateral ratio for redeeming.
The CoUSD consists of Collateral and COFFIN. The formula is as below.

For TCR & ECR, the oracle price is not measured through use of TWAP, but the same system use for the realtime price by the SpookySwap Pair Contract.

Disclaimer : Basically, Once Smart Contract is deployed, it’s hard to adjust/change the contract itself. However, we tried to allow for some system flexibly. To keep the stability of CoUSD, the development team will continue to make adjustments to maintain the integrity of the token, until this is now longer required the further we grow and the more capital that flows through the protocol. We would like all investors to be aware of this.

We highly recommend you to Do Your Own Research and never use funds within Coffin Finance that you cannot afford to lose. You won’t be compensated for any losses. All interactions with the associated smart contracts on the Fantom Opera and software on Coffin Finance are at your own risk.
