Why usual?

• Stablecoins can be said to be the foundation of the cryptocurrency industry. People need stablecoins as a use case for large-scale payments, and stablecoins also play a key role in the industrys Mass Adoption. As of July 30, 2024, the total market value of stablecoins is $168 B, and from the stablecoin market value overview chart below, it can be seen that the two centralized stablecoins, USDT and USDC, together account for about 90% of the total market value of stablecoins.

• Stablecoins are the money printing machines of Crypto. The two giants Tether and Circle generated more than $10 billion in revenue in 2023, with a valuation of more than $200 billion. Tether made a record profit of $4.52 billion in Q1 2024. Such a huge profit monopoly is obviously contrary to the spirit of encryption, so various decentralized stablecoin projects are constantly emerging. According to the collateral amount, decentralized stablecoins can be divided into over-collateralized represented by MakerDAO (DAI), equal collateralized represented by Ethena (USDe), and under-collateralized (currently there are no large-cap projects).

• There have been many successful decentralized stablecoin projects, but the collateral of these projects is generally crypto assets, so a sophisticated mechanism needs to be designed to combat the volatility of the currency price. If RWA (real world assets) are introduced, this problem will be solved. RWA is growing and in the ascendant, with RWA on the blockchain growing by more than 800% in 2023. usual.money introduces U.S. Treasury bonds as collateral, while providing transparency and security based on Ethereum smart contracts, and returning profits to the community and contributors. This design can be said to be tether-on-chain, combining the 1: 1 RWA characteristics of centralized stablecoin protocols with the security and transparency of the chain.

Mechanism Analysis

Mortgage and Minting

• $USD 0 is the first RWA stablecoin that aggregates various US Treasury tokens and can be minted on Usual in two different ways:

  a. Direct RWA deposit: Users deposit eligible RWA into the protocol and receive an equivalent amount of USD 0 at a 1:1 ratio.

  b. Indirect USDC/USDT deposit: Users deposit USDC/USDT into the protocol and receive USD 0 at a 1:1 ratio. This indirect method involves third-party collateral providers who provide the necessary RWA collateral. This allows users to obtain USD 0 without having to directly handle RWA.

  RWA has grown significantly, but still only accounts for a small portion of the underlying assets in the cryptocurrency market. The main challenge lies in liquidity issues, including the difficulty faced by institutions in liquidating RWA holdings in the secondary market, and retail investors are unable to obtain RWA returns in the core DeFi ecosystem. Through USD 0, Usual is able to seamlessly integrate RWA token liquidity from platforms such as Hashnote .

thu nhập

• $USD 0++ is an added value Treasury note, USD 0++ is a wrapped and locked version of USD 0.

• $USUAL is the governance and reward token of the Usual protocol.

• The income comes from staking: users lock their USD 0 in USD 0 Liquid Bond (USD 0++) for a period of time. The income can be obtained in one of the following two ways:

1. USUAL Yield: Liquid Bond holders can receive their daily yield in the form of USUAL tokens (calculated every block).

2. Basic Interest Guarantee: USD 0++ holders are guaranteed to receive a return at least equal to the return on their USD 0 collateral (risk-free return). To achieve this, users must lock their USD 0++ for a specified period of time (currently designed to be 6 months). At the end of this period, users can choose to receive the Basic Interest Guarantee in the form of USUAL tokens or USD 0 risk-free return.

It is important to note that regardless of whether USD 0++ is obtained through primary issuance or the secondary market, holders are automatically entitled to receive USUAL tokens.
