## Executive Summary

**sEUR0** is the savings token for **EUR0**, Usual Protocol's euro-denominated stablecoin. Built on the **ERC-4626 tokenized vault standard**, sEUR0 converts EUR0 from a settlement asset into a yield-accruing savings instrument. Users deposit EUR0 into a permissionless vault and receive sEUR0 in return. Yield accrues through an **exchange rate** that appreciates over time, so redeeming sEUR0 returns more EUR0 than initially deposited. Balances do not rebase.

Yield is sourced from the protocol's underlying collateral stack -- primarily **European sovereign T-Bills and short-term money market funds** (euTBL by Spiko) -- and is distributed via the vault's exchange-rate appreciation mechanism. The distribution rate is **governance-set**, **variable**, and may be adjusted with market conditions. Yield is a cash-back of protocol revenues funded by EUR0 collateral returns; it is not guaranteed.

sEUR0 mirrors the design of **sUSD0** (Savings USD0), applying the same ERC-4626 vault pattern to the euro-denominated product. This consistent architecture across currencies simplifies DeFi integrations and provides a familiar savings experience regardless of denomination. sEUR0 was launched in **November 2025** and has been audited by **Hexens**.

| **Token standard**    | ERC-4626 (non-rebasing, accrual-based)                                      |
| **Underlying asset**  | EUR0 (euro stablecoin, backed 1:1 by euTBL)                                 |

## How sEUR0 Works

### Deposit and Withdrawal

1. **Deposit:** Submit EUR0 to the ERC-4626 vault. Receive sEUR0 representing the user's share of the vault's total EUR0-denominated assets.
2. **Accrue:** Yield accrues passively as the sEUR0/EUR0 exchange rate increases over time. No manual claiming or interaction is required.
3. **Redeem:** Burn sEUR0 at any time. Receive EUR0 equal to principal plus accrued yield (sEUR0 quantity x current exchange rate).

### Yield Mechanics

Yield to sEUR0 holders is a **cash-back in EUR0** funded by **protocol revenues** sourced from EUR0 collateral (euTBL). The exchange rate is set and updated by governance:

* **Not guaranteed:** Yield varies with available revenues and DAO policy decisions.
* **No claims needed:** Accrual is implicit via the exchange rate.
* **May be boosted at launch:** Governance may temporarily adjust distribution speed.

## Collateral & Risk Management (Inherited from EUR0)

sEUR0 wraps EUR0; it does not interact directly with the euTBL register. The backing flows operate via EUR0.

### Risk Parameters (EUR0 Layer)

* **Interest rate risk:** Managed via short-duration instruments and strict portfolio duration limits.
* **FX risk:** Zero tolerance -- only EUR-denominated assets accepted.
