Usual Model

PreviousWhy Usual?NextFAQ

Last updated 1 month ago

Usual is centered around three core products:

  • Usual Stablecoin: Designed for payments, trading counterparty, and collateral use.

  • Usual LST: A yield-generating product.

  • Usual Governance Token: Empowering holders with decision-making authority within the protocol.

  • User Flow: USDC is swapped against USD0 and can be staked to earn USD0++, allowing users to eventually earn ownership in the protocol’s token, $USUAL, which is used for governance.

  • Infrastructure Layer: A Multi-Collateral Aggregator gathers liquidity and invests in on-chain T-bills from the users’ USDC, with 100% of the revenue going to the protocol’s treasury, which is managed by $USUAL holders.

  • Distribution Model: $USUAL is issued in a deflationary manner, with 90% of protocol revenue supporting operations, stakers, and liquidity providers, while 10% is distributed to $USUAL* holders.
