Usual Secures Investment from Binance Labs: A New Direction in Decentralized Stablecoins

a year ago


Usual, a decentralized stablecoin platform, secured $10 million in funding during its Series A round, with contributions from Binance Labs and other key industry players such as Kraken Ventures.

A Bold Step into Stablecoins

Usual quickly established itself as one of the most innovative players in the stablecoin market, securing over $1.4 billion in total value locked (TVL). Unlike many projects that rely on fiat reserves, Usual integrates real-world assets like US Treasury Bills to tokenize real estate and commodities.

The Growing Appeal of Tokenized Real-World Assets

Usual's success is largely due to its focus on tokenizing real-world assets, improving the liquidity of traditionally illiquid assets by aggregating assets from major players like BlackRock and Mountain Protocol. However, the challenge remains to integrate these Real-World Assets (RWAs) into the DeFi space, as less than 5,000 users currently hold RWA assets.

A New Era for Governance in Stablecoins

Usual stands out by offering a fully decentralized governance model. Users can participate in decision-making processes, providing a level of control previously unavailable to stablecoin holders. Through the redistribution of profits via $USUAL tokens, users and participants share in the protocol's success.

Usual's investment and innovative approach showcase the significance and potential of decentralized solutions for the future of financial technologies, offering a new level of transparency and community involvement in financial governance.
