TL;DR
- Usual has launched Revenue Switch, a feature that distributes 100% of the protocol’s monthly revenue to users who stake their tokens.
- The system is activated when more than 50% of the tokens are staked as USUALx or automatically on February 1, 2025.
- Revenue Switch dynamically adjusts the projected annual yield (APY), incentivizing long-term participants.
Usual has launched a new feature called Revenue Switch to revolutionize the reward system for holders of its USUALx token. The protocol aims to challenge the traditional stablecoin giants and offer an alternative that redistributes the value generated by its ecosystem. The new feature was designed to deliver direct value to users, ensuring the protocol’s sustainability and improving the performance of its participants’ assets.
Revenue Switch operates through a system that distributes 100% of the protocol’s monthly revenue to users who stake their tokens. This includes yields generated from fees and real-world assets (RWAs) backing USD0 and USD0++. Through this mechanism, USUALx holders will receive monthly rewards, estimated at around $5 million per month, based on the protocol’s current revenue levels.
The activation of this system depends on the community. Revenue Switch is activated once more than 50% of the protocol’s tokens are staked as USUALx. If this goal is not met, the feature will automatically be activated on February 1, 2025. From that point on, users who maintain their positions throughout the month will be eligible for rewards. Any withdrawals made during the month will void the reward eligibility.
Usual: A New Way to Distribute Wealth
One of the most important features of Revenue Switch is its ability to dynamically adjust yields, allowing the projected annual yield (APY) of stakers to continue increasing as the total value locked (TVL) and the protocol’s revenue grow. This unlimited APY potential will be key to reinforcing the system’s appeal to long-term participants.
The protocol is also continuing to develop other innovative features, such as a model similar to veModel, which will improve governance and staking utility. With these innovations, Usual aims to scale and improve its position within the decentralized finance (DeFi) market, looking to offer its users a sustainable way to generate value through participation in the protocol
