- 13:27After unanchoring from USD0++, Usual plans to activate the profit switch function and initiate 1:1 early redemption of collateral to stabilize the ecosystemRWA stablecoin issuer Usual announced on the X platform that it has recognized the significant community response triggered by its collateralized stablecoin USD0++ deviating significantly from 1 US dollar. Therefore, a series of measures will be launched to address user concerns and stabilize the ecosystem. It is reported that the "Revenue Switch" feature is scheduled to launch on January 13th, allowing Usual Protocol to share its earnings from real-world assets and protocol operations with the community. The team expects monthly income to be about $5 million, under current conditions annual return rate will exceed 50%. These distributions will take place once a week in order to consolidate USUAL's actual value, balance its economic model and revenue generated by the protocol. (The Revenue Switch function of Usual will officially start when more than 50% of USUAL tokens are pledged as USUALx. If this requirement is not met, it will automatically activate on February 1st, 2025. Once activated, all profits (up to $5 million per month) will flow towards those who have staked their holdings in USUALx in form of USD0.) In addition, the Usual Protocol team also stated that they would launch a "1:1 Early Redemption" feature next week which allows users to exchange USD0++ at an exchange rate of one dollar but requires them to forfeit some accumulated rewards as punishment.
