Resolv: How to Achieve Real On-Chain Returns with the Three-Currency Model As a new generation DeFi stablecoin protocol, Resolv's core product is USR (crypto-native, delta-neutral stablecoin), which achieves a peg to the US dollar through hedging with ETH/BTC spot and perpetual contracts. The project adopts a "USR stablecoin + RLP risk layer + RESOLV governance token" three-currency model, aiming for high capital efficiency, native yield, and decentralized risk management, making it a representative of the "second generation" stablecoins in the DeFi space. The core of Resolv is its delta-neutral strategy, a complex financial engineering approach designed to maintain the 1:1 peg of the USR stablecoin to the US dollar without relying on traditional fiat collateral. The following RESOLV contains key project data.
➤ Detailed Explanation of Tokens and Economic Models Three-token model of USR stablecoin + RLP risk layer + RESOLV governance token 1. USR Stablecoin 🔸 Collateralized primarily by ETH and BTC, users can mint or redeem USR (ERC-20 standard) at a 1:1 ratio. 🔸 Utilizes a Delta-neutral strategy: the protocol holds spot long positions while shorting equivalent perpetual contracts on CEX/DEX to achieve slight immunity to overall asset price fluctuations against the US dollar. 🔸 USR supports stUSR (interest-bearing version), allowing users to earn native protocol yields (such as ETH staking, funding rates). 2. RLP (Resolv Liquidity Pool) 🔸 Acts as a risk buffer and yield enhancement layer for the protocol, absorbing systemic risks such as negative funding rates, liquidation differences, and counterparty defaults. 🔸 RLP holders bear the risks and receive floating yields higher than USR (dynamic APY, market-driven). 🔸 RLP prices fluctuate with the overall collateralization rate and profitability of the protocol. 3. RESOLV Governance Token 🔸 Core of governance and utility, holders can participate in decisions regarding protocol parameters, upgrades, and treasury allocations. 🔸 Implements a time-weighted staking reward mechanism, with a maximum multiplier of 2x, incentivizing long-term holding. Total supply of 1 billion tokens, distribution structure detailed in the table below.
➤ Team and Funding 1. Founding Team CEO Ivan Kozlov, Co-founder Tim Shekikhachev, and CTO Fedor Chmilev all have a strong background in financial engineering and derivatives structuring, having previously worked at VTB Capital, KPMG, and Moscow Credit Bank. 2. Investors and Partners Seed round funding of $10 million, with investors including Cyber. Fund, Maven11, Coinbase Ventures, Arrington Capital, Animoca Brands, Delphi Labs, and others. Strategic partners: Fireblocks (custody), Hypernative (security monitoring), Binance (liquidity and market), etc.
➤ Comparison of Resolv and Ethena Competitors In the Delta neutral stablecoin sector, Ethena (USDe) is the most direct competitor to Resolv. Both mechanisms are similar, but there are key differences in risk management and the level of decentralization. Resolv's innovation lies in its dual-token model (USR & RLP), which separates stable users from high-yield risk-takers, achieving refined risk management.
