Usual
Product Designer
Usual was born from a simple observation: dominant stablecoins operate like centralized banks — they capture billions in revenue and don’t redistribute it. In parallel, most crypto tokenomics have failed to deliver long-term fairness, favoring insiders over users
We’re here to change that
Usual is the first stablecoin protocol that gives back ownership and value to its users. By turning users into stakeholders, we’re building a more equitable financial infrastructure — one where value flows back to the community
In just a few months, we built and launched a full protocol from scratch, introduced a new kind of stablecoin backed by tokenized US Treasuries (USD0), its yield-bearing counterpart (USD0++), and a revenue-sharing governance token ($USUAL). The protocol reached $1.8B in TVL at its peak and continues to evolve with major product and governance upgrades
We’re a small, focused team of DeFi natives with a strong execution track record and a clear ambition to reshape how value circulates in crypto.
