🌱 Usual’s 2025–2026 roadmap dropped yesterday.
Usual is no longer only a stablecoin protocol: it’s a revenue-sharing, composable financial layer.
From protocol mechanics to mission clarity, here’s what’s next at Usual, and why it matters 🧵👇
Today, Usual already operates at scale:
- $631M TVL, with $581M staked over the next 4 years
- $259M redistributed to users, including $13M to USUAL stakers
- $25M in annualized revenue (top 40 in DeFi)
- More than 59% of the USUAL supply staked
What’s next goes further.
Since January, every month unlocked a new layer. Started with a 64% APY and >$13M in revenue distribution.
Then, came fixed-rate lending with $200M filled instantly, vaults (Resolv, TAC & Superstate), trustless zk-powered yield, and finally, multichain on Base, BNB & Arbitrum.
🏛️ Now, Usual is no longer a stablecoin issuer only.
It’s now a revenue-sharing, composable financial layer, streaming up to 100% of all value back to users.
A “mutualized BlackRock” built for DeFi-native distribution.
The next phase begins with fundamentals.
Q2 2025:
- Synthetic Expansion with ETH0 followed by others later on (BTC0, SOL0, HYPE0 etc.).
- Weekly directional yield. Revenue now comes in USD0, ETH0, BTC0 and more for USUAL stakers.
- Lock-to-boost mechanics for USUAL stakers
Q3 2025:
- DAO buybacks USUAL whenever it trades below intrinsic value.
- New Vaults and automation (auto-restake etc.).
- New version of the “++” model: at first for ETH0++, then rolled out to USD0++ and others.
- ETH0 as a Gas Token: auto-claim, stake-on-claim & auto-reinvest.
Q4 2025 and more:
- Multi-Currency Model: EUR0, GBP0, JPY0 and others.
- New leverage & infra primitives
- Collateral & Yield Optimisation with idle capital into low-risk venues to lift yield.
- Payments & Banking Partnerships to settle in USD0 and selected synthetics.
🎯 With yield engines scaling, liquidity deepening, and synthetics expanding, Usual is entering the next cycle, completing its transition from a yield-bearing stablecoin to a massive DeFi Blackrock.
