Usual USD0

Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.

DeFiLlama publishes the exact rules used to aggregate on-chain balances into the headline TVL figure shown on this page. The methodology below is the team's own source-of-truth description.

TVL represents the value held by the protocol

If a contract or vault isn't in this list, its balance does not contribute to the TVL displayed on Mantapex or DeFiLlama.

Usual USD0's governance or utility token carries a market capitalisation of $25M based on circulating supply at the latest DeFiLlama snapshot. The token's market cap ($25M) is small relative to deposits secured by the protocol ($107.2M); a mcap/TVL multiple of 0.23× is sometimes read as a discount, though it can also reflect minimal fee accrual to the token. A further $12.3M sits in the protocol's native staking modules — these deposits are typically locked, vote-bonded, or earning a share of fees, and they reduce the freely circulating float that can hit the market.

Market cap and supply figures are sourced from DeFiLlama's price feed (which reconciles CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, and on-chain DEX prices). Treasury and staking values reflect on-chain balances controlled by the protocol at last sync.

Usual USD0 is published as a versioned release inside the Usual protocol family. Releases inside the same family typically share governance, brand, and large parts of the audit history, but each version can run materially different contract logic — a release labelled v2 or v3 is not just a UI refresh. Newer versions inside a family typically launch with their own audit cycle and parameter set, so do not assume the previous release's safety record carries over without checking the linked audit reports.

Fork lineage and parent-protocol relationships are tracked by DeFiLlama for security and audit-history attribution; a fork inherits the upstream design but not necessarily the upstream audits or governance.

Usual USD0 operates in the RWA category of DeFi. It is deployed on Ethereum. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file).

Usual USD0 is a single-chain protocol, deployed exclusively on Ethereum — this concentrates execution risk but simplifies the trust model. Roughly 100% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Ethereum, Ethereum-staking, staking), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. Price discovery relies on 2 oracle providers (Chainlink, Pyth), which diversifies the data-feed surface but also expands the set of third parties users implicitly trust. Only one audit report is currently listed; users should weigh that against the protocol's TVL before depositing significant amounts. Its token market cap ($25M) is small relative to TVL ($107.2M) — a mcap/TVL ratio of 0.23 is often read as the token being structurally undervalued versus the activity it secures.
