Introduction to $RUSD

What is $RUSD?

$RUSD is the native decentralized stablecoin of the RealFI ecosystem, pegged 1:1 to the US Dollar. Unlike other stablecoins, the value of $RUSD is over-collateralized by a meticulously designed, diversified treasury of yield-generating assets. This treasury not only includes highly liquid on-chain assets from mature DeFi protocols on the BNB Chain (like Venus, Aave) but also innovatively incorporates over-collateralized, off-chain Real World Asset (RWA) loans, rigorously vetted through our RealFI Launchpad platform. This makes $RUSD not just a stable medium of exchange, but an engine of continuous value creation from its underlying assets.

The Dual-Token Model: $RUSD vs $sRUSD

To clearly separate the "transactional" and "savings" attributes of the stablecoin, we have designed a dual-token model:

  • $RUSD (RealFI USD):

    • Positioning: A stable unit of account and medium of exchange.

    • Value: Its value is strictly pegged to approximately $1.00.

    • Use Case: Designed for transactions and payments, such as subscribing to assets on the Launchpad or being used as a base currency in other DeFi protocols. It does not generate interest itself, much like digital cash in your wallet.

  • $sRUSD (Staked/Savings RUSD):

    • Positioning: The protocol's yield-bearing certificate and investment vehicle.

    • Value: Its value is not equal to $1.00. Instead, as the protocol's treasury continuously accumulates yield, its value relative to RUSD will consistently grow.

    • Use Case: Designed for earning real yield and long-term savings.

You can understand it this way: $RUSD is the dollar bill, while $sRUSD is a deposit receipt for a high-yield savings account that appreciates in value over time.
