# SECTION 2a: Team and Product Information

Team’s Experience and Achievements:

The USDV team is comprised of professionals from both traditional finance (TradFi) and the cryptocurrency industry, collectively bringing a wealth of experience to the stablecoin project. The team has successfully bridged the best of Centralized Finance (CeFi) and Decentralized Finance (DeFi), creating a stablecoin that is always native, fully backed by best-in-class tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), and offers decentralized minting and yield through its innovative ColorTrace technology.

Matthew Commons: LinkedIn Link

Recent achievements include:

  • USDV is live on 8 of 10 top DEXes by volume (soon 9 with onboarding of Camelot)
  • Top 10 most traded token on PancakeSwap
  • Vetted and approved by Chainlink and Binance for price feed oracle deployment
  • Over 250K unique addresses and over 1.3M transactions since launch
  • The current market cap for USDV is approximately $25M, with a growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 520%

Product State and Audience Segments:

USDV is designed to empower ecosystem contributors by providing access to real-world yield (RWY) and facilitating seamless transactions across multiple blockchains without the need for wrapping or bridging. It is built upon the ERC-20 compatible Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) Standard, ensuring that it remains fungible across various platforms.
The product targets multiple audience segments, including:

  • DeFi users looking for attractive faming opportunities.
  • Institutional and retail investors seeking exposure to tokenized RWAs without sacrificing liquidity
  • Ecosystem contributors, including developers and projects, looking for a stablecoin with cross-chain capabilities and transparent operations to share yield passively based on circulation contribution

Impact of Incentives on Long-term Growth and Sustainability:

USDV is the only stablecoin with omnichain design and passive yield sharing properties. To clarify, yield sharing is done at a project level. By accepting USDV liquidity, DeFi projects unlock a new passive stream of income at zero cost, effectively providing Arbitrum projects more funds to grow. For example, USDV can co-create and incentivize liquidity pools on Camelot (DEX), the yield generated by USDV sitting in Camelot’s pools will be passed to the team, allowing them to re-invest natively, better fund its own operations or deploy elsewhere.

Incentive support from the chain is critical for attracting liquidity and growing TVL. The goal is for USDV liquidity on Arbitrum to reach critical mass, so that TVL and APR reaches balancing point to ensure long term sustainability.

Incentives play a critical role in USDV’s strategy to drive adoption and enhance its ecosystem. The project has introduced innovative mechanisms, such as the ColorTrace system, allowing ecosystem contributors to earn yield based on their contribution to USDV’s circulation. This model is designed to:

  • Encourage the minting and usage of USDV across various platforms and applications, increasing its circulation and utility.
  • Attract and retain users by offering tangible rewards for their contributions to the ecosystem, fostering a loyal community.
  • Support the sustainability of the project by aligning the interests of users, developers, and investors with the long-term success of USDV.

With a new stream of passive income generated via yield share, protocols integrating USDV are better positioned to achieve profitability and reach the ultimate goal of self-sufficiency. USDV shares 50% of the underlying yield and charges partner protocol zero fees for integration.

Example
PancakeSwap on BSC has reached a stable TVL of $8M - of which ~50% is USDV = $4M.
$4M * 5% APR * 50% / 12 = $8,000/month. USDV charges zero fees.

Off-chain business:

The USDV foundation is an non-profit organisation registered in the Cayman Islands. The Foundation operates as an orphan special purpose vehicle (SPV), a unique legal construct designed to isolate financial risk and to hold complete legal ownership of all reserve assets unencumbered.

What novelty or innovation does your product bring to Arbitrum?

USDV introduces several innovative features to the Arbitrum ecosystem, including:

Decentralized Minting and Yield: USDV is the first stablecoin that enables ecosystem contributors to mint and access real-world yield (RWY) directly. This is powered by the ColorTrace technology, which allows for decentralized minting for verified minters, making it accessible to any user.

Omnichain Fungibility: Built upon the ERC-20 compatible Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) Standard, USDV eliminates the need for wrapping and bridging, ensuring seamless transactions across multiple blockchains, including Arbitrum.

ColorTrace Technology: A novel token marking algorithm that attributes USDV circulation precisely to each contributor, enabling fair yield distribution. This technology ensures that USDV tokens are fully fungible regardless of their “color,” allowing users to transact interchangeably and permissionlessly across ecosystems.

As USDV permeates across the Arbitrum ecosystem, every project has the opportunity to enjoy new passive income pro-rated based on their contribution to the circulation - all at zero cost.

There is zero cost for projects to integrate USDV, just need to add USDV token address.

Is your project composable with other projects on Arbitrum?

USDV is designed for high composability within the Arbitrum ecosystem and beyond. Its use of the ERC-20 compatible OFT standard and the innovative ColorTrace technology ensures that USDV can easily integrate with various DeFi protocols, lending platforms, DEXs, and other blockchain-based applications. This compatibility fosters a collaborative environment where USDV can enhance liquidity, facilitate cross-chain transactions, and contribute to a more interconnected DeFi landscape.

Do you have any comparable protocols within the Arbitrum ecosystem or other blockchains?

USDV is a tokenized RWA backed stablecoin. The token is ERC-20 compatible - like USDC and USDT. USDV is unique on two aspects

Omnichain: Built on LayerZero’s OFT standard, USDV is the only omnichain stablecoin in the market as of writing.

Passive, equitable yield sharing with protocols: Leveraging ColorTrace, USDV allows every and any protocol within Arbitrum’s ecosystem to own a color. USDV passing through the protocol will be colored accordingly. The more USDV circulation attributable to one’s color, the more yield one gets.

There may be some other protocols with retail yield sharing (ie USDM, USDY), backed by crypto assets (DAI, USDe) - but none omnichain.

How do you measure and think about retention internally? (metrics, target KPIs)

Internally, USDV measures retention and success through several key performance indicators (KPIs), including:

Total Value Locked (TVL): Tracking the growth in TVL provides insights into the adoption and usage of USDV within the DeFi ecosystem.

Trading Volume: Measure of USDV Demand and utility

Market Cap: Overall liquidity within an ecosystem

APR: Perceived risk of our asset, and returns required for user liquidity provisioning

Incentives efficiency: Dollar TVL growth per dollar incentives deployed

Liquidity depth: USDV liquidity at key venues, supporting trades and liquidations

List of DEX and Lending partners: Number of venues allowing users to access, trade, borrow, lend, farm USDV

Peg integrity: How closely USDV stays pegged with USD, critical for user trust and stability

These metrics and KPIs guide USDV’s strategies for user acquisition, retention, and ecosystem development, aiming for long-term growth and sustainability within the Arbitrum ecosystem and the broader blockchain landscape.

Do you agree to remove team-controlled wallets from all milestone metrics AND exclude team-controlled wallets from any incentives included in your plan:

Yes, we agreed to remove team-controlled wallets from all milestone metrics.

Did you utilize a grants consultant or other third party not named as a grantee to draft this proposal?

We do not have a grant consultant, we speak to the Arbitrum Foundation directly.

# SECTION 2b: PROTOCOL DETAILS

Is the protocol native to Arbitrum?

Built on LayerZero’s OFT standard, USDV is the only omnichain stablecoin in the market as of writing. USDV is always native on each chain that it is deployed on, avoiding the risks & inconvenience of wrapped and bridged versions that have hampered ecosystems in the past.

# SECTION 3: GRANT INFORMATION

Requested Grant Size:

260,000 ARB tokens

The grant will be used for 1) unlocking Arbitrum-based crypto<>real world payment channels and 2) growing USDV liquidity to support such payment utility.

1. Crypto<>Real World payment

USDV is in talks with two major Arbitrum-based payment players: MugglePay and Fiat24. USDV wishes to get grants to support adoption with these players. It is common practice to incentivize users to transact by offering rebates.

a/ MugglePay

Cryptocurrency payments API built on Arbitrum
https://www.mugglepay.com/

Rebate calculation: USDV volume* Recommended % rebate

Recommended % rebate = 4% (same level as provided by other mainstream stables according to MugglePay)

Cumulative USDV txn volume milestones shall be met as a condition for releasing ARB grants.

b/ Fiat24

Cryptocurrency card issuer targeting European markets, backed by Visa›

Rebate calculation: USDV volume* Recommended % rebate

Recommended % rebate = 2% (recommended)

Cumulative USDV txn volume milestones shall be met as a condition for releasing ARB grants.

Grant request for Crypto<>Real World Payment portion

2. USDV liquidity to support on-chain transactions and payments

USDV seeks support to grow USDV<>USDC liquidity to $5M and USDV ARB liquidity to $1M.

a/ USDV<>USDC liquidity
USDV seeks higher-than-market APR to promote initial liquidity growth with native USDC.

ASK: Emission support

Emission support calculation
Target TVL * support APR * duration
Target TVL = $5M (across multiple venues)
Support APR = 30% (USDC/USDT stable pairs are at 15% APR)
Duration = 12/52
$5M * 30% * 12/52 = $350K

Current status: $500K TVL USDV<>USDC pool on TraderJoe.

b/ USDV<> ARB liquidity
Competitive APR to support ARB liquidity

ASK: Emission support

Emission support calculation
Target TVL * support APR * duration
Target TVL = $1M (across multiple venues)
Support APR = 200% (ARB/USDC pairs are at 120%-300% APR)
Duration = 12/52
$1M * 30% * 12/52 = $70K

Current status: No USDV<>ARB pools live yet.

Grant request for Liquidity growth portion
image

The following TVL milestones shall be met as a condition for releasing ARB grants.

USDV may setup pools in more than one DEX (i.e. TraderJoe, Camelot and Uniswap). TVL milestones are based on total TVL across different venues (i.e sum of TVL of a specific USDV pair in different DEXes).

Reference growth - BSC
USDV liquidity grew from $4M to $11M in three months by partnering two DEXes: PancakeSwap and THENA.

USDV contribution: ~$50K incentives/month and $4M own LP. This was achieved with zero incentive support from BSC Foundation.

USDV incentive support has been reducing over time because of performance. For example - this March, Our USDV<> ETH pair with THENA developed into a profit-making pool requiring zero incentives. Ie THENA is making pool fees plus passive yield.

Grant Matching:

Baseline: USDV shares yield with its ecosystem partners. Assuming an average of $10M USDV TVL at current T-bill APR, this implies $500K p.a yield generated, of which 50% is returned to our ecosystem partners. Ie $250K generated for Arbitrum.

For lending protocols, we provide greater yield sharing where the dollar value varies depending on the market borrow/supply conditions, but also expected to be in the hundreds of 1000s range.

Essentially the cumulative yield generated for the Arbitrum ecosystem will evolve to par or be greater than the funds requested in this grant.

Additional: Irrespective of DAO and Foundation support, USDV has been providing direct liquidity and monthly incentives to grow Arbitrum’s ecosystem.

This includes but is not limited to $1M in own LP and monthly incentives of $40,000/month distributed across partners.

# SECTION 4: GRANT OBJECTIVES, EXECUTION AND MILESTONES

The primary objectives of the USDV grant proposal are to:

  • Enhance Liquidity: Significantly increase the liquidity of USDV on key Arbitrum-based DEXes (Camelot, Trader Joe, Uniswap) to facilitate smoother transactions and more stable pricing.
  • Expand Use Cases: Collaborate with strategic partners (Fiat24, MugglePay) to explore and develop new payment use cases for USDV, driving its adoption beyond traditional DeFi applications.
  • Drive Adoption and User Growth: Implement targeted marketing and community engagement strategies to grow USDV’s user base within the Arbitrum ecosystem.
  • Strengthen Ecosystem Integrations: Foster innovation and utility by supporting projects and developers integrating USDV within the Arbitrum ecosystem through ecosystem grants.

Execution Strategy:

  • Token Distribution Method: The grant will support liquidity incentives through farming, staking, and potentially new mechanisms like referral programs to encourage long-term holding and usage of USDV.
  • Incentivizing Key Pools: Specific allocations will be made for liquidity pools on Camelot, TraderJoe, and Uniswap, focusing on USDV and other eligible assets to enhance depth and reduce slippage.
  • Use of Funds: Allocations will cover liquidity incentives, marketing campaigns, community events, and ecosystem grants, with a keen eye on risk management to ensure sustainable growth.

What mechanisms within the incentive design will you implement to incentivize “stickiness” whether it be users, liquidity or some other targeted metric?

To ensure “stickiness” of users and liquidity, USDV will:

Implement a tiered rewards system, encouraging longer-term staking or liquidity provision.

Explore loyalty rewards for continuous participation in the ecosystem.

Leverage the ColorTrace technology to attribute rewards directly proportional to the contribution towards USDV’s circulation and utility.

Specify the KPIs that will be used to measure success in achieving the grant objectives and designate a source of truth for governance to use to verify accuracy.

Success will be measured using the following KPIs:

Growth in Liquidity: Measured by the TVL in key USDV pools on Arbitrum-based DEXes.

User Base Expansion: Increase in active wallet addresses holding or transacting with USDV.

Adoption Rate: Usage metrics of USDV in new payment use cases developed with Fiat24 and MugglePay.

Community Engagement: Participation rates in marketing and community events.

These KPIs indicate the grant’s success by directly measuring the liquidity, adoption, and engagement objectives set forth.

Grant Timeline and Milestones:

Q1-Q2: Focus on liquidity incentives and initial marketing campaigns.

KPI: USDV reaches $10M. TraderJoe and Camelot live. Radiant live.

Q3: Launch of new payment use cases with Fiat24 and MugglePay. Mid-point KPI: Implementation of at least two new use cases and a 10% increase in transaction volume.

KPI: $15M TVL

Q4: Evaluation and expansion of successful strategies, additional ecosystem grants. Final KPIs: 50% increase in TVL, 30% increase in active user addresses, and successful integration of USDV in payment solutions.

KPI: $20M TVL
