Why use Resolv?
As a stablecoin architecture, Resolv has a number of benefits:
Market-neutrality. ETH spot price changes and corresponding perpetual futures cancel each other, resulting in a stable net value.
Independence from fiat currencies. There is no $1 in the world directly attached to Resolv tokens. The only link is a claim to the exchange (in case it is a CEX), efficiently managed in terms of counterparty risk.
Capital efficiency. Minting $1 worth of USR or RLP requires $1 worth of assets (net of minting costs). No need to overcollateralize stablecoin position.
Peg. USR can be redeemed at all times for $1 worth of ETH, so any deviation from the peg can be promptly pulled to zero by arbitrage activities.
Insurance Layer. USR is protected by RLP, a scalable insurance layer.
Profitable business model. The treasury allocates inventory into staking and earns additional funding fees on futures positions.
