What is Reserve Protocol?
Reserve Protocol is a decentralized platform that enables the creation of stablecoins, called RTokens, which are backed by a diverse array of tokenized assets. Unlike traditional stablecoins that rely on fiat currency reserves, RTokens are fully collateralized using a combination of digital assets, including stablecoins and other cryptocurrencies. The protocol’s goal is to provide a more resilient and decentralized form of stablecoins, ultimately creating a currency that can remain stable independently of fiat currencies.
The Reserve Protocol employs a dual-token system consisting of Reserve (RSV) and Reserve Rights (RSR) tokens. While RSV acts as the stablecoin, fully backed by a basket of assets, RSR is used for governance and maintaining the overcollateralization of RTokens.
Dual-Token Mechanism: RSV and RSR
Reserve Stablecoin (RSV)
RSV is the stablecoin created by the Reserve Protocol, designed to maintain a stable value through a 1:1 backing with collateral assets stored in the Reserve Vault. The basket of assets that back RSV can be regularly updated by the protocol’s governance. Initially, these assets are typically stablecoins like USDC
