According to Usual’s X post, the stablecoin uses a revenue-based model that prioritizes its community members.
According to data from CoinMarketCap, the Usual stablecoin went up by 0.08% and is current trading hands at $0.9991. The stablecoin has a market cap of $345.71 million and a total supply of 346 million USUAL tokens.
Binance provides a total token supply of 4 billion USUAL tokens, with 7.5% of the supply being allocated to rewarding users. The initial circulating supply for the stablecoin’s listing will be 12.37% of the total token supply, amounting to 494,600,000 USUAL.
Usual will be available for pre-market trading in USUAL/USDT trading pairs. At the moment, it is only available for pre-market trading with the exchange stating that the pre-market closing time and spot listing time will be announced at a later date.
Last week, the stablecoin issuer completed a round of community funding which raised a total of $1.5 million. The Echonomist, Breed Syndicate, and Comfy Capital were among the investors participating in the community round.
Usual introduced the stablecoin USD0 in February 2024, describing it as a permissionless stablecoin backed by real-world assets. It also serves as a governance token that allows users to vote on the network’s future.
