Rongchai Wang Dec 24, 2024 06:56 OKX Ventures invests in USUAL, a decentralized stablecoin protocol integrating Real-World Assets, enhancing DeFi with governance and ownership features. OKX Ventures, the investment division of the leading cryptocurrency exchange OKX, has announced its investment in USUAL, a decentralized stablecoin issuer. This strategic move aligns with OKX Ventures’ mission to foster projects that converge traditional finance with decentralized finance (DeFi) while championing true decentralization, according to OKX Ventures.

The protocol’s flagship product, USD0, is a decentralized stablecoin fully backed by tokenized RWAs, such as U.S. Treasury Bills (T-Bills), managed in a decentralized and permissionless manner.
