This version of Reserve’s rigorously audited and tested codebase kicks off our journey of enabling stable, asset-backed currencies for the world.
And in this post, we’ll explain how you can take part! 🔥

All Clear Milestone 🔥
Reserve Protocol was initially launched in Bogotá last October.
Since last July, we have engaged in five audits, along with constant internal testing, to provide RToken deployers and holders the most robust version of the protocol possible.
5/17
Our five auditors:
- Ackee
- Trail Of Bits
- Halborn
- Solidified
- Code4rena public audit
6/17
With this week's deployment of v2.0.0 of the protocol, we reach a version where we feel comfortable deploying capital into, and a version we feel comfortable inviting others to as well.
7/17
What does today mean?
From today, Reserve Protocol provides a permissionless platform for anyone to create yield-bearing, asset-backed currencies 🌎
8/17
We call them RTokens, and they:
- are backed 1:1 by a diversified basket of any tokenized asset, including fiat stablecoins, any asset deployed into defi, and tokenized real world assets
- provide programmable rev sharing across holders, stakers, or Ethereum addresses
9/17
- are censorship-resistant
- have proof of reserves on-chain, 24/7
- are over-collateralized and governed by the community in a fully decentralized way.
10/17
And today you will see press around the launch of our first RToken, the $eUSD - already deployed by @mobilecoin!
As RTokens are deployed and TVLs increase, you may see reasons to stake $RSR on them.
RSR stakers earn revenue from yield-bearing collaterals in exchange for over-collateralization, protecting against defaults.
We ask holders to inspect RTokens and make choices wisely!
12/17
And, with our Reserve cautiousness, even though we have tested rigorously: as with all new smart contracts, please proceed at your own risk.
This baby is new to the world!
13/17
Our goal is enabling the world to find alternatives to inflation-prone currencies, giving everyone in the world the power to maintain their purchasing power across time, and across borders.
14/17
In the beginning, we are looking to collaborate with the defi community to unlock the power of programmable money, through methods such as:
1️⃣ Creative RTokens designs
2️⃣ Collateral plugin development
3️⃣ RTokens integrations into defi
15/17
So for those attending #EthDenver, we are holding a $70k Hackathon ⚡️
Today, the pendulum swings from "quietly building" to "letting the world in", as we help foster the adoption of asset-backed currency, useable by all, with a focus on stability over time.
17/17
We invite all builders, heroes and dreamers...
who can see a world where money is stable and useable over decades, and want to make that a reality
1/5 With eUSD around the corner, hear @brady, head of BD @mobilecoin, and @0xJMG, head of Ecosystem @reserveprotocol, at #Davos talking inflation, unlocking RWAs, privacy and global money 🔥
2/5 Reserve's permissionless platform allows anyone to create an asset-backed currency, and @mobilecoin's mission is to make global payments inexpensive, secure and fast.
Listen in as we discuss where we think the future of money is going as we head towards eUSD's launch.
3/5 Once deployed and in the @moby_app, eUSD can be sent to any smartphone in the world, with:
- settlements under 5 seconds
- a fixed fraction of a cent cost, regardless of transaction size
- privacy and data-protection at every step
99 days since the protocol launch, and we are delighted to share the results of our Reserve x Gitcoin Hackathon 🚀
- 24 collaterals being added to the protocol to serve as backing for RTokens (bringing us to 42)
- 2 projects ready to be incubated
- Nine content winners
2/22 First up, our Innovation in DeFi awards, two projects receiving $15,000 each, projects we feel have a high chance of success in establishing RTokens in the world 🌎
Auto-adjusting RTokens, and minting RTokens without chasing collateral sources - both knockout features 🔥
3/22 WINNER 1: “Dynarev” Stablecoin Rating Framework by @Lavi_54 and @dabar_90
Dynarev (”Dynamic Review”) is a framework for dynamic risk ratings for stablecoins and DeFi protocols, with a goal of allowing RTokens to have auto-adjusted collateral baskets based on risk scores.
1/6 We've received quite a few questions about the relationship between #RSR and #RSV that is being used in the Reserve app.
☑️ "Can I stake my RSR on RSV?"
☑️ "Do RSR holders benefit from the growth of the Reserve app?"
Let us try and clear this up in this thread ⬇️
2/6 While RSV in its current form can not be staked on, our objective is to eventually replace all RSV balances in the app with RToken balances, and allow RSR to be staked on them.
RSV is centralized, and our vision for the app cannot be achieved with a centralized currency.
3/6 We'll come to a point where we'll want to start using a decentralized currency in the app in order to avoid the risks that come with centralized ones for our customers.
This currency will require decentralized governance & insurance, which is where RSR comes in.
1/5 Next up on sharing what the first Reserve dApp will look like: the RTokens dashboard ✅
Welcome to the homepage of the dApp - designed to give the user both a personal and global overview of the RTokens platform.
2/5 **Please note that all data shown in these images is for demonstration purposes and does not represent the current state of the Reserve app or the RToken platform.
Anyone will be able to view the up-to-date statistics once this dApp has launched 🙌
3/5 At top of the dApp, the user sees the RTokens and IP (Insurance Provider) tokens in their wallet, along with some basic stats such as market cap, balance & APY.
Clicking an RToken leads the user to a dedicated page for a more detailed inspection 🔍
