Built, tested, rebuilt, and now deployed. The $USDv program is live on @solana mainnet. The foundation for a dollar that remains liquid, usable, and productive wherever it moves is now in place. USDv is coming.

I’m VERY excited to announce I’m joining @solomon_labs as CMO! There have been a few clear winners going into the next cycle: RWAs, perps, stablecoins. There is one jarring problem with stables today: holders put up all the risk, issuers get all the upside. More than $10 BILLION of it annually. Every stablecoin is effectively a loan. The holder is the lender. The issuer keeps the interest. If you want any upside, it means staking, wrapping, trusting 5 smart contracts. Solomon’s stablecoin $USDv, soon to launch publicly, flips this on its head: a single user opt-in means earning by default… indefinitely. Using any other stable is leaving money on the table, and you don’t need to change how you behave onchain. Earn: •⁠ ⁠In your wallet •⁠ ⁠In an LP •⁠ ⁠In a lending market •⁠ ⁠As idle liquidity The big picture with Solomon is more than just USDv. USDv is a showcase of an engine that can power any asset and allow users to route their rewards. In a future state, this COULD look like: •⁠ ⁠Hold a tokenized stock in wallet 1 •⁠ ⁠Receive a dividend to wallet 2 •⁠ ⁠Choose to receive the dividend in $ANSEM, $CARDS, $SOL or any other currency Excited to be building this future on @solana as part of the @MetaDAOProject ecosystem. The $SOLO token represents ownership onchain in this journey, which means no token games or gimmicks. A real breath of fresh air for me. A big thanks to @oxranga and team for the opportunity. If you made it this far, be sure to give @solomon_labs a follow!

Earning shouldn’t require wrapping, staking, or depositing. With USDv, holders operate onchain exactly as they always have, while the economics follow. No extra steps. No tradeoff between utility and upside. Productive dollars.

MetaDAO will propose to allocate $2 million of its treasury to USDv. Our first treasury adoption begins with the ecosystem that helped make Solomon possible. The rollout begins.

Solomon is on Capitol Hill today with a simple message for the Senate: Voters want CLARITY. Clear rules protect consumers. Clear rules protect developers. Clear rules let American companies build the next generation of dollar infrastructure here at home. That is what we are fighting for.

$814 million a month. That is how much interest stablecoin issuers earn from you. You hold the stablecoins. Issuers keep the economics. USDv changes this. We put the earning back in your hands.
