Launch Details and Verification Gaps
The rcUSD+ portfolio invests in money market funds and structured notes to generate returns for holders. The protocol maintains institutional oversight while providing transparency for on-chain assets.
Key technical and operational details were not disclosed in launch materials. R25’s official documentation at docs.r25.xyz and main site at r25.xyz were inaccessible at publication time. The contract address for rcUSD+ on Polygon was not disclosed, which prevents independent on-chain verification of token supply and transactions.
Multiple verification points remained unavailable at launch. No security audit reports were accessible, and the specific yield calculation methodology was not disclosed. Team member information and regulatory approval specifics were also absent from launch materials.

Yield-bearing stablecoins could help address the gap between crypto assets generating yields (8-11%) and traditional finance (55-65%), according to RedStone analysts. Billions in stablecoins already circulate on Polygon, which powers retail payments and DeFi liquidity.
Comparable yield-bearing RWA protocols include Ondo Finance’s USDY token backed by US Treasuries, Centrifuge’s private credit RWAs, and Maple’s on-chain credit for institutions.
