Disinflation: Resetting Pace for Long-Term Stability
The disinflation update approved through UIP-11 is now being put into effect.
It slows issuance, simplifies system mechanics, and strengthens the foundation the protocol will build on moving forward.
Over the past year, USUAL expanded quickly. Demand grew, product direction became clearer, and fundamentals improved. But emissions were rising faster than usage, and incentives built for bootstrapping created persistent sell pressure.
Disinflation corrects that.
It shifts the protocol from high-velocity expansion to a more durable, sustainable structure.
The adjustment includes:
Daily emissions reduced by over 50%Roughly 90% of farming-driven sell pressure removedUSL converted into a zero-coupon modelA fixed, finite supply of 3B USUALCleaner USD0++ behaviour for predictable integrationsA trade-off from short-term activity toward long-term system health
These changes address a central community question around why strong fundamentals were not reflected structurally.
Disinflation provides the answer by tightening issuance, removing extraction loops, and allowing fundamentals to speak again.
This update also sets the conditions required for the protocol’s next phase, where token design supports the product rather than defines it.
USUAL now moves into a more deliberate, stable operating mode.
Disinflation is the first step.
