Yes we are in talks with two larger exchanges but must want to see trading volume on DEX's first. The rest are all scams. Also After FTX, I'm really not keen on centralized exchanges.

Great questions.
Initially, we are only on ETH but we are working on a polygon staking option too. We are also partnering with a bunch of different yield farming dapps on Polygon so that will come.

Yeah reward will be in sEURO to start with but eventually, we will have other options. especially when we start rolling out other sFIAT's like sUSD, sINR, sAUD, sGBP and so on.

Regarding people dumping rewards, yeah that could happen but it would happen after the staking period ends and we will roll them out in staggered tranches of new staking pools. 
There are also soooo many use cases and yield farming ops coming for TST so the smart hodlers should understand that.

Stage one, get an instant 20% return by buying sEURO at a discount. Remember, the earlier you get in the more the discount. This helps the protocol collect deep liquidity to peg the currency and reward the user.




Stage two:

During the IBCO, third parties will unlikely give you 1 euro worth of assets for your sEURO because they can get it for a discount on the IBCO. So sEURO is not considered a stablecoin until the IBCO is over and the discount is 0.

But guess what, we consider it 1 euro already in stage two. We will buy the liquidity you place into UNISWAP V3 for the full euro price! On stage two just place your sEURO and your equivalent USDC in and choose a bonding period to get a fat yield. (




The yield% in this image are still tested net numbers The final numbers are here.



Now that you have a bunch of sweet sweet TST, stake them for a 20% API. first in best dressed!

Let us know if you guys have any questions

The rings where meant as proof of attendance rings but there will also be some nice functionality for them when the smart vaults are released after the IBCO

Thanks, yeah, we are looking forward to it too.

I had a great interview with SaSHA-256 @sashahodler on twitter.

We go deep into what CBDC's are and how they are set to absolutely control every part of your life. This is what drives me to create the ultimate decentralized stablecoin solution.

Laurin Bylica comments on the GBTC unlock

Laurin Bylica, Co-Founder of a decentralized crypto finance project The Standard, shared his opinion about the upcoming Grayscale Bitcoin Trust unlock.

In total, 40,000 ВТС will be unlocked. According to Laurin Bylica, even though the unlocking of shares should not move the spot price of bitcoin, “misleading and complex information lets investors worry and, therefore, can create short-term bearish anxiety.”

Meet the team: Laurin Bylica, Co-Founder

We continue introducing The Standard Protocol team and advisors! Today we would like you to meet Laurin Bylica, our Co-Founder.

Entrepreneur, fintech visionary, management consultant, and senior associate for a corporate VC & family office in Hong Kong. Laurin has an outstanding track record of driving tech projects from start to finish, including the world’s largest crypto sale which raised over $4.2 billion.

We infinitely value his experience and knowledge, and we believe that his vision will help us make The Standard Protocol truly popular!

If you have questions for Laurin, please feel free to ask, he will be more than happy to answer them for you!

What are Stablecoins?

We have mentioned the term “stablecoin” many times. What is it, anyway? How are stablecoins different from other cryptocurrencies, what are they good for and why have they become so popular? Let’s find out!

The first and most striking difference between stablecoins and regular tokens is that they keep all the advantages of cryptocurrencies (decentralization, transparency, anonymity) while being totally unaffected by volatility issues. As a rule, they are pegged to a fiat currency.

By the way, there are stablecoins that are pegged to other cryptocurrencies – a form of asset tokenization. For instance, to be able to use Bitcoin in DeFi projects on the Ethereum blockchain, wBTC – a tokenized Bitcoin, was created.

Some stablecoins are backed by real assets, while some maintain their peg through algorithms only.

In the field of DeFi that is becoming popular today, stablecoins are playing an integral part and are used as the foundation for a lot of protocols. With their help, investors and traders avoid unnecessary volatility.

Many modern companies are already beginning to accept this type of assets as payment, since it has become the safest way to implement new technologies while maintaining the traditional finance models. A good example is how Walmart is developing its own stablecoin.

This way stablecoins serve as a bridge between the world of traditional finance and that of cryptocurrencies. They are vitally important in increasing cryptocurrency technology adoption, making it more and more widespread each day.

What is DAO?

The Standard Protocol is DAO, but what is it?

DAO is a decentralized autonomous organization. The main idea is to enable the company to operate at full capacity without hierarchical governance. All the decisions about changes to the application or protocol are carried out upon reaching a consensus. Everyone who has a “share” in the DAO (usually these are holders of the project’s native token) can submit a proposition regarding its future — for the stakeholders to vote a proposition in or out. To pass a proposition, it must be supported by the majority of voters. The percentage that is considered the majority can be found in the founding code of the DAO.

This means that The Standard Protocol users will participate in the project’s development and get to make important decisions! In one of our upcoming posts, we will touch upon the question of what decentralization and DeFi mean for the world.

What makes our project’s tokens stand out?

Let’s talk about The Standard Protocol token! In this post we will touch upon two coins: Standard Euro (S-EURO) and The Standard Token (TST).

The protocol will start with the Standard Euro (S-EURO) – more currencies will be introduced later including the US Dollar, GB Pound and Indian Rupee. Standard Euro is an algorithmic stablecoin that is backed by physical and digital assets and is soft pegged to the Euro. It is generated by locking up tokenized hard and digital assets in a Smart Vault with a smart contract.

However, The Standard Protocol is a DeFi project where every participant has the right to steer the project’s development. This is done through The Standard Token (TST). It is a governance and utility token. TST is designed to keep the Protocol efficient, decentralized and transparent. The community of Standard Token holders who participate in the Protocol’s voting mechanism is named the Standard DAO.

Unlike the Standard Euro, the Standard Token’s value is not stable or pegged to the Euro.

Standard Tokens can be acquired during the token sale or on secondary exchanges.

The Standard Co-founder Speaks To Digitaljournal

The issue of security in cryptocurrencies is an issue that is relevant to absolutely everyone. It is believed that the cryptocurrency space is a hotbed for criminal groups since the transactions undertaken provide greater anonymity for both senders and recipients.

However, Joshua Scigala, co-founder of TheStandard.io begs to differ: “Right now, the vast majority of money laundering is done in fiat currency, because it’s anonymous”.

We are excited to share an article citing Joshua’s comments https://www.digitaljournal.com/tech-science/british-police-seize-bitcoins-used-for-money-laundering/article
