The EUTC Plan: A Hybrid and Sustainable Repeg Strategy for USTC on Terra Classic
Introduction
Since the depeg of USTC in May 2022, the Terra Classic community has been actively searching for a viable, long-term solution to restore trust in its ecosystem.
Theย EUTC (Euro Terra Classic Unit) Planย proposes a hybrid and innovative strategy to restore USTCโs peg by introducing a new collateral-backed stablecoin, governed onchain and supported by dynamic liquidity management.
The Goal of the Plan
The EUTC Plan aims to:
-
- Launch aย collateral-backed stablecoin (EUTC)ย to act as aย reference asset for USTC repeg;
-
- Create and fundย a single strategic liquidity pool (EUTC <> LUNC)ย on Terra Classic-compatible DEXs;
-
- Leverageย transparent, onchain mechanisms, governed by the community;
-
- Ensure aย progressive, controlled, and sustainable repegย process.
Structure of the Plan
1. EUTC: A Fully Collateralized Stablecoin
-
- EUTC is backed by anย onchain collateral poolย composed of Terra Classic-native assets (LUNC, USTC, etc.);
-
- It follows aย 150% overcollateralization ratio, enforced by a smart contract or L1 module;
-
- Each EUTC isย fully supported by real, verifiable collateral, limiting emission risks.
2. A Single Core Liquidity Pool: EUTC <> LUNC
-
- 100% of the EUTC supplyย will be injected into the EUTC <> LUNC pool;
-
- Theย initial ratioย (e.g., 1 EUTC = 10,000 LUNC) will be set based on market conditions at launch;
-
- Liquidity management will beย manual at launch, then transition to automated control via theย Market Moduleย once active (with oracle-based safeguards).
3. Funding the Pool Through the Burn Tax
The plan includes aย reallocation of a portion of the onchain burn tax:
-
- Current tax distribution: โฆย 10% to the Community Pool โฆ 10% to the Oracle Pool โฆ Theย remaining 80% will be split: 30% to liquidity pools, 70% to burn;
-
- Aย testing phase with a reduced burn tax (0.1%)ย will be introduced to analyze impact on volume, burn rate, and pool funding;
-
- The goal is to reachย $1,000,000 in liquidityย in the EUTC <> LUNC pool within a few months, depending on onchain activity.
4. Collateral Pool Module & EUTC Minting
Aย dedicated L1 moduleย will manage minting and collateralization:
-
- Automatically checks collateral ratios before minting EUTC;
-
- Enforces strict overcollateralization (150%) and prevents over-minting;
-
- Surplus returns from overcollateralization can be redirected to community funds;
-
- Designed to supportย multiple independent collateral poolsย over time (e.g., EUTC, KRTC), each with distinct rules.
5. Transition to Tobin Tax and Oracle-Based Automation
Once the Market Module is enabled:
-
- Theย Burn Tax will be replaced by the Tobin Taxย (set aroundย 0.35%ย on average);
-
- New fee distribution: โฆ 10% to the Community Pool โฆ 60% to the Oracle Pool โฆ 20% to the Liquidity Pool โฆ 10% to the Collateral Pool;
-
- The system will becomeย fully automated, guided by onchain data and real-time oracles;
-
- All changes and evolutions remainย community-governed.
Why This Plan Stands Out
-
- โ ย No reliance on external stablecoins like USDC or volatile assets like BTCย (avoiding unnecessary risk);
-
- โ ย Onchain transparency and community controlย at every level;
-
- โ ย Intelligent liquidity and ratio management, evolving with the network;
-
- โ ย Aligned with the Terra Classic vision: community-first, secure, and sustainable.
Next Steps
-
- Release of the full functional whitepaperย to the community;
-
- Community governance voteย to approve the plan and the collateral module;
-
- Initial minting and launchย of theย EUTC <> LUNC pool;
-
- Activation of the Market Moduleย and transition to the Tobin Tax.
Conclusion
The EUTC Plan offers a clear, realistic, and forward-looking roadmap for restoring USTCโs peg.
By introducing a collateral-backed stablecoin and building strong liquidity infrastructure around it, the Terra Classic community can move toward aย sustainable, decentralized, and autonomous stablecoin system.
This is not just a return to the past โ itโs a bold step forward into a new phase of the Terra Classic ecosystem.
