The EUTC Plan: A Hybrid and Sustainable Repeg Strategy for USTC on Terra Classic

4 min read 615 words 243 views

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 USTCโ€™s 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: โ€ฆย 10% to the Community Pool โ€ฆ 10% to the Oracle Pool โ€ฆ 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: โ€ฆ 10% to the Community Pool โ€ฆ 60% to the Oracle Pool โ€ฆ 20% to the Liquidity Pool โ€ฆ 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

    • โœ…ย No reliance on external stablecoins like USDC or volatile assets like BTCย (avoiding unnecessary risk);
    • โœ…ย Onchain transparency and community controlย at every level;
    • โœ…ย Intelligent liquidity and ratio management, evolving with the network;
    • โœ…ย Aligned with the Terra Classic vision: community-first, secure, and sustainable.

Next Steps

    1. Release of the full functional whitepaperย to the community;
    1. Community governance voteย to approve the plan and the collateral module;
    1. Initial minting and launchย of theย EUTC <> LUNC pool;
    1. 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 USTCโ€™s 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€” itโ€™s a bold step forward into a new phase of the Terra Classic ecosystem.
