An aside thought, with how much cash Ripple is throwing at this….There may be a strong opportunity for eUSD if Reserve explores a shared **RLUSD ↔ eUSD Curve pool**. **Why this matters:** - RLUSD already has a deep, heavily-incentivized Curve pool (~$60M+). - eUSD pools are still small, limiting routing and exit liquidity. - Combining **Reserve’s Curve/CVX power** + **Ripple’s Merkl incentives** could create a far more efficient liquidity plane than eUSD/USDC alone. **Key “if → then” questions:** - **If** Reserve can deploy meaningful Curve gauge weight, **then** how much TVL/APY lift could a shared pool achieve? - **If** Ripple continues RLUSD Merkl incentives, **then** does stacking them with Reserve’s votes create better emissions efficiency for both sides? - **If** a shared pool could realistically reach **$20–40M TVL** , **then** it is a meaningful liquidity upgrade for eUSD vs. the current. - **If** eUSD gains deeper routing and visibility next to RLUSD, **then** does this strengthen the eUSD opportunity & broader RToken ecosystem? **Potential upside (if numbers line up):** - 5–10× deeper liquidity for eUSD - Better emissions efficiency (your votes + their incentives) - A credible liquidity plane bridging decentralized and regulated USD assets --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.reserve.org/t/rfc-eusd-collateral-basket-change-proposal-5/1330)._
