📌 Why We Built EGT
📌 Why We Built EGT
🌍 The Centralized Stablecoin Problem
Today’s stablecoin infrastructure suffers from a paradox:
Value is generated by users and builders,
But value is captured by centralized entities.
Top stablecoins like USDT and USDC:
Do not offer profit-sharing,
Do not allow governance participation,
And rely entirely on opaque, off-chain institutions.
Even gold-backed tokens like PAXG or XAUt:
Lack DeFi composability,
Operate as custodial wrappers,
And return nothing to the users who provide value.
💡 Our Vision: Protocols Owned by Participants
We believe that the future of stablecoins must be:
Transparent: backed by real reserves, auditable on-chain
Governable: shaped by its stakeholders, not corporations
Shareable: value created should be shared fairly
That’s why we created EGT — not just as a governance token, but as a new model of tokenized equity for on-chain institutions.
🔁 A Dual-Token Architecture
To make this vision possible, we designed a dual-layer system:
EURG
Stablecoin
1:1 backed by gold & silver
EGT
Governance & Revenue
Platform equity & incentives
EURG ensures stability, trust, and value preservation. EGT captures growth, distributes earnings, and decentralizes control.
Together, they form the monetary and political foundation of the EURG ecosystem.
