Curve Finance is a decentralized exchange and DAO-governed protocol focused on efficient trading and liquidity for stable assets. Protocol parameters and treasury are controlled by CRV-token governance rather than by a central operating company.
Curve issues crvUSD, an overcollateralized US-dollar stablecoin minted against DAO-approved crypto collateral. A yield-bearing wrapper, Savings crvUSD, lets holders earn from borrower interest.
As a decentralized, DAO-governed protocol, Curve does not operate as a licensed issuer; no issuer-level licenses or registrations were identified.
