🚀 What is RESOLV?
$RESOLV is the native governance and utility token of the Resolv protocol, a DeFi ecosystem that issues USR, a crypto-backed stablecoin pegged to the US dollar. It uses a delta‑neutral strategy—holding ETH/BTC and shorting their perpetual futures—to maintain USR’s peg, combined with an insurance pool called RLP to absorb market risks.

📈 Price & Future Outlook
Current price: $0.15–$0.17, market cap ~$27M–$167M, TVL around $383M .
Volatility: Dropped ~23% in a week, from $0.41 ATH on June 11, 2025.
Analyst outlook: One speculative model forecasts dramatic moves (e.g., $10+ by mid‑2025), but it's likely unrealistic—stemming from low‑liquidity volatility and echoing speculative assets like DOGE . Such forecasts should be taken with caution.
🧭 Future Prediction & Considerations
On‑chain fundamentals: High TVL, cross‑chain presence, strong hacking-insurance, and revenue from hedging favor positive mid‑term performance.
