What is RSR?

Reserve Rights (RSR) is a cryptocurrency built on Ethereum (ERC-20 token) that powers the Reserve Protocol — a platform for creating stable, asset-backed cryptocurrencies called R tokens.

RSR is like the guardian and decision-maker of this system.

What RSR Does

Keeps Stablecoins Safe (Overcollateralization) 🛡

People stake RSR to provide an extra layer of protection for RTokens.

If an asset backing an RToken fails, staked RSR is used to cover the loss.

Helps Make Decisions (Governance)

RSR holders can propose and vote on changes to an RToken’s settings — like which assets back it, how fees work, or risk controls.

Can Become More Valuable Over Time

Some protocol fees are used to buy back and burn RSR, reducing its supply.

Why People Watch RSR

Real Utility — Not just for trading, iit directly protects and governs stablecoins.

Dual-Token System — Separates stable value (RTokens) from governance/insurance (RSR).

Global Vision — Aims to offer stable money options worldwide, especially in inflation-hit economies.

Passive Rewards — Staking RSR can earn holders revenue from the RTokens they secure.

In Short

RSR is the safety net and voting power behind the Reserve Protocol. It protects stablecoins, gives holders a say in the system’s rules, and could benefit from long-term growth as Reserve expands globally.
