Curve $60M Proposal Would Expand Business, Give Income to Users

The Curve Finance decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is voting on a proposal that could open up new income streams for the protocol and its ecosystem.

The proposal, introduced in August by founder Michael Egorov, would establish a $60 million credit line of crvUSD for Yield Basis. Voting began on Wednesday, with 97% of votes cast in support of the proposal at the time of writing.

Under the Yield Basis, holders of CRV who stake their tokens would receive veCRV (vote-escrowed CRV) in return, essentially creating income for stakers. Yield Basis would return between 35% and 65% of its value to holders of veCRV, while an additional 25% would be reserved for the ecosystem.

Egorov said the credit line would be enough to create pools for three assets: WBTC (WBTC), cbBTC (cbBTC) and tBTC (tBTC).

“In order to get more incentives for Curve ecosystem as well as to pay a fee for having Curve technology (cryptopools) powering its core, Yield Basis makes an allocation equal to 25% of YB which Yield Basis liquidity providers are getting to Curve,” Egorov wrote in the proposal.

The Yield Basis is said to tackle the problem of impermanent loss by borrowing and making a supply sink at the same time. “Therefore, TVL and debt in Yield Basis can scale up to any size without affecting crvUSD peg negatively,” Egorov said.

Impermanent loss occurs when the value of digital assets deposited in a liquidity pool falls more than if the assets were held outside the liquidity pool. It can happen due to liquidity pool rebalancing and other factors.

Curve Finance is a player in decentralized finance and had a $2.4 billion total value locked (TVL) as of Thursday, according to DefiLlama. However, that TVL has dropped considerably since January 2022, when it peaked at around $24.2 billion.

The protocol has struggled against attackers, suffering multiple domain name service (DNS) attacks and the appearance of a fake Curve Finance app.

DeFi rises in 2025

As a sector of crypto, decentralized finance has been rising in 2025 after a significant lull period between mid-2022 and most of 2023.

Across all protocols, TVL, a measure of DeFi health, had risen to $163.2 billion on Thursday, up from $115.8 billion on Jan. 1, 2025. That’s a rise of 40.9% in almost nine months.

Aave, a DeFi protocol with $42.5 billion in TVL, has been making moves in the space. In August, it went live in the Aptos ecosystem, a blockchain with few competitors to the DeFi giant. Aave is also working on a new version set to go live in the coming months.

Ethena has also experienced momentum, with its synthetic stablecoin receiving attention after the GENIUS Act was passed in the United States. It crossed $500 million in revenue in August 2025.

Crypto News of the Week (Oct 23–30, 2025)

🚀 Market Moves The crypto market showed renewed optimism this week as global risk appetite improved. Bitcoin climbed above 115 000 USD and Ethereum approached 4 200 USD after easing US-China trade tensions and growing expectations of another Federal Reserve rate cut. The total market capitalisation returned to around 4 trillion USD, with altcoins also moving higher. 🏛️ Regulatory and Political Developments In the United States, lawmakers introduced a new bill aiming to ban elected officials and their families from owning or trading cryptocurrencies, citing ethical and transparency concerns. In Europe, the EU approved its 19th package of sanctions against Russia, which for the first time directly targets Russian crypto-exchanges and payment service providers suspected of helping to bypass restrictions. Meanwhile, the White House announced plans to nominate crypto-friendly lawyer Mike Selig as the new chair of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. 🧠 Fun Crypto Fact Gold dropped by about 10% within just six days — one of the sharpest short-term moves in years. Historically, when gold corrects this fast, it tends to rebound by around 8% within two months. Analysts note that such turbulence in precious metals often shifts investor attention back toward bitcoin as an alternative store of value. ✅ Takeaway for NordFX clients The market remains in a consolidation phase, with regulation and geopolitics now having stronger influence than pure price momentum. The latest US-China trade thaw and expectations of easier monetary policy could provide short-term support, but political decisions are likely to remain the key driver. Stay tuned — next week will bring new data on ETF flows, US inflation, and further regulatory developments that could set the tone for November. 📊 Crypto News of the Week (Oct 23–30, 2025) 📉 was originally published in Coinmonks on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story
