What CRVUSD actually is on-chain

crvUSD is an ERC-20 deployed on Ethereum, at contract address 0xf939e0a03fb07f59a73314e73794be0e57ac1b4e. That address, not the ticker CRVUSD, is what uniquely identifies this asset: anyone can deploy a second token calling itself CRVUSD, but the contract is unforgeable. Verify it against etherscan.io before sending funds or approving a spend.

Because it lives on Ethereum, CRVUSD is held in any EVM-compatible wallet, transfers are paid for in ETH rather than in CRVUSD itself, and secondary liquidity sits in Uniswap-style AMM pools. Two consequences follow for anyone setting alerts: you need ETH in the same wallet to move the token at all, and a quoted price taken from a pool is a pool price — it includes slippage that an order-book quote would not.

For CRVUSD the project publishes a whitepaper, a public source repository and an active account as @curvefinance. Both a written specification and readable code exist, which is a materially higher bar than most assets in this size range clear. None of it is a quality judgement about the asset; it is simply what can be independently checked before the chart is worth looking at.

Where CRVUSD sits in the market

#167 places crvUSD in the upper mid-cap band. Liquidity is already fragmented at this depth: a large share of real CRVUSD volume can sit on two or three venues, so a quote on a secondary exchange may lag the primary market by seconds and by more than a basis point. Position size matters more than entry timing here.

CryptoPingAi is currently streaming 1 live CRVUSD order book (Gate.io). That is thinner coverage than a #167 ranking would normally imply — a move on one of these books is close to the whole market for CRVUSD, with no deep second venue to arbitrage it back. None of the books we see for CRVUSD are regulated US or Korean venues, so this is an offshore-quoted asset — availability, and the price itself, depend on which jurisdiction you trade from.

CRVUSD against its all-time high

CRVUSD is 12.2% below the $1.11 record set on 2024-06-13. That is a shallow drawdown: the high itself is the nearest meaningful reference overhead, and the supply that changed hands near it is small enough that a retest is a mechanical question of flow rather than a structural one. Reclaiming the high needs only 1.14x from here. That high was set roughly 2 years ago, recently enough that it still anchors how most current holders frame the asset.

CRVUSD across its historical range

The recorded range is comparatively narrow: 1.17x between $0.9490 and $1.11. Either the price history is short, or the asset is designed not to move.

CRVUSD is within 2.7% of its all-time low of $0.9490, printed on 2023-08-08. This is the part of a chart with no history: there is no prior trading below this level, so there is no support to reference, no volume shelf and no cost-basis cluster to lean on. The low is old enough to have held as a floor across several market regimes — a materially different setup from one printed recently.

CRVUSD supply structure

There is no fixed maximum supply for CRVUSD. Total supply stands at 256.0 million CRVUSD and essentially all of it — 100.0% — is circulating. With no locked treasury to unlock, dilution comes from protocol issuance over time rather than from a cliff on a vesting calendar, which tends to produce slow supply drift instead of discrete unlock shocks. A supply in the hundreds of millions keeps the unit price in a range where round-number levels are genuinely traded, which makes price-threshold alerts more reliable than they are on high-supply tokens.

What kind of asset CRVUSD is

crvUSD is pegged to the US dollar, so the only price question that matters is whether the peg holds; trend and momentum readings on a dollar peg describe noise, not direction. Our dataset does not record which backing model this token uses, which is itself worth resolving before holding it: reserve-backed, collateral-backed and algorithmic pegs fail in very different ways and on very different timescales. Its size is mid-range for the category — large enough to be quoted continuously, small enough that a single large redemption is visible in the price.

CoinGecko files CRVUSD under 10 categories, including Stablecoins, Decentralized Finance (DeFi), USD Stablecoin, BNB Chain Ecosystem, Polygon Ecosystem. CoinGecko also records deployments on BNB Chain (2,027 tracked tokens), Polygon (531 tracked tokens), Arbitrum (391 tracked tokens), so on-chain liquidity is split across several networks and the cheapest venue depends on which deployment you are trading.
