USDC moves value.
Payments stay in a stable asset, where they belong.
GARD evaluates the transaction.
Policy and risk evaluation happens before execution.
$GARD coordinates access.
Intended to coordinate access and economic participation around the protocol.
Why a token?
Payments in USDC. Participation in $GARD.
GARD does not require transactions themselves to be denominated in $GARD. USDC remains the appropriate asset for payments: it is stable and familiar to the people and applications moving money.
$GARD is intended to have separate utility. It is planned to coordinate access to the protocol, reduce fees for committed users, and align the operators who help evaluate transactions.
