**Summary** :

> Launch a Curve L2 in order to Mint crvUSD rather than Ethereum.  
> Frax has already launched an app chain Fraxtal, using fraxtal ETH as gas frxETH  
> Ideally Curve Chain should use crvUSD as gas token (such as xDAI for Gnosis)  
> **Abstract** :

> Actually crvUSD is only minted on ETH mainet, which could be expensive for users.  
> Retails are using Llama lend only on Arbitrum.  
> Ethereum main net is quite expensive and Curve could miss some opportunity of yield.

**Motivation** :

> -1 more fees for Curve Governance (Sequencer fees) + possible staked ETH yield if ETH gas or more utility to crvUSD  
> 2 less fees paid by users on ETH mainet  
> 3 possible launch of ETH LSD from Curve on this chain crvETH  
> 4connections with other L2 if using a native connected chain

**Specification** :

> Use Arbitrum, Optimism or Polygon zkEVM stack (OP and Polygon could have a native bridge to all similar L2 stacks)  
> Use an advanced bridge in order to move from Curvechain to other L2 (e.g. CCIP Chainlink, Layer Zero, Cosmos IBC)  
> (zk EVM seems using IBC tech from Cosmos SDK)

**For** :

> More fees, business expansion, sovereign dapp

**Against** :

> Curve is only a smartcontract level but not infrastructure  
> **Poll** :  
> Post a link to your proposal if it’s already been created

Basically, I don’t know what Curve team has negociated with DeFi

[https://app.defi.money/markets/](https://app.defi.money/markets/)

But they are minting $MONEY on L2 Arbitrum and Optimisn  
Then they bridge $MONEY form ARB to OP and reverse…

Curve could do the same on his own L2 then bridge everywhere…

great  
1:crvchain no gas fee(by lock crv)  
2:If a hacker steals money, the transfer of the chain can be shut down immediately
