Reserve (RSV) is the stablecoin issued within the Reserve Protocol ecosystem, a decentralized platform for creating asset-backed currencies. The RSV token is one of the two tokens in the Reserve system, alongside the governance token RSR (Reserve Rights).[1] The project launched in 2019 on the Ethereum blockchain.[1]
Design and History
In August 2023, Reserve launched a new brand identity and website.[2] The rebrand introduced a new visual direction for the protocol, with the official blog post describing the design decisions behind the update.[3] The new brand was described by community members as “clean and minimal.”[2]
The RSV token logo is distributed through the Reserve Protocol’s official RToken registry on GitHub, which requires logos to be submitted as SVG files.[4] The token’s logo is also referenced in third-party token lists used by cryptocurrency wallets and exchanges.[5]
Meaning and Symbolism
The 2023 rebrand established “Reserve Blue” as the hallmark of the brand aesthetic, with the specific hex color #0151AF. The official blog describes this hue as “a balance between a deep oceanic navy that is vast and serious, and a saturated cobalt that is energetic and tech-forward.”[3]
The name “Reserve” itself reflects the project’s stated mission: the official website explains, “It’s called Reserve because we’re here to make a world reserve currency.”[6]
Typography and Design
Documentation for the Reserve Protocol’s RToken registry specifies that token logos must be submitted as SVG files with lowercase filenames, such as rsv.svg.[4] No specific typography details for the RSV mark have been officially documented in the available sources.
