The project unveiled a tokenized U.S. Treasuries and private credit-backed vault and saw immediate complaints from users regarding deposits of USDC to access rewards on the mainnet.<\/p>\n<p>A look at the project\u2019s X account <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/r2yield\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">@r2yield<\/a> shows it has been suspended.\u00a0X says it suspends accounts that violate its rules.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is R2 Protocol?<\/h2>\n<p>R2 offers R2USD, a stablecoin that allows holders to access off-chain yield sources across the decentralized finance market. Token holders also get exposure to staking derivatives and a reward system that means one\u2019s stablecoin holdings are not just an idle store of value but a yield-generating asset.<\/p>\n<p>As crypto.news highlighted earlier, the R2 team had seen the protocol\u2019s total value locked rise to a significant amount just after launch. The rewards offer for early users attracted more than 154,000 participants. Likely a mass reporting of the project\u2019s X account led to this suspension.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">X revealed a bribery network<\/h2>\n<p>R2 Protocol\u2019s mainnet launch and X account suspension comes just days after X, the social media platform owned by billionaire and Tesla chief Elon Musk, disclosed an investigation against a bribery network involving platforms perpetuating crypto scams.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, X said its employees have been approached by a network of individuals seeking to have suspended accounts reinstated.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cX has exposed and is taking strong action against a bribery network targeting our platform.
