What is TrueUSD (TUSD)?

TrueUSD (TUSD) is an ERC20 stablecoin minted on the TrustToken Platform.Its price is pegged to the equivalent amount of a U.S. dollar. According to their team, TUSD is able to match its price to the U.S. dollar by holding escrowed funds backing the US dollar with partner banks and fiduciaries. A publicly audited smart contract will allow users to receive TUSD by sending the U.S. dollar to a third-party escrow account after finalizing a KYC/AML check.

You can also buy TUSD in the supported cryptocurrency exchanges listed below. Since TUSD will always equate with the amount of a U.S. dollar, users redeeming TUSD tokens with equivalent U.S. dollars will need to have their TUSD token burned after the redemption. To ensure a secure attestation for the collateralized U.S. dollar, regular, independent, third-party audits will be held by partners such as Cohen & Co.
