Шаблон:Notability Шаблон:Infobox cryptocurrency First Digital USD or briefly FDUSD is a cryptocurrency stablecoin pegged to the United States Dollar, launched by Hong Kong based company First Digital Labs in 2023.[1]

History

First Digital USD made its debut on June 1, 2023, under the auspices of First Digital Labs, a financial firm headquartered in Hong Kong.Шаблон:Cn

The coin was initially deployed on the Ethereum and BNB Chain networks, adhering to the ERC20 and BEP20 standards, respectively. These decentralized blockchains leverage consensus mechanisms such as proof of stake (PoS) or proof of staked authority (PoSA), ensuring transaction confirmation, record immutability and transparency for market participants.[2]Шаблон:Primary source inline

The coin stability is supported by adequate[3] cash reserves and investments in US Treasuries.[4]

In an official statement released on September 1, 2023, Binance, a leading cryptocurrency exchange platform, announced the discontinuation of support for its native stablecoin, Binance USD (BUSD), urging users to transition to First Digital USD, with the culmination of this process slated for February 2024.[5]Шаблон:Primary source inline

Adoption

In February 2024, FDUSD experienced a 51% increase in trading volume, reaching $122 billion across centralized exchanges, thus surpassing Circle's USD Coin (USDC) to become the second most traded pair for Bitcoin.Шаблон:Cn This ascent is largely attributed to the zero-trading fee program implemented on Binance[6] and solidified First Digital USD's commanding position among stablecoins, trailing only behind Tether in popularity.[7]
