Company Description
nUSD is a stablecoin that is pegged to the UD Dollar. It was created by Havven, a decentralized payment network. nUSD has a dual token mechanism that provides stability. In order to generate nUSD, users must acquire Havven Coin (HAV) and lock it in a smart contract. 80% of their HAV holdings remain in collateral, and 20% of its value is generated in the form of newly minted nUSD. This collateral staking mechanism includes an incentive mechanism that rewards users with a portion of the transaction fees that are collected when nUSD transactions occur on the network. nUSD is currently an Ethereum-based token, but will soon be transferred to EOS. | Tether (USDT) is the largest stablecoin cryptocurrency. It is pegged to the US Dollar. (1 USDT=$1 USD) Each Tether token that is issued is backed by $1 USD that is supposedly held in reserve. Tether has been the subject of some controversy because they have failed to allow a transparent audit of their currency reserves. | Dignity is a stablecoin pegged to gold, that was developed by the company Cryptobontix. Each DIG token is pegged to the worth of 0.02445 grams of gold, which was worth exactly $1.00 at the time of the Dignity whitepaper. |
