The Global Dollar (USDG) stablecoin, launched by Singapore-based Paxos, has entered the market in alignment with upcoming stablecoin regulations from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). Backed by top crypto companies, USDG stands out by sharing revenue from its reserve assets with participants who adopt the network.
Next-Gen Stablecoin Model
Known as Global Dollar (USDG), this stablecoin was developed through collaboration with industry giants including Anchorage Digital, Bullish, Galaxy Digital, Kraken, Nuvei, Paxos, and Robinhood. Paxos CEO Charles Cascarilla describes USDG as a “community-driven token,” emphasizing, “Anyone can participate in the Global Dollar Network and earn rewards for activities on the network. We distribute a remarkable 97% of economic value, a highly innovative approach in the stablecoin sector.”
While USDT and USDC dominate the stablecoin market, USDG introduces a unique operational model. Unlike Tether and Circle, which retain all earnings from their reserves, USDG rewards participant companies for activities such as providing liquidity and network connectivity.
This model incentivizes different contributions that drive ecosystem growth. According to Cascarilla, it’s a significant step toward creating an evolving ecosystem.
Reward System for Participants
In the U.S., USDG will be accessible through distributors like Anchorage, which operates in all U.S. states, offering broad reach. Additionally, Paxos has partnered with DBS Bank, Southeast Asia’s largest bank, for cash management and reserve storage, reinforcing a secure infrastructure.
