TrueUSD is now trading on Bittrex

Starting today, traders can easily and quickly trade into a stablecoin that is 100% legally backed by US Dollars. TrueUSD offers token-holders full USD collateral, regular attestations (starting with this one), and legal protections to redeem TrueUSD for USD. This allows individuals and institutions to trade cryptocurrencies while mitigating the extreme price volatility of the market.

A big thanks to the Bittrex team for their enthusiasm and efforts to launch this new market.

What is TUSD?

TrueUSD is a price-stable cryptocurrency backed by US Dollars. Each 1 TUSD is redeemable for $1.00 USD.

If you hold TrueUSD tokens, pass a KYC/AML check, and comply with our terms of use, you have a legally enforceable right to redeem those tokens for the money in the TrueUSD escrow accounts. Anyone with a Bittrex account can trade TrueUSD.

TrueUSD is made possible by tokenizing US Dollars through TrustToken’s legal and technical platform. TrustToken is a platform to tokenize real-world currencies (such as USD and Yen) and assets (such as real estate, art, and IP).

Why TrueUSD launched on Bittrex first

• Bittrex has solid KYC / compliance practices.
• We appreciate and share Bittrex’s commitment to work in compliance with US financial law and be leaders in the evolving landscape of cryptocurrency regulation. We believe that proactively following regulatory guidelines is the best long-term strategy for token issuers and exchanges.
• Bittrex is frequently used by institutional traders. 
• TrueUSD alpha is designed to meet the needs of high-volume individuals and institutions. TrueUSD is held in a legal structure (escrow accounts) that is familiar to funds and institutional traders. This new trading pair adds to Bittrex’s strong appeal to institutional traders.
• Bittrex is the largest cryptocurrency exchange (by trading volume) in the United States.
