True financial interoperability requires a price stable means of value exchange. CENTREu2019s technology for fiat-backed stablecoins brings stability to crypto. The initial implementation is USD//Coin (USDC), an ERC-20 token creating possibilities in payments, lending, investing, trading and trade finance u2014 and the ecosystem will grow as other fiat currency tokens are added.
As more goods and services are tokenized, smart contract platforms will become fundamental building blocks of value exchange. CENTREu2019s open-source and transparent stablecoin framework allows fiat to interact with smart contracts, giving developers a viable way to use real world currencies in blockchain applications.
CENTRE stablecoins are issued by regulated and licensed financial institutions that maintain full reserves of the equivalent fiat currency. Issuers are required to regularly report USD reserve holdings, and that information will be made available upon request.
