What is USDK?

USDK is a stablecoin operating on the Ethereum platform, designed to maintain a 1:1 exchange rate with the US dollar. It is backed by a 100% reserve held in a special account by Prime Trust, a US-licensed trust company, ensuring transparency and security. Its primary purpose is to provide a stable and scalable cryptocurrency for decentralised finance (DeFi) applications and as a medium of exchange.

How does USDK work?

USDK functions as an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, inheriting Ethereum's consensus mechanism, which is transitioning from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS). It is backed by US dollar reserves managed by Prime Trust, which ensures compliance and transparency through monthly attestations. While no unique algorithms are mentioned, USDK leverages smart contracts for transactions and integrations within the Ethereum ecosystem.

USDK has several real-world applications, including:

  • Facilitating transactions and payments.
  • Staking and mitigating loss in DeFi protocols.
  • Serving as a medium of exchange in decentralised applications.
  • Providing a stable store of value in volatile crypto markets.
  • Enabling cross-border transactions and remittances.

It is used across industries such as DeFi, cryptocurrency trading, e-commerce, blockchain gaming, and cross-border finance.

What is the history of USDK?
