Tether Launches Mexican Peso Tokens on Ethereum, Tron, and Polygon

Stablecoin issuer Tether Operations Limited announced that the company has launched a new token pegged to the value of the Mexican peso. According to the team, the newly launched MXNT tokens will initially be hosted on Ethereum, Polygon, and Tron.

Stablecoin MXNT is pegged 1:1 to the Mexican peso

Stablecoin and blockchain firm Tether has revealed that it has launched a new fiat-backed token that will join the company’s pool of stablecoins. Tether launched MXNT, a stablecoin pegged to the value of the Mexican peso.

Tether’s other fiat token offerings include the popular USDT, which is pegged to the US dollar, and EURT, which is pegged to the value of the euro. The company also offers CNHT, a token pegged to the offshore Chinese yuan, and Tether gold XAUT, a token pegged to the value of an ounce of fine gold.

Tether USDT is the largest stablecoin in existence today as it currently has a market valuation of around $73.2 billion. The token’s market cap represents 5.77% of the $1.27 trillion crypto economy.

Of the $86.43 billion in digital currency trading volume on Thursday, the connection volume is around $45.42 billion, or 52.55% of today’s global trading volume. In terms of bitcoin (BTC) trading pairs, USDT is the top pair with bitcoin, capturing 55% of today’s BTC trading volumes. Tether says that the launch of MXNT will be a “testing ground for the integration of new users in the Latin American market.”

Paolo Ardoino, CTO of Tether, detailed during the announcement that the company has seen the popularity of digital currencies increase in Latin America. “We have seen an increase in the use of cryptocurrencies in Latin America in the last year, which has made it clear that we need to expand our offerings,” Ardoino said in a note sent to Bitcoin.com News.

Tron DAO Reserve buys $38 million of TRX to protect USDD stablecoin

On May 5, Tron’s USDD algorithmic stablecoin was launched, and so far, the fiat token has been listed on various decentralized finance (defi) protocols. Two days later, Tron DAO Reserve announced that it has purchased 504.6 million tron (TRX) to support the algorithmic stablecoin as the project aims to leverage a decentralized currency reserve similar to Earth’s UST reserves.

Tron DAO Reserve and Justin Sun reveal $38 million TRX purchase

Terra’s UST reserve system is becoming a popular scheme, and Tron’s USDD stablecoin project is following suit. Bitcoin.com News reported on the algorithmic stablecoin project Tron on April 21, and the fiat crypto asset has been officially launched since then. The project has several partners now and USDD is listed on Pancakeswap, Kyberswap, Sunswap, Sun.io, Curve Finance, Uniswap and Ellipsis.

According to tronscan.org, there is approximately $211,245,005.49 at the time of writing. Statistics show that as of Saturday, May 7, 2022, Uniswap version three (v3) is the most active exchange for buying and selling USDD. While the $211 million market cap is a small thing for Earth’s UST ($18.7 billion), it has only been around for two days. While terrausd (UST) recorded US$990.3 million in 24-hour transactions, USDD recorded US$2.31 million in the last day. The USDD market valuation is higher than Gemini’s (GUSD) market capitalization of $199.5 million.

On Saturday, Tron DAO and Tron founder Justin Sun announced that the team had purchased 504,600,250 TRX at an average price of 0.07727 per unit. The purchase will be used as a reserve asset to “safeguard the blockchain industry and cryptocurrency market,” reserve account Tron DAO said Saturday afternoon.

“[Tron DAO Reserve] has done its job,” tweeted Tron founder Justin Sun this weekend.

Decentralized, Algorithmic and Centralized: The Quest to Perfect Stablecoin Continues

While decentralized and algorithmic stablecoins sound good in theory, there are concerns and doubts about whether or not they can maintain a stable peg as long as they exist. Of course, some centralized stablecoin projects in the past have failed, and Makerdao’s decentralized stablecoin DAI was tested during the ‘Black Thursday’ event on March 12, 2020. Prior to the March 12 event, Bennett Tomlin’s blog post predicted the Ethereum (ETH) price stress that could affect the DAI USD parity.

In November 2020, the issuer of stablecoin OUSD, Origin Protocol, suffered an instant lending attack and the coin temporarily lost its peg. During the first week of April, the Waves-based neutrino stablecoin usd (USDN) temporarily dropped from the dollar. A year ago in April, the fiat value of the stablecoin fei usd (FEI) dropped below one dollar for a short period of time. So far, several of the projects mentioned above have recovered shortly after the parity loss, and stablecoin projects have maintained a stable parity ever since.

The Tron DAO Reserve purchase of 504,600,250 TRX was worth $38.99 million at the time of liquidation. The TRX purchase also follows the recent acquisition of $1.4 billion worth of bitcoin (BTC) by Luna Foundation Guard (LFG). The non-profit LFG now holds 80,394 BTC and $100 million worth of AVAX to protect UST. In addition, Tron DAO has partnered with three crypto institutions that are now whitelisted Tron DAO Reserve members. Tron DAO Reserve’s institutional partners include Poloniex, Alameda Research and Amber Group, while Tron DAO Reserve acts as the “initial custodian” of USDD.
