USDM by Moneta
Cardano's Premiere Fiat-backed Stablecoin
Moneta is building the USDM fiat-backed stablecoin, an essential tool for Cardano. USDM serves as a base asset for decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols and enables instant on-chain payments. Our vision is to be a scalable catalyst for the growth and adoption of the entire Cardano ecosystem.
USDM is backed 1:1 by the USDM Reserve: USD bank deposits and US money market funds managed by Fidelity and Western Asset Management.
The USDM Reserve value is reported every day on the Cardano blockchain by the independent oracle, Charli3. USDM’s 1:1 backing is enforced through smart contracts that will not allow excess USDM to be issued.
We are dedicated to bringing strong, secure, and transparent stablecoin solutions to the Cardano blockchain. Together, we are helping Cardano leapfrog slower, more costly, more centralized Gen2 blockchains.
