$FDUSD FDUSD (First Digital USD) is a stablecoin designed to maintain a 1:1 peg with the US dollar. Here are some key points about its safety:
- *Reserves*: FDUSD's reserves are backed by high-quality liquid assets, primarily short-term US Treasury Bills and cash, held in regulated financial institutions in Asia and Europe.
- *Audits*: Independent audit firms conduct monthly attestations to verify that FDUSD's reserves match its circulating supply.
- *Regulatory Compliance*: First Digital Trust, the issuer, is a Hong Kong-based trust company that complies with local regulations and maintains segregated accounts for FDUSD reserves.
- *Smart Contract Security*: FDUSD's ERC-20 and BEP-20 contracts have been audited by PeckShield, ensuring secure transfers and protection against unauthorized minting.
- *Risks*: FDUSD faces risks such as depegging, operational risks (e.g., fraud, cyber risks), regulatory risks, and counterparty risks.
Despite these measures, FDUSD has faced controversy, including allegations of unauthorized loans and embezzlement, which First Digital Trust denies .
