Rich Teo, Paxos Co-Founder and CEO Asia, commented, “NYDFS’s approval of BUSD is a vital step towards long term stability in global crypto markets. We are proud that our stablecoin as a service offering enables trusted companies like Binance to introduce products customized for their users.

Stable Universal Partners With Paxos And Huobi To Launch New Stablecoin: HUSD

Stable Universal Limited, a U.S.-based crypto startup venture, today announced it will launch a new U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin, HUSD Token. To ensure full backing of every HUSD Token and regulatory oversight, the dollars backing HUSD Token will be held in reserve by Paxos Trust Company, a fiduciary and qualified custodian regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS).

HUSD Token will first be listed by Huobi Global, the world’s leading digital asset trading platform. In the coming days, Huobi will transition from its current HUSD system (a solution that allows multiple stablecoin denominations to trade as one) to the new HUSD Token issued by Stable Universal. HUSD Token, designed as an ERC-20 token, will also be available to be listed on other exchanges, wallets and cryptocurrency platforms.

Frank Zhang, CEO of Stable Universal, said, “In today’s cryptocurrency markets, traders always need access to a safe, trustworthy stablecoin that is fully redeemable and limits risk exposure. HUSD Token is reliable and designed to be efficient and simple – we believe it’s the best fiat on-ramp and will be a game-changer in the space. We’re excited that Huobi will list HUSD Token, allowing us to build liquidity quickly with their massive customer base. Combined with the sterling reputation of Paxos, we are offering a product with the highest level of oversight and protection.”

SIBEX partners with Paxos to trade physical gold on a blockchain

SIBEX is partnering with Paxos to facilitate peer to peer Over The Counter (OTC) trading. SIBEX is the developer of a peer to peer protocol which creates new arbitrage opportunities for institutional traders while eliminating the issues that exist with current OTC markets. Paxos is a regulated financial institution that digitizes and mobilizes assets; it offers PAX Gold (PAXG), a regulated digital asset backed by physical gold.

This partnership will allow SIBEX to distribute PAX Gold. This is an asset-backed digital token, with each token representing one troy ounce of London Good Delivery gold stored in a London vault.

Because SIBEX believes gold is a difficult asset to invest in (and hold), it proposes to make it easy for investors – by offering PAX Gold. With PAX Gold, investors (or speculators) can hedge against the volatility of other digital assets, via a regulated investment tool with exposure to gold assets.

CONCLUSION

Paxos is a New York-regulated financial institution on a mission to create a global, frictionless economy. By building infrastructure to enable the movement between physical and digital assets, Paxos is creating a future where all assets—from money to commodities to securities—are digitized and can move instantaneously, 24/7.
