What TrueUSD is
TrueUSD (TUSD) is a stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar, with live on-chain attestations provided by an independent third-party accounting firm. It has been listed on more than 100 trading platforms, including Binance and Huobi, and operates across 12 public chains, among them Ethereum, TRON, Avalanche, BSC, Fantom, and Polygon. In October 2022, the Commonwealth of Dominica granted TUSD statutory status as authorized digital currency and medium of exchange.
The mechanism rests on continuous, real-time attestation rather than periodic audit: an accounting firm verifies that the USD reserve backing circulating TUSD matches supply at a 100% collateral rate, with results published via tusd.io. TrueUSD also integrates Chainlink Proof of Reserve, which ties new minting to on-chain verification of reserves, a step beyond attestation alone. Together these are meant to let anyone check the backing ratio at any time rather than relying on a point-in-time report.
What this amounts to, and what it does not: TUSD is a fiat-backed stablecoin, not a yield-bearing or governance asset — it carries no stated mechanism for accruing interest or voting rights. Attestation is not the same as a full audit; the source describes real-time attestations by an accounting firm, not audited financial statements, and the reserve's composition and custodian are not detailed here. Dominica's recognition of TUSD as a medium of exchange is a single jurisdiction's statutory designation, not evidence of broader legal tender status or regulatory approval elsewhere. It has been tracked on-chain since March 2018 and is deployed on Avalanche, BSC, Ethereum, and TRON. CoinGecko groups it among fiat-backed and USD stablecoins and notes it as part of an Andreessen Horowitz portfolio listing — a classification of association, not a claim about current backing or management.
What TrueUSD can do
TUSD is pegged to the US dollar. Its site says independent firms attest to its reserves every day and that the reports are published there. It holds for as long as those reserves do.

TUSD is redeemed for dollars through an account in the TrueUSD app, in amounts of at least $1,000 and after its banking partners' identity checks. A wire usually follows within a business day. Everyone else sells it on an exchange.

Where TUSD lives
On Ethereum, Base and BNB Chain, GoPlus's analysis of each contract is read weekly: whether it has a function to block addresses or pause transfers, and whether an owner holds it. That is GoPlus's reading, not ours. Where a token exists on several chains, one copy's settings say nothing about the original coin.
Always verify a contract address against the project's own site before sending anything. Addresses are shown as published by CoinGecko, not as an endorsement — and identical-looking tokens on other chains are the most common way people lose money here.
