Stablecoins have grown exponentially in popularity over the last years. And for a good reason. Merchants and companies often benefit from a stablecoin alternative to avoid experiencing significant price movements when sending/receiving money. BUSD offers a stable dollar-backed option to an otherwise volatile market.
“We hope to unlock more financial services for the greater blockchain ecosystem through the issuance of BUSD, including more use cases and utility through the power of stable digital assets,” said CZ.
BUSD offers a medium of exchange, store of value and method of payment across the global crypto ecosystem.
