#What is JupUSD and How Does it Operate?
JupUSD is a newly launched stablecoin by Jupiter, a decentralized exchange aggregator on the Solana blockchain. This stablecoin aims to enhance liquidity by serving as universal collateral across the Jupiter ecosystem, designed specifically to be pegged to the US dollar.
#How is JupUSD Backed and Secured?
The JupUSD stablecoin is backed by a diverse reserve: 90% is backed by USDtb, a stablecoin collateralized by BlackRock’s BUIDL fund, while the remaining 10% consists of a USDC liquidity buffer. This structure not only helps maintain stability, but also allows for flexibility as the reserves can be gradually shifted to include USDe. The infrastructure supporting JupUSD comes from Ethena Labs, ensuring robust, institutional-grade security through custody solutions provided by Porto and Anchorage Digital.
