TRON DAO Reserve Receives 700M USDC to Defend USDT Peg

• During Monday’s turmoil, the USDD stablecoin dropped slightly to $0.977 per unit.
• Tron DAO Reserve had to deploy money to protect the $1 parity.

In light of Terra UST’s demise and the present state of the crypto market, many have turned their attention to USDT, a Tron-based algorithmic stablecoin. USDT value plummeted on June 13, and the inventor, Justin Sun, indicated that traders were shorting the digital currency. When asked whether he thought the shorts could endure 24 hours, Sun said that the Tron DAO Reserve would use $2 billion to “fight them.” During Monday’s crypto market turmoil, the USDD stablecoin dropped slightly to $0.977 per unit.

USDD Collateralization Rate is Nearly 300%

Tron DAO Reserve had to deploy money to protect the $1 parity on one of the worst Mondays in the world of crypto assets when USDD plummeted to $0.97 per unit. “For the market extreme condition, [Tron DAO Reserve] has received 700 million USDC to defend [the] USDD peg. Now USDD collateralization rate is nearly 300%”. According to a tweet from the group, the collateralization rate for the USDD has almost tripled.

When the price of UST fell to $0.97 the day before it was de-pegged by an enormous amount, many investors were unconcerned about it. After that, the Tron DAO Reserve launched a series of purchases designed to protect the peg from destabilization. After purchasing the 700 million USDC, the group acquired another 100 million USDC and another 100 million USDC. It’s now at $2.5 billion in USDC supply on the Tron network, the Tron DAO Reserve said after adding 650 million USDC to the reserve.
