Global Dollar (USDG) is a US dollar-pegged stablecoin designed to maintain a one-to-one value with the US dollar through full redeemability. It is issued by Paxos Digital Singapore (PDS), supervised as a Major Payments Institution by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and distributed in the European Union by Paxos Issuance Europe Oy, an Electronic Money Institution regulated by the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority. The token is structured to comply with the EU's Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation (MiCA). USDG operates across multiple blockchain ecosystems, including Ethereum, Solana, X Layer, and Ink, extending its reach to a wide range of decentralized finance applications and payment use cases. It combines fiat currency stability with blockchain-based transfer speed, availability around the clock, and programmability for smart contract integration. As a fiat-backed stablecoin, USDG is supported by reserve assets held in segregated accounts by PDS for the benefit of holders. The issuance framework includes capital reserve requirements, monthly independent attestations, annual audits, and regulatory examinations, emphasizing compliance, transparency, and structural protection within the Paxos ecosystem.
