“Please note that USDⓈ is not a new stablebcoin; This is the symbol that Binance will use for the steakblock market , ”the company adds.
The USDⓈ market has already appeared on Binance, however, at the time of publication, only couples with USDT are represented on it. To search for pairs with other stablecoins, users still need to contact the market for the corresponding cryptocurrency (BNB / BTC / ETH).
In addition to USDT, the exchange supports the following stablecoins: USD Coin (USDC), Paxos Standard (PAX) and True USD (TUSD). CEO Binance Changpeng Zhao said in the past that he was not going to give up working with USDT, despite the controversial reputation of its issuer, Tether.
