Price Stability & Crypto Privacy At Its Best With USDT & USDC Stablecoins
Bitcoin & all the other cryptocurrencies we currently offer as both a deposit method and a withdrawal option may promise you bullet-proof privacy & security with no tampering whatsoever, yet the thing that all of them cannot guarantee is price stability.
Since crypto is a fairly new market – less than ten years – compared to the traditional ones that have at least a century of history, there is still a price discovery stage that has to be undertaken. This stage naturally brings volatility and massive swings that may appear unnatural. However, every market has witnessed such volatility at its inception.
As a method to counter-act the ups and downs, the cryptocurrency market has come up with a neat ‘invention’ we now call stablecoins.
To help you fight the current market condition, AU Slots has recently implemented two of the most popular stablecoins into the deposit & withdrawal mix.
USDT Aka Tether Explained
The first stablecoin is by far the most popular among them all.
Why is that? USDT or Tether is the first stablecoin to be created long before the term was actually used among the crypto enthusiasts. In this sense, USDT may be the Bitcoin of stablecoins.
Tether emerged in 2015 when the market gave the first signs of recovery after the Mt Gox unfortunate experience. Its proposition was simple: every coin created via the OMNI chain – a blockchain that gave the possibility to easily & conveniently create tokens much like Ethereum – was backed by 1 USD in the bank account. Therefore, the price, no matter the ups and downs of Bitcoin & all the other altcoins, would be 1 USD per USDT.
Tether was pretty much under the radar for around two years until the 2017 hype when the demand skyrocketed. Tether started diversifying in 2018 expanding to other chains as well like Ethereum, Tron TRX, EOS, Liquid, or Algorand.
Today, USDT is in the top five, according to CoinMarketCap having close to $9 billion in assets and a daily volume that, more often than not, exceeds Bitcoin’s. Almost all cryptocurrency exchanges use USDT in pairs with all the major coins & anyone can hedge against periods of volatility with Tether to avoid major losses in the short run.
USDC Explained
Besides USDT, we also offer you the possibility to deposit & withdraw with the second most popular stablecoin that is USD Coin aka USDC.
USDC was created as a financial instrument in late 2018 by one of the most popular cryptocurrency exchanges on the web, Coinbase.
Like Tether, USDC started out small but in 2019 and 2020 the demand exploded increasing its market cap to over $700 million in just two years.
The proposition is the same: for every USDC created, Coinbase deposits 1 USD in its bank account, thus the value of 1 USDC cannot be greater or below 1 USD. Obviously, you will see minor fluctuations in terms of cents, yet that’s perfectly understandable given a free market and the demand-supply dynamics.
All USDCs are created on the Ethereum blockchain and have the same characteristics as any other ERC20-based token: they use the public-key cryptography & hash-based principles which make them safe to use & anonymous. A common transaction with USDC doesn’t reveal any sensitive information about the owner.
If we add the price stability, then we can clearly see why such financial instruments have become so popular in the last couple of years.
