GUSD and the Global Trends of Compliance Stablecoins

The launch of GUSD comes at a critical moment as global stablecoin regulations accelerate.

United States: The "GENIUS Act" officially comes into effect, providing a legal framework for compliant stablecoins.

Hong Kong: The "Stablecoin Regulation" has been implemented, becoming the world's first region with a complete regulatory framework.

Japan and South Korea: Accelerating the pilot of yen and won stablecoins, focusing on cross-border payments and B2B settlements.

Unlike "gray liquidity tools" like USDT, compliant stablecoins are issued by regulated entities, possess clear asset reserves and legal responsibilities, and can be included in corporate financial statements and cross-border settlement scenarios, becoming the official interface between traditional finance and the encryption world.

GUSD, as Gate's compliance-oriented attempt, combines RWA yield-bearing assets with on-chain liquidity, not only satisfying the hedging and yield needs of encryption users but also having the potential to enter real-world application scenarios such as cross-border payments and corporate treasury management.

Platform strength: Gate has been operating steadily for 12 years, with an asset management scale exceeding 4 billion USD.
