USAT is a new generation of stablecoin asset launched by Tether. It is a digital currency existing on the internet, not in bank vaults, and its sole design purpose is to maintain a value of $1. The token is pegged 1:1 to the US dollar and is 100% fully collateralized by short-term US Treasury bonds, further enhancing asset transparency and security. As stablecoins continue to play an increasingly important role as infrastructure in payments, transaction settlements, and on-chain finance, the launch of USAT is seen as a significant step for Tether in terms of compliance and asset structure. Huobi HTX's selection as the first exchange to issue USAT further demonstrates its forward-thinking approach in capturing high-quality assets and positioning itself in the stablecoin sector.
