what's Global Dollar Network?
The Global Dollar Network is an open, collaborative ecosystem designed to accelerate the adoption of stablecoins in global finance. Launched in November 2024, it brings together leading enterprises from crypto and traditional finance, including Anchorage Digital, Bullish, Galaxy Digital, Kraken, Nuvei, Paxos, and Robinhood, to foster innovation in digital payments and settlements. At its core, the network promotes the use of regulated stablecoins for seamless, low-cost, 24/7 transactions across borders, addressing challenges like interoperability and compliance in the stablecoin space. The network's flagship asset is Global Dollar (USDG), a fully reserved, U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin issued by Paxos Digital Singapore under the supervision of the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and compliant with the EU's MiCA framework via Paxos Issuance Europe. USDG operates on multiple blockchains such as Ethereum and Solana, enabling efficient on-chain activities including DeFi lending, payments, and treasury management. The network's economic model shares reserve yields with partners to incentivize growth, positioning it as a trusted infrastructure for bridging traditional and decentralized finance.
