# First Digital USD (FDUSD)

**Peg:** US Dollar

**Backing:** Real-World Asset Backed

**Governance:** Centralized (CeFi)

**Status:** active

## Overview

FDUSD is a BVI-issued dollar stablecoin backed by {{term:treasury}}T-bills{{/term}} and bank deposits with IAPA {{term:attestation}}attestations{{/term}} — clean reserves, but the same custodian lineage as troubled TUSD. First Digital USD rose to prominence as Binance's preferred stablecoin after BUSD's regulatory demise, and its reserves are genuinely clean: 74% T-bills, 18% cash, and the rest in bank deposits and overnight repos — all very-low risk, attested by IAPA International and Prism. The connection to First Digital Trust — the same {{term:custody}}custodian{{/term}} whose opaque fund investments make TUSD's reserves a red flag — is the uncomfortable shared lineage, though FDUSD's own reserve composition is transparent and conventional. Deployed across six chains including Sui, TON, and Solana alongside the expected EVM networks, the distribution follows Binance's ecosystem preferences more than organic DeFi demand. FDUSD's fate remains a single-dependency story: Binance's endorsement made it, and Binance's pivot to another preferred stablecoin could unmake it just as quickly.
