Where U lives: supply by blockchain
U is spread across several networks. The largest, BSC, holds 70% of supply. Check that the token on your chain is the issuer's official contract, not a bridged copy.
How U is backed
U is minted against crypto collateral locked in smart contracts, usually worth more than the stablecoins issued, with liquidations or hedges protecting the peg.
Minting and redemption: An eligible business can exchange USD and $USDT/USDC/USD1 for $U and redeem $U for USD and $USDT/USDC/USD1 through an United Stables Account.
U risks
Collateral and liquidations
A sharp crash in the crypto collateral can outrun liquidations and leave the system under-backed.
Smart contracts and oracles
Bugs, governance attacks or bad price feeds can drain collateral or trigger wrongful liquidations.
Bridged versions
Copies of a stablecoin moved by third-party bridges depend on those bridges. Prefer the issuer's native contract on each chain.
Regulation
Rules such as the US GENIUS Act and the EU's MiCA can restrict which stablecoins exchanges list in a given country.
