The U.S. dollar backed cryptocurrency is a digital asset that is fully supported by U.S. dollar reserves. One such example is USD Coin (USDC), where each token is pegged to the value of one U.S. dollar, providing stability and allowing it to be used as a hedge against volatility in other cryptocurrencies.
