# USDD

> Leading The Financial Future With Stability And Transparency

USDD helps crypto users transact with stable value by providing an over-collateralized stablecoin pegged to USD.

USDD is a decentralized stablecoin pegged to the US dollar and backed by over-collateralized crypto assets. Users can transact without price volatility, earn savings yield, and use it across DeFi protocols on multiple blockchains. Community governance, on-chain collateral, and a peg stability module for par swaps with other stablecoins support the peg.
