Freewallet is listing new stablecoins in a time of need

Today Freewallet is listing a group of new stablecoins, joining them with USDT and DAI on Multiwallet. The list of added stablecoins includes True USD (TUSD), DigixDAO (DGD), Paxos (PAX), STASIS EURS (EURS) and USD Coin (USDC). This move comes during a time in which increasing volatility in the cryptomarket has many turning to risk-minimal investment options.

One of the core features of Freewallet as a custodial wallet service is fee-free instant transactions within the Freewallet ecosystem. In light of the recent additions, this means that any of Freewallet’s 25 dedicated cryptocurrencies can be exchanged now with the added stablecoins.

Stablecoins like TUSD, DGD, and others from the list belong to a category of cryptocurrency that is intrinsically linked to a form of traditional financial value. While these coins can be traded on the cryptomarket and offer the same advantages as many other cryptocurrencies, they are each anchored by static material backing. The anchors ensure that stablecoins are relatively resistant to cryptomarket fluctuation.

The backing of the coin depends on the individual currency. Freewallet now offers its users stablecoins with a variety of backing, including crypto-collateralized (DAI), fiat-collateralized (USDC, USDT, TUSD, PAX, and EURS), and metal-collateralized (DGD) options.

As none of these backing factors are connected with the current state of the cryptomarket, these coins have been relatively unaffected by the cryptohysteria of the last weeks, with some of them even seeing a rapid expansion of their market capitalization.
