John Kiff on 22 Jul 21Paxos Trust lawyer and chief compliance officer Dan Burstein claims that Tether's USDT and Circle's USDC are unregulated "stablecoins" in name only. Paxo-issued Paxos Standard (PAX) and Binance Dollar (BUSD) are approved and regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS). That means each token is backed by reserves in the safest instruments, such as bank deposits insured by the US Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or short-term maturity US Treasuries. Gemini Dollars (GUSD) issued by Gemini Trust Company, are similarly NYDFS regulated.
