TRON's USDD Stablecoin Still Below $1 Despite $2B Cash Injection (Crypto Briefing)

TRON's USDD stablecoin is still trading under a dollar over 24 hours after the TRON DAO Reserve announced deploying $2 billion to defend its peg.

By deploying $2 billion, the TRON DAO Reserve likely plans to buy huge amounts of TRX in an attempt to create a “short squeeze,” forcing those short on TRX to buy back the underlying TRX tokens and ultimately giving arbitrageurs more runway to restore the USDD peg. Currently, the DAO holds $10.8 billion TRX, 14,040 BTC, 140,000,000 USDT, and 500,000,000 USDC in reserve, providing a collateralization ratio of around 248% for the 723,321,764 USDD in circulation. When the stablecoin trades under $1, arbitrageurs can burn it for $1 worth of TRON’s native cryptocurrency, TRX. Conversely, when USDD trades above $1, arbitrageurs can swap $1 worth of TRX for one USDD, minting more USDD in the process and increasing its supply. As arbitrageurs attempt to profit by swapping 1 USDD for $1 worth of TRX, it creates immense selling pressure on the TRX token. At the time, USDD had dipped slightly below a dollar, trading at around $0.98. More than 24 hours and $2 billion later, it has still not been able to regain its peg. The algorithmically-backed stablecoin lost its dollar peg Monday as the crypto total market cap plunged below $1 trillion for the first time since January 2021.

The dip to $0.97 follows Monday’s deviation from the parity and comes after the Tron DAO Reserve deployed large quantities of USDC to shore up the reserve’s defense. With USDD hitting a low of $0.974, a $100 investment would only equate to $97.40. On Tuesday, Tron’s founder Justin Sun tweeted about the USDD movement against tether ( USDT). On Tuesday, crypto prices have seen a slight improvement but USDD is still under the $1 parity. “Currently USDC supply on TRON has reached $2.5 billion.” The drop happened after the Tron DAO reserve decided to deploy millions of USDC to defend the token’s $1 parity.

However, Tron’s stablecoin USDD has once again dropped to $0.974 per unit, indicating a small amount of instability continues to plague the fiat-pegged token.

In response Tron’s CEO Justin Sun explained that the Tron DAO which manages USDD is “actively buying crypto… For Terra customers, much of Sun’s script may sound eerily familiar.
