GYEN and ZUSD are 100% fiat-backed stablecoins developed and issued by GMO Trust. The mission is to bridge the gap between traditional finance and the digital asset world for the usage of stablecoins, crypto savings, lendings, open finance and DeFi. Every token has a one-to-one reserve balance and can always be redeemed with the underlying fiat currencies. All Japanese Yen and U.S. Dollar reserves that back GYEN and ZUSD in circulation are held securely in FDIC insured trustee bank accounts.
