In light of the TerraUSD saga, a number of stablecoin issuers have moved to disclose the assets backing their coins. As of June 30, 2022, 96% of the assets backing the Binance USD were held in cash and cash equivalents, while 4% were invested in U.S. Treasury bills, Paxos revealed.

All of the company’s cash balances are held in U.S.-insured depository institutions, while the cash equivalents are held in “U.S. Treasury bills with maturities of 3 months or less, or overnight repurchase agreements, overcollateralized by U.S. Treasury instruments.”
