What is USD1?

USD1 is a fiat-backed stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar. It was launched in April 2025 and currently trades at approximately $1.0018.

The listing comes amid heightened attention to stablecoin regulation in the U.S, with the GENIUS Act, a bill designed to establish a regulatory framework for stablecoins being passed after a Senate vote on Monday. The act was previously blocked by a unified Democratic front.

USD1 now enters a competitive field dominated by Tether, which holds over 60% of the stablecoin market and is backed by Cantor Fitzgerald.

In its Terms and Conditions, Binance emphasized that standard trading fees will apply to USD1 trades and encouraged users to consult the exchange’s VIP tier structure for details.
