USDD Algorithmic Stablecoin Falls To $0.96
Tron founder Justin Sun’s algorithmic stablecoin continues to depeg, with a fall to $0.96 on December 12. USDD stablecoin is falling against the US dollar in December and suddenly fell to $0.9673 today.
Over $4 million USDD liquidity was removed from Curve Finance a few hours ago, which counts over 12.83% of the total pool share. USDD/3CRV liquidity pool of Tron’s USDD on Curve has been severely tilted, with USDD accounting for 86.1%.
