Anchorage Digital is proud to be an initial partner of the Global Dollar Network (GDN), an alliance of leaders in fintech and digital assets committed to accelerating the adoption of safe and trusted stablecoins. 

“Our role as an initial partner of the GDN is to ensure USDG meets the most important needs of institutions when it comes to stablecoins—seamless transactions, flexible trading, safe custody, and rewards. Anchorage Digital provides all of these in our support for USDG so institutions have a real and viable new option in USDG.”

—Nathan McCauley, Co-Founder and CEO of Anchorage Digital

Directed by a network advisory committee with partner representation, Global Dollar Network will reshape the stablecoin landscape, offering a solution that meets the stringent demands of global enterprises while promoting collaborative growth and innovation.

At the heart of GDN is USDG, a new US-dollar denominated stablecoin issued by Paxos Digital Singapore Pte. Ltd. (PDS), which is subject to prudential oversight by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). USDG powers seamless, low-cost, 24/7 global transfers.
