USDD (the world’s first 100% dollar-backed and interest-bearing stable coin), EURD (euro), JPYD (yen), GBPD (GBP) and other foreign exchange token (Forex Token) and other stock token like AAPLD (Apple), AMZNT (Amazon), GOOGT(Google), FBT (FaceBook), IBMT (IBM), BABAT (Alibaba).

All minting, redemptions, interest payments, compliance checks and other rules are built directly into the blockchain using smart contracts in these jurisdictions, ensuring fairness and transparency.
