ICO News

Appearance of stablecoins TrueUSD (TUSD) on Binance didn’t result in skyrocketing prices of altcoin. Binance has launched TUSD 22 May that was highlighted by the official Twitter account of the altcoin. Some users believe that TUSD look suspicious and resemble Tether that has also a peg to US dollars. After launched TUSD has risen to $1,1 but by 23 May it suffered some loss and plummeted to $1,01.
