This strategic move marks a pivotal development in the Ukrainian cryptocurrency sector, offering enhanced transactional possibilities for both individual users and commercial entities.
UAHg, a stablecoin anchored to the Ukrainian hryvnia (UAH) at a one-to-one ratio, is engineered to bolster Ukrainian crypto endeavors and to mirror the hryvnia's valuation in the global cryptocurrency market. Notably, UAHg is issued across several blockchain platforms, including Ethereum, Tron, and BNB Chain, underscoring its versatility and wide-ranging applicability.
The objective of the UAHg project is to facilitate an efficient and transparent mechanism for the transfer of virtual assets, thereby broadening their practical use. A key aim of this initiative is to mitigate the risks associated with the loss of value and liquidity that can occur in the cryptocurrency domain. Central to the UAHg's mission is the establishment of a robust hryvnia-based crypto infrastructure. This will enable transactions to be executed directly in Ukrainian hryvnia, effectively eliminating the need for double conversion and streamlining the process for users.
The Ukrainian stablecoin UAHg is set to make its debut on the WhiteBIT platform starting December 18, 2023. This development marks a significant step in cryptocurrency innovation, with UAHg offering a range of key features:
- Global Representation of the Hryvnia: UAHg is designed to represent the Ukrainian hryvnia in the international cryptocurrency market, thereby extending the reach of Ukraine's national currency in the digital asset space.
- Stable Value: The stablecoin maintains a consistent 1:1 peg with the Ukrainian hryvnia, ensuring its stability and reliability as a digital counterpart to the traditional currency.
- Secure Transactions: UAHg can be securely stored, transferred, and exchanged across various platforms, offering a high degree of security for transactions.
- Convenient Payment Method: It serves as a convenient medium for payments and value transfers, simplifying transactions in the digital economy.
- Effective Store of Value: UAHg is positioned as an effective store of value, an important characteristic for users looking to preserve wealth in a volatile cryptocurrency market.
UAHg is poised to broaden the accessibility of digital assets to a diverse user base, a point underscored by WhiteBIT founder Volodymyr Nosov:
“Despite the full-scale war in Ukraine, WhiteBIT takes another big step in the development of the Ukrainian crypto community by adding UAHg to the exchange. UAHg does not incur any additional expenses or fees. Thanks to blockchain infrastructure, businesses can use UAHg to launch new innovative products and attract additional investments. In turn, WhiteBIT continues providing its users access to the best products and service solutions.”
