Our Vision & Structure
Tethra is building the compliant, scalable, and transparent backbone for the digital economy. USDTP is the first step in digitizing trusted value globally.
I. The Tethra Mandate: Institutional Trust in Digital Assets
The current global financial system, while robust, is riddled with friction points: slow cross-border settlement, high intermediary fees, and fragmented liquidity. The Tethra Mandate is to resolve these issues by establishing a digital asset ecosystem built on three core pillars: **Verifiable Transparency, Regulatory Alignment, and Unmatched Scalability.**
Trupay USD (USDTP) is not merely another stablecoin; it is a meticulously engineered financial instrument that leverages the speed of the BNB Smart Chain while adhering to the institutional standards required by global financial bodies. Launched on **November 3, 2025**, USDTP is positioned to become the digital dollar of choice for high-frequency trading, enterprise treasury management, and next-generation DeFi applications, particularly in high-growth markets.
Our Guiding Principles (Approx 500 words per principle in actual content)
- **Principle 1: Compliance-First Infrastructure:** We prioritize adhering to evolving global stablecoin legislation (e.g., MiCA, GENIUS Act principles) ensuring long-term operational viability.
- **Principle 2: Decentralized Accessibility, Centralized Accountability:** We offer 24/7 blockchain accessibility while maintaining clear corporate and fiduciary responsibility for the asset reserves.
- **Principle 3: Frictionless Value Transfer:** To make USDTP a utility, not just an investment, we target near-instant, low-cost settlement times, crucial for modern supply chain and payment systems.
II. Collateralization, Audits, and Fiduciary Integrity
Maintaining the 1:1 USD peg is paramount. Trupay USD is structured as a **fully reserved stablecoin**, meaning every USDTP token issued is backed by an equivalent amount of high-quality, liquid assets held in segregated accounts. This section details our conservative, transparent, and audited reserve management strategy.
Detailed Reserve Breakdown (Approx 1000 words in actual content)
1. Composition (Liquidity)
Our reserves consist primarily of **Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Short-Duration U.S. Treasury Bills** (maturity < 90 days), prioritizing liquidity and capital preservation over yield.
2. Custody (Security)
Assets are held by regulated, globally recognized third-party custodians, ensuring the separation of Tethra's operating funds from the user collateral.
3. Attestation (Transparency)
Monthly, independent attestations by a Big Four accounting firm are published publicly, verifying the 1:1 ratio of USDTP issued to USD reserves held.
Minting and Redemption Protocol (Approx 2000 words in actual content)
- **Minting Process:** Fiat currency is received by the custodian → Custodian verifies deposit → API trigger initiates the smart contract to mint equivalent USDTP → USDTP is delivered to the user wallet. (Detailed flowcharts provided in the Whitepaper).
- **Burning Process:** User sends USDTP to the designated Tethra burn address → Smart contract verifies receipt and burns the tokens → Funds are released from the custodian account and transferred back to the user's linked bank account.
III. BEP-20 Architecture: Speed, Efficiency, and Audits
Trupay USD is built on the BNB Smart Chain (BSC) to deliver the optimal balance of transaction speed, cost efficiency, and wide market accessibility. Our smart contract is not just a token factory; it is the core engine for secure minting, burning, and future governance.
Key Smart Contract Features (Approx 3000 words in actual content)
- **OpenZeppelin Standards:** The contract is implemented using industry-standard OpenZeppelin contracts for maximum security and community trust.
- **6 Decimals Precision:** Tailored for institutional financial applications, offering a high degree of precision while optimizing gas costs.
- **Pausability Function:** A necessary feature for regulatory compliance and mitigating black swan events, allowing the issuer to temporarily pause transfers in extreme circumstances (subject to multi-sig governance).
- **External Audit Verification:** The contract code has undergone rigorous security audits by three leading blockchain security firms (details and reports linked).
- **Non-Inflationary Design:** The only mechanism for supply increase is direct fiat collateralization; there are no algorithmic inflation risks.
- **Gas Optimization:** Code is written for maximum efficiency on BSC, ensuring users benefit from the network's low transaction fees.
