A stablecoin is a digital asset designed to hold a fixed value — typically pegged 1:1 to a fiat currency like the US dollar. Because the value doesn’t fluctuate with the broader crypto market, stablecoins are useful for moving value on-chain quickly, settling trades without converting back to fiat, and holding liquidity in a form that can earn rewards or be deployed into DeFi protocols. Anchorage Digital uses a single Convert flow for minting, redeeming, and bridging stablecoins. All operations require iOS app authentication for authorization.

​
Contract addresses

Use the addresses below to confirm you’re interacting with the official on-chain contract for each stablecoin before sending or receiving funds. Always cross-check against the block explorer link and the issuer’s own documentation — never rely on an address from an unverified source.

​
Mint stablecoins

Mint new stablecoins from your USD balance and deposit them directly into a wallet. Each mint converts USD to stablecoins at a 1:1 ratio.

​
Before you start

  • Confirm you have an available USD balance in the source account.
  • Confirm your policy permissions allow you to initiate conversions.
  • Have the Anchorage Digital iOS app available — you’ll need it to authorize the operation.

​
Where to start

You can mint stablecoins from two places in the web dashboard:

Stablecoins dashboard

For managing stablecoin operations across vaults. In the Dashboard, select Stablecoins, then select Convert.

Vault page

For minting directly into a specific vault you’re already working in. Go to your vault and select Convert in the top-right corner.
Both paths use the same conversion form once you reach it.

​
Complete the conversion

1

Select the stablecoin to mint

  1. In the conversion dialog, US Dollars is pre-selected in the From field.
  2. Select the To asset dropdown labeled Select asset.
  3. Choose the stablecoin you want to mint (for example, USDGO on Solana, USDPT on Solana, or USDtb on Mainnet).
2

Select the destination wallet

Choose the wallet where the newly minted stablecoins will be deposited. The available balance for each wallet appears next to its name.
3

Enter the amount

  1. In the From field, enter the amount of USD you want to convert.
  2. The To field automatically populates with the equivalent stablecoin amount at a 1:1 ratio.
  3. Review the summary at the bottom (for example, “Send $100 to issue 100 USDGO on Solana”).
4

Preview and confirm

  1. Select Preview conversion.
  2. Review the operation summary. Confirm the asset, amount, source wallet, and destination wallet are correct.

Quorum approval

If your policy requires multiple approvals, the operation status stays Initiated until the required quorum members have approved the request. You can track progress in the Transactions tab of the Stablecoins dashboard or on the Operations page in the main navigation.
3

Processing

Once the quorum is met:
  • Anchorage Digital reviews the operation.
  • Our Hardware Security Module (HSM) signs the operation.

Open the Portfolio tab of the Stablecoins dashboard or your vault to see the updated balance. The new stablecoins appear in the destination wallet.

​
Redeem stablecoins for USD

Redeem stablecoins for USD directly on the platform. Each redemption burns the stablecoins from your wallet and credits the equivalent USD to your USD wallet at a 1:1 ratio.

​

  • Confirm your policy permissions allow you to initiate conversions.

Stablecoins dashboard

Choose the account and vault that holds the stablecoins, then select the swap arrow between the From and To fields to reverse the direction so the stablecoin is the From asset and USD is the To asset.

Vault page

For redeeming directly from a specific vault. Go to your vault and select Convert. Select the From asset dropdown and choose the stablecoin you want to redeem — the To field automatically switches to US Dollars.
Both paths use the same conversion form once you reach it.

Stablecoin rewards

Stablecoin rewards let your organization earn an ongoing return for holding eligible stablecoins in custody. How it works: you enroll, configure a payout wallet for each eligible asset, and Anchorage Digital calculates rewards daily based on your eligible balance. Rewards are paid to the wallet you choose. Rates are tied to a published reference rate (the Effective Federal Funds Rate for most assets) and tiered by balance, so larger balances earn a higher rate. Your assets remain accessible at any time: no lending, no rehypothecation, and no lockups. Eligible stablecoins: USDtb, USDG, PYUSD, USDe
Organizations with legal entities in Canada or the EU are not eligible for the stablecoin rewards program.
Enrollment must be completed by an admin of your organization. You can enroll even if you don’t currently hold eligible stablecoins — you’ll start earning rewards once you deposit eligible stablecoins and your payout wallets are configured.

​
Where to start

You can enroll in stablecoin rewards from the Stablecoins dashboard. In the Dashboard, select Stablecoins, then go to the Portfolio tab. If your organization isn’t enrolled, select Enroll now next to Rewards status to begin.

​
Configure your payout wallets

1

Open the configuration

Once enrolled, the Rewards status field on the Portfolio tab shows Enrolled, with a Configure button in its place. Select Configure to set the vault and wallet that will receive rewards for each eligible asset.
If your accounts don’t appear immediately, refresh your browser.
2

Select a vault and wallet for each asset

For each eligible asset, choose the vault and wallet where you want to receive rewards. If you don’t have an existing wallet for an asset, follow the deposit address instructions to create one first.
3

Save your configuration

Select Save. The Rewards status field on the Portfolio tab shows whether all assets are configured.

​
Update your configuration

You can change the vault and wallet that receive rewards at any time. Updates must be made by an admin.
1

Open the configuration

On the Stablecoins dashboard’s Portfolio tab, select Configure next to Rewards status.
2

Update and save

Select the new vault and wallet for the asset, then select Save.

​
Rewards rates

Each row in the tables below shows the Annual Rewards Rate that applied for that specific month only. A month’s rate does not carry over or apply to any other month — each one is set independently based on that month’s benchmark.

​
Anchorage Digital issued stablecoins

USDtb Minimum eligible digital asset balance: $0 Rates are updated on the 10th of the following month. For example, November’s rates are updated by December 10.

​
Non-Anchorage-issued stablecoins

USDG Minimum eligible digital asset balance: $0 Reference rate: Effective Federal Funds Rate (EFFR) as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York Tiers are based on eligible balance held with custody/wallet service provider. Rates use EFFR as the base rate, with a spread applied per tier. The rate shown for each month is the net rate — EFFR minus that spread, averaged over the month — and reflects the final annual rate you could have earned holding that balance for the full month. Actual daily rewards are calculated using that day’s EFFR, not the monthly average. PYUSD Minimum eligible digital asset balance: $0 Reference rate: Effective Federal Funds Rate (EFFR) as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York Tiers are based on eligible balance held with custody/wallet service provider. Rates use EFFR as the base rate, with a spread applied per tier.

Each tier’s Annual Rewards Rate (ARR) is expressed as EFFR minus a spread. Stablecoins without a tiered structure apply a single published rate to the full eligible balance, regardless of size.Balance and reward calculationBalance calculation: Eligible digital asset balances are calculated in U.S. Dollars by applying closing prices, as provided by CryptoCompare.com at the close of each day (UTC), or if unavailable, other reliable, reputable third-party pricing sources, selected at Program Administrator’s sole discretion.Reward calculation: Rewards are calculated daily based on the following formula:
Example: For a given day, a participant with less than $1M in PYUSD will accrue rewards of (EFFR − 1.33%) / 365 for that day.
