Frequently asked questions
What is WSTUSDT and how does it differ from regular USDT?
WSTUSDT is interest-earning USDT that's been staked and wrapped into a tradable token, unlike static USDT. It combines Tether's stability with staking rewards while remaining liquid.
How does the wrapping and staking technology work?
Users deposit USDT into a smart contract that stakes it in a yield protocol, then mints WSTUSDT tokens 1:1. The wrapped tokens automatically accrue staking rewards.
Who controls WSTUSDT's supply and how is it issued?
Supply adjusts dynamically as users stake/unstake USDT through the protocol's smart contracts. New WSTUSDT is minted only when USDT is staked, and burned when redeemed.
How do I store and use WSTUSDT?
Use any ERC-20 or BEP-20 compatible wallet (like MetaMask). It functions like other tokens for trading, lending, or as collateral in DeFi, while earning staking yields.
