USDT is a stablecoin (stable-value cryptocurrency) that mirrors the price of the U.S. dollar, issued by a Hong Kong-based company Tether. The token’s peg to the USD is achieved via maintaining a sum of commercial paper, fiduciary deposits, cash, reserve repo notes, and treasury bills in reserves that is equal in USD value to the number of USDT in circulation.
The underlying principle of the TIP-3 standard is that smart contracts for user wallets are only allowed to deploy the root smart contract from their address. User wallets have a code identical to that of the root smart contract but contain different user data. The TIP-3 standard also describes the basic ways in which user smart contracts interact with each other and the mechanisms for checking a smart contract’s type by using the address of its location in the blockchain. This standard only laid out the basic principles, so Everscale developers created several modifications of TIP-3, the most common of which was the TIP-3/Broxus standard.
