What is true USD
True USD is a stable coin founded in 2018. This was issued only to some invester at that time. The ratio between this and USD was 1:1. This means for every 1 dollar, invester were given 1 TUSD.
This cryptocurrency was fully backed by USD. this means this is a fiat backed cryptocurrency.
It minimize the volatility of price fluctuation In the cryptocurrency world. As we know that in cryptocurrency world, the price of cryptocurrency is very unstable. For example you can see the price of bitcoin over the last 1 week. It's completely unstable. Its price has been decreased to 50000 USD in some days. So one may suffer loss. To avoid this, this stable coin was founded.

For example I own a company and I am in partnership with another company, then in this partnership, a company might have to send assets to another one. Then sending money through banks is a quite lengthy process and transferring cash is very risky. To avoid these both, i will prefer the transfer of money through true USD. By using this, I can avoid lengthy and expensive process of bank transfer and risky process of cash transfer.For exchanging coin
If you invest money in cryptocurrency, you can easily understand that when we sell any crypto currency, then to avoid volatility, we transfer the fund into the fiat account and next time when we want to buy any coin, then we have to pull money out of Fiat account. And in this process, a certain amount of fees a deduced from your account.
So by using true USD (or any other stable coin) you don't have to transfer the money to your fiat account, just to avoid volatility.
As this coin is very stable, you can exchange that with your cryptocurrency. And next time when you want to buy any coin, just exchange this with that coin.
