DigiDollar Is Live: Launch Week by the Numbers
DigiDollar activated on DigiByte mainnet on July 17, 2026, at block 23,869,440. The first fully decentralized, over-collateralized stablecoin native to a UTXO blockchain is live — you can mint it, hold it, transfer it, and redeem it today, with no custodian and no company in the middle.
Launch week, by the numbers
As of July 18, 2026, the protocol holds about 5.84 million DGB locked as collateral (~$21,000) backing roughly $4,100 in DigiDollar across 32 vaults, at a 501% system collateral ratio. The oracle roster is reporting 27 of 35 slots, 7-of-N MuSig2. These figures move every block — see the current numbers on the live DigiDollar statistics page.
Why this stablecoin is different
DigiDollar is backed by DGB locked in on-chain vaults secured with Taproot time-locks — deliberately over-collateralized, with no liquidation engine. Your collateral is never force-sold in a flash crash; it stays locked under its time-lock until you redeem it. The DGB/USD price comes from a decentralized oracle roster that signs with MuSig2, so no single party — including us — can move the peg.
And the part no custodial stablecoin can claim: every DigiByte node recomputes the collateral behind every DigiDollar every block, roughly every fifteen seconds. It is a public audit that never stops — you never have to trust a quarterly attestation.
We proved the whole rail this week
This wasn't just a switch flip. This week we ran the full lifecycle on mainnet ourselves: minted DigiDollar against locked DGB, held it, sent it to a mobile wallet, and moved it wallet-to-wallet — all clean. Developers can follow the exact procedure (open a vault, mint, track, redeem) in the DigiDollar developer docs, and anyone can read the plain-English explainer at What Is DigiDollar?.
A dollar with no issuer to freeze it and no vault to hide. It is live on DigiByte now — go look at the collateral yourself.
