What is Worldwide-usd?

Worldwide-usd is a USD-pegged cryptocurrency designed for global payments and decentralized finance. Built on a transparent mint-and-burn mechanism, Worldwide-usd delivers price stability, fast settlements, and broad cross-border usability. Its open-source protocol powers secure, efficient transactions for merchants, developers, and users worldwide.

Why does Worldwide-usd have inflation?

Worldwide-usd inflates when new tokens are minted faster than they are burned or redeemed, such as to fund liquidity programs, staking rewards, or governance initiatives. If minting outpaces redemptions and the backing reserves don’t perfectly offset the growth in supply, the overall supply increases, leading to inflationary pressure.

How is Worldwide-usd inflation calculated?

Worldwide-usd inflation is calculated by comparing the circulating supply from one year ago to today’s supply. The percentage increase in supply over that period is the annual inflation rate. Learn more in our guide: What is cryptocurrency inflation?.

FAQ

We calculate our own inflation and emission data via our algorithms. You can learn more about how we derive our data in the learn page.

We encourage the usage of any data available on this website. You may use it for your personal or educational goals, but do not use it commercially unless you purchase the CryptoInflation API.

We strive to make the data as accurate as possible, but some blockchains have limitations on how precisely supply, inflation, and emission can be calculated. Moreover, the data on this website often has to be averaged and approximated, therefore the data can be a bit off sometimes.

Cryptocurrency emission and inflation aren’t inherently bad—they’re part of how many blockchains secure their networks and incentivize miners or validators. Moderate inflation can help distribute coins fairly and keep the network active, but excessive or poorly managed emission may dilute value and hurt long-term sustainability.
