Paxos是首家受到纽约州金融服务管理局(the New York State Department of Financial Services)直接监管、并在其监管下运营的金融科技公司。在数字资产受到监管的特定市场中，Paxos在以数字化方式实现资产的流动、交换、保管和结算领域具有独特优势。

2018年9月10日，纽约金融服务部（NYDFS）同时批准了两种基于以太坊发行的稳定币，分别是Gemini Dollar和Paxos Standard。这两种稳定币都是和美元1:1锚定的加密数字货币，这两个数字货币将受到美国政府的监管，每月都要进行账户资金审计，如果账户出现问题，美国政府可以通过执法手段进行冻结等操作。PAX（Paxos Standard）是全球首个合规的稳定币，由区块链创业公司Paxos发行，PAX旨在通过提供“现金的数字替代品”来为交易加密资产的投资者提供流动性，用于所有资产类别的即时交易结算。PAX是一款以1:1美元为支持的稳定币，1PAX等于1美元，PAX全部储备将按全额持有的美元进行100%抵押。PAX基于以太坊的ERC-20标准构建，可以在以太坊网络上的任何两个钱包之间发送，经过验证的Paxos客户可以在其公司网站上购买或兑换PAX。

PAX主要有以下特点：

 

01PAX是世界上第一个经政府批准并接受监管的稳定币。
PAX作为稳定币获美国政府批准成立。今年9月份，纽约州金融服务部批准发行了两种稳定币，分别是GUSD和PAX。可以说PAX是首批受到美国政府批准的稳定币之一。
02Paxos Standard遵循以太坊上的标准ERC-20协议。
无缝连接的钱包支持和交易所整合。任何已经应用ERC-20代码的商家都可以在其平台上提供对该代币的支持服务。
03PAX受到严格透明的审计。
USDT虽然自称是按美元1:1配置。但从来不接收审计。也没有正式对外公布过托管账户。这是为人民所诟病的地方。也就是说只有PAX对应美元受到托管时才会存在。Paxos与全美顶尖的会计事务所合作，定期进行月度审计以确保上述银行账户中的美元余额与代币量保持一致。美国顶尖审计事务所Withum会在每月月末对持有美元存款的Paxos银行账户进行审计（采用美国注册会计师协会AICPA制定的标准），从而进一步提高该代币的透明度。
04价格稳定，波动范围小。
稳定币最大的特点就应该是自身保持价格稳定，能够经受市场的冲击。而有不少稳定币出现价格大幅度波动的情况。比如USDT经常出现较大幅度波动。再如DAI，有时波动高达20%多。

Pax Dollar (USDP) was created by Paxos, a financial technology company on a mission to modernize finance by mobilizing assets at the speed of the internet. Paxos was the first virtual currency company to receive a charter from the New York State Department of Financial Services. As a chartered limited purpose trust company with fiduciary powers under the Banking Law, Paxos is able to offer regulated services in the crypto-asset and virtual commodities space. The Paxos team comes from a wide variety of backgrounds with a diverse array of experiences ranging from Wall Street to Silicon Valley. It’s led by CEO and co-founder Charles Cascarilla, who has spent his career as a customer, analyst, investor and now creator of financial technology. Paxos describes itself as “the first regulated Trust company with blockchain expertise”, and it is using that expertise to create a modern settlement solution that can eliminate risk and simplify settlements. What many people may not know about Paxos is that it was actually founded in 2012 as Paxos Trust Company, and that for most of its life it ran the cryptocurrency exchange itBit, which is still operates. The creation of Paxos was a pivot from an exchange platform to a company focused on creating a modern settlement platform using blockchain technology. Paxos has become the most widely adopted cryptocurrency in the fastest time frame, with support from over 20 exchanges and OTC desks in the first five weeks of its existence. It’s been picked up and listed by six of the top ten cryptocurrency exchanges, Binance, OKEx, Gate.io, ZB, KuCoin and DigiFinex. These exchanges are offering PAX as an alternative to the controversial Tether. Unlike the controversy surrounding the people who control Tether, there is no such obscurity when it comes to the people behind Paxos. The CEO and co-founder is Charles Cascarilla. He has over 15 years in financial services and has co-founded Cedar Hill asset management back in 2005. He has also worked and Bank of America and Goldman Sachs prior to that. The Pax Dollar (USDP) is the first digital asset to be issued by a financial institution and to be fully secured by the U.S. dollar. While other similar stablecoins have existed, there has been no proof of full U.S. dollar reserves, nor have these earlier assets been issued by a financial institution. The Paxos team has been fairly clear in declaring the different base that PAX is working from.
