Token redemption is the process by which a digital token is exchanged for its underlying asset or value. This mechanism allows token holders to convert their digital assets back into traditional currency or other specified collateral. It is a fundamental feature for stablecoins, ensuring their peg to a fiat currency or other asset class.
Context
In the stablecoin sector, token redemption is vital for maintaining price stability and user trust. Users often redeem stablecoins to withdraw fiat currency from crypto exchanges or to exit positions without incurring significant slippage. Regulatory discussions frequently address the transparency and efficiency of redemption processes, especially concerning the backing assets and auditability of stablecoin issuers.
