The U token maintains a close peg to the dollar, as it's a next-gen stablecoin designed with native yield United Stables.
Available Trading Pairs and Fees
You can currently find the asset under the ticker U. The main enabled pairs are
U/USDT and U/USDC.
Current promotion: Binance is running a zero transaction fee policy for the U/USDT and U/USDC pairs, significantly reducing your trading costs.
In addition to this, Binance expanded the offering by adding direct exchange pairs against major cryptocurrencies (like BTC/U, ETH/U, BNB/U, SOL/U).
Options and Yield Campaigns
Native Yield (DeFi): The U token has a mechanism that automatically distributes the profits generated by its collateral reserves (like treasury bill interests or RWA yields) to its holders. Depending on how you manage it, it can auto-accumulate direct balance in your wallet without the need for traditional locks.
Active Trading Tournament: Binance recently launched a United Stables Trading Tournament focused on the Spot market. If you register your participation in the campaigns section and accumulate trading volume using eligible U pairs, you can qualify for a share of the prize pool in token vouchers.
Quick Steps to Trade Today:
Log in to your Binance account and head to the Trading section -> Spot.
In the search bar, type the letter U to display the United Stables pairs.
Choose your preferred pair (e.g., U/USDT).
Execute a Market order (instant) or Limit order (at the exact price you want) to buy or sell.
There are no dedicated futures contracts to take leveraged short or long positions on the price of token U, as United Stables (U) strictly functions as a stablecoin pegged to the dollar [$0.9995 - $1.00 USD]. However, you can use your U tokens within the Binance derivatives market through specific structural features.
Functions of United Stables (U) on Binance Futures
Margin Asset in Multiple Asset Mode: You can transfer your U tokens to your Binance Futures wallet and use them as shared collateral. This allows you to open perpetual contracts on volatile cryptocurrencies (like BTC, ETH, or SOL) using your U balance as back-up collateral, without having to sell your stable tokens.
Haircut Rate of 1%: When trading in this multi-asset mode, the system calculates the value of your collateral in real-time applying a minor haircut adjustment of 1%. This means that every $100 USD in U tokens will be formally counted as $99 USD to back your open futures positions.
Transfer Limits by VIP Level: The maximum amounts allowed for deposit and use as margin on the derivatives platform vary according to your user level within the Binance ecosystem.
