Data questions
How often is each stablecoin attested?
Cadence is not assumed from the issuer's marketing. ReserveBeat records the cadence it expects for each token and how that expectation was established, and the table prints both. Where the basis reads as observed, the cadence comes from the spacing of the reports ReserveBeat has actually parsed.
The answer, from the board
| Stablecoin | Expected cadence | How the expectation was established |
|---|---|---|
| OUSD (Bridge Building Inc.) | MONTHLY | ISSUER_STATED |
| PYUSD (Paxos Trust (PayPal USD)) | MONTHLY | OBSERVED |
| RLUSD (Standard Custody (Ripple USD)) | MONTHLY | OBSERVED |
| U (United Stables Limited) | MONTHLY | ISSUER_STATED |
| USD1 (BitGo) | MONTHLY | OBSERVED |
| USDC (Circle) | MONTHLY | OBSERVED |
| USDG (Paxos) | MONTHLY | OBSERVED |
| USDT (Tether) | QUARTERLY | OBSERVED |
| USDtb (Anchorage Digital) | MONTHLY | ISSUER_STATED |
An expected cadence is a description of past publishing behaviour, not a commitment by the issuer and not a legal requirement. A token with too few parsed reports to establish spacing shows an empty cadence rather than a guess, and no cadence on this page should be read as a promise about the next report.

Questions
Common questions
Where do the answers on these pages come from?
Each page reads ReserveBeat's own board when you load it. Figures published by issuers pass through exactly as they appear in the attestation reports ReserveBeat parsed; anything ReserveBeat works out itself is labelled as computed and the calculation is written down.
Why is an answer sometimes empty?
Because ReserveBeat holds nothing for it. An empty cell is never filled with a zero, an estimate, or a figure carried over from somewhere else, and a whole answer is withheld rather than shown stale while the board is under review.
Do these pages define the terms they use?
No. Definitions live in the learn section and are written once. These pages answer questions whose answer is a figure or a state read from the board, and they link to the learn section for the vocabulary.
How often do the answers change?
Whenever the underlying board changes. Nothing on these pages is cached as text, so a new attestation report or a correction shows up on the next page load without anyone rewriting the page.
