BUSD/USD price feed

Issuance of this dollar ended in 2023 under a regulatory directive; the exchange that lent it a name has long since delisted it. None of that switched the market off. A cluster of pools remains active, clearing volume every day, years after the last new token was minted.

The confusion in public data is about counting, not existence. One source reports a few hundred dollars of daily volume, another reports hundreds of thousands, because each samples different venues at different moments. A pool-level measurement replaces that argument with an inventory: these venues, this volume, this block.

The page does not argue with the level or explain it away; it reports what the remaining venues pay, with the block stated beside it.

As issuance ended, listings fell away, the market folded inward rather than switching off: venues in far-flung ecosystems went quiet first, while the chain of the exchange that made the token famous kept trading it. A dollar that once spread across ecosystems walked its liquidity back home; where the remaining book stands in any given week is the data layer's record, not this paragraph's.

The quote mix of a retired dollar has a character of its own: the venues that survive are the ones with a native reason to exist, which for an exchange-born token has meant crosses against its home chain's coin alongside the usual dollar legs.

Coin crosses do not leak volatility into the dollar number. Wherever a remaining pool holds a coin rather than a dollar, that side resolves through its own market before this level forms, so the published figure stays dollars against dollars even where the pool itself holds something else.

Weekly volume across those venues lands in the low millions of dollars. Depth is modest, tens of thousands within one percent at the busiest pools, thinner at the edges. This is not 2022; it is also nothing like zero.

That number will shrink. A market for a discontinued token has one direction over the long run; this feed will report each step of it without ceremony: fewer venues, thinner walls, longer quiet stretches wearing the forward filled label.

Until then the page does the job references exist for. Holders unwinding a position, integrations that still resolve the symbol, auditors checking an old book against what the market paid: they get a measured level for as long as there is a market left to measure. The market decides when this number goes still; no announcement is required.
