## What SQD-USD is (and a data caveat)

SQD-USD is the Subsquid token priced against the US dollar (the "-USD" is just the quote currency). Subsquid is a blockchain data-infrastructure protocol — an "onchain data layer" for DeFi, trading analytics, AI agents, stablecoins, RWA and compliance — operating on Arbitrum, launched around May 2024 [[15]](https://www.marketbeat.com/cryptocurrencies/subsquid/). It is a digital asset, not an equity, ETF, or security, so there are no filings, earnings or share fundamentals [[15]](https://www.marketbeat.com/cryptocurrencies/subsquid/).
