USDG (Global Dollar) is the cash leg of every mint, redeem and fee. Get some here — or skip it entirely with in-kind minting.
USDG is the dollar of Robinhood Chain — a regulated stablecoin (Paxos / Global Dollar Network) and the deepest liquidity pair for every stock token. All box math is USDG-denominated: you pay in USDG, fees accrue in USDG, redemptions cash out to USDG.
Don't want the cash leg at all? Every box also supports in-kind mint & redeem — deliver or receive the underlying stock tokens directly, no swaps, no slippage. Look for the IN-KIND switch in any box's trade panel.
The testnet faucet hands out stock tokens, not USDG, and Uniswap isn't deployed here — so there is nothing to swap through. Good news: you don't need USDG at all.
