  As with any stablecoin, there are some risks and limitations associated with using GUSD. One potential risk is the possibility of the stablecoin losing its peg to the US dollar. While stablecoins are designed to maintain a 1:1 ratio with the underlying asset, market conditions or other factors can cause the value of the stablecoin to fluctuate. It's important for users to monitor the stability of GUSD and be aware of any potential risks that may arise.

  Another limitation of using GUSD is the reliance on a centralized entity. GUSD is issued by Gemini, a regulated cryptocurrency exchange. This means that users are placing trust in Gemini to properly manage and back the stablecoin. While Gemini has taken steps to ensure transparency and security, there is still a level of centralization that may not align with the decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies.
