Well, it's built on Tendermint Cosmos, I wonder why not on XRP ledger?

Try here instead

Or here. This might help to better understand their reasoning for using Tendermint.

I mean this is awesome right? If they print 3 billion usdx then they will need to hold the same value XRP as collateral right?

 

we need a usdx printing press if that’s true.

If we have xrp can we participate in the POS? That might be interesting.

very interesting concept... just broke my brain trying to visualize how this works

The stablecoin is pegged to a USD and collaterised with Ripple’s XRP.

The USDX appears like the MakerDao, however, it is built on Cosmos, a new blockchain protocol that makes use of Tendermint BFT for consensus. It also has a hub-and-spoke model of cross-blockchain interoperability that emphasizes composability and self-sovereignty of application specific blockchains.

that's some massively complex financial shenanigans
