Acala provides digital financial solutions such as a StableCoin called aUSD which is A native decentralized stable coin from the Polkadot Blockchain. This aUSD follows the USD price, 1aUSD = 1 USD. aUSD has several features that make it different from other stablecoins, namely: - Censorship Resistance - Multi Collateralized - Secure & Efficient - Natively Cross-chain

aUSD is funded by the Web3 Foundation where the stablecoin project that is at the core of Acala makes it a parachain on the Polkadot network. This aUSD will be a Decentralized stable coin that can be used across the Polkadot and Kusama ecosystems. Acala was not built by Bette Chen alone, she was accompanied by her male friends like Ruitao Su, Fuyao Jiang, and Bryan Chen. They co-founded Acala and other ecosystems of the Polkadot network kinda as Laminar and Polkawallet. https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVUEvh1ND3B7GQqGo533jm4T3QCm8aHNNsQZQTiWcnpKg/3.PNG [source](https://acala.network/) ***Acala*** is one of Polkadot's projects created to close the gap between Ethereum and Polkadot by offering Stablecoins, DeFi services, Liquid Staking, and Decentralized Exchange.

### [Conclusion](https://steemit.com/@novaamalia/posts)

In this post, we can find out that there are already many women out there who are pioneers in the world of technology and can compete with men, as women we must not be consumed by the stereotype that women must be below men. Bette Chen is an example of an outstanding woman who achieved her ambition of being a big name in a well-known Blockchain project this day. The point is to keep the spirit to realize the dream of becoming a strong woman who can compete with men from every aspect without the need to bring each other down, because every human being, both men and woman, has the same rights in carrying out the life they want.
