1. Fidelity Announces Launch of Their Own Stablecoin
Asset management giant Fidelity plans to roll out its own stablecoin, adding another big name to the rapidly expanding stablecoin scene (where we’ve already seen launches from PayPal, World Liberty Financial, and Ripple Labs). The token, backed by short-term Treasuries, fits right in with Fidelity’s broader push into “tokenized finance.”
