Eventually other financial institutions will be able to become USDC issuers (and issuers of other fiat stablecoins - e.g. EURC, JPYC, GBPC), and customers will be able to tokenize USD and redeem USDC tokens in an open and interoperable ecosystem of financial institutions. A membership governance model for issuers will ensure that they meet technical, operational, regulatory, compliance and audit requirements. | Dignity is a stablecoin pegged to gold, that was developed by the company Cryptobontix.
