As covered by U.Today previously, Ripple's rival Stellar will utilize the second-largest stablecoin, USD Coin (USDC), in its cooperation with Moneygram.

Turning stablecoins carbon-neutral

The long-term partnership with the Digital Pound Foundation is set to reaffirm Ripple's focus on the stablecoin sphere. Recently, it entered into a partnership with Bhutan's central bank, the Royal Monetary Authority (RMA).

Ripple will provide technical, consulting and advisory support for Bhutan's CBDC workload.
