Wyoming Frant Stablecoin Expands to Hedera

Following a review of possible networks by the Wyoming Stable Token Commission, the regulator responsible for issuing the stablecoin, selected and approved the Hedera blockchain for FRNT’s mainnet launch.

According to Anthony Apollo, the executive director of the Wyoming Stable Token Commission, the body chose Hedera because its technology aligns with their focus on security and compliance.

After its August launch, the stablecoin went live on seven blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Polygon, Optimism, and Base, but users still can’t buy it.

The Wyoming commission said the FRNT stablecoin will hold backing from U.S. dollars and short-term U.S. Treasury bills, with a 102% reserve requirement.

Avalanche developer Ava Labs also announced that the stablecoin works anywhere Visa is accepted, including major mobile payment and digital wallet services like Apple Pay and Google Pay.
