This year seems to be a trend for states and entities to issue their own stablecoins, regardless of clear use cases. Wyoming’s FRNT could set a precedent for further government-issued digital currencies.
The future will depend on regulatory responses and user adoption as well as how effectively Solana’s infrastructure supports this type of financial innovation.
