Sterling Stablecoin Issuance

Definition

Sterling stablecoin issuance refers to the creation and distribution of stablecoins whose value is pegged to the British Pound Sterling (GBP). These digital assets aim to maintain a stable value relative to the GBP, typically by holding an equivalent amount of fiat currency reserves in regulated financial institutions. Their purpose is to provide a stable medium of exchange within the digital asset ecosystem, facilitating transactions and mitigating price volatility. This enables easier access to the UK fiat currency in digital form.
