Fidelity Investments is reportedly in the final stages of testing its own stablecoin, as part of growing trend among traditional financial institutions exploring tokenized assets and stablecoins.
The move aligns with the growing trend of tokenized U.S. Treasuries, which have surpassed $5 billion in value.
Fidelity's stablecoin initiative reflects its long-term interest in blockchain technology and the potential to bridge blockchain finance with traditional markets.
The U.S. government is preparing to introduce new regulations for stablecoins, with Fidelity's move coming at a time when regulatory clarity is sought.
