A new stablecoin, GBPT, enters the market. The 'poundtoken' will be lbacked by the British pound and it will be audited by KPMG.
Fintech firm blackfridge has launched a new stablecoin that is fully backed by the British pound , potentially opening the door to wider adoption of digital assets in the United Kingdom and its Crown Dependencies.
The newly launched “poundtoken,” which trades under the ticker “GBPT,” will be available for trading on Gate.io, Bittrex Global and Uniswap, blackfridge announced Monday. GBPT is said to be fully backed by the British pound, which means that every token issued will have an equivalent value held in reserves.
GBPT’s reserve status is regulated by the Isle of Man Financial Services Authority, which oversees deposit and investment businesses in the self-governing British Crown Dependency. Big Four accounting firm KPMG has been appointed to audit poundtoken’s reserves — a process that will occur monthly. Nicholas Maybin, poundtoken’s chief operating officer, said stablecoins have become an “integral part of the crypto sector.” Stablecoins were initially established to give cryptocurrency users
. Over the years, their use cases have grown to include payments, remittances, lending and escrow services. As such, stablecoins play an integral role in the decentralized finance, or DeFi, market.
