INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana — April 9, 2024 — Sarson Funds, in collaboration with the Casper Association, proudly announced today the initiation of the csprUSD stablecoin on the Casper Network testnet.
The csprUSD stablecoin enters the digital currency market as the latest fiat-backed contender, aligning with recent offerings from entities like Ripple and Cardano. Uniquely engineered to meet the evolving regulatory landscape, csprUSD is pegged to the US dollar much like established industry leader USDC.
“We are excited to see such technical and product innovation on the public Casper blockchain”, says Alizee Carli, Head of Ecosystem at the Casper Association, “A growing number of applications and partners are building critical infrastructure which will make use of stablecoins.”
Sarson Funds reports a substantial increase in user engagement and network expansion within the Casper ecosystem, a trend accompanied by a rising demand for stablecoins. csprUSD is strategically designed to bolster this growth, offering a stable, fiat-backed digital currency that complies with current and upcoming standards of U.S. regulatory frameworks for transactions on American exchanges.
The momentum for stablecoin legislation in the US is rapidly accelerating, reflecting a bipartisan consensus on the need for regulatory measures to secure the cryptocurrency market. Anticipated legislation aims to establish stringent standards for stablecoin issuance, mandating partnerships with regulated U.S. banks, engagement with independent auditors, and the implementation of collateral asset controls.
“When Stablecoin legislation passes, we are going to quickly discover which stablecoins are not going to be allowed on US exchanges,” says Sarson Funds CEO John Sarson, suggesting that many existing stablecoins do not qualify. “Today’s testnet launch marks the beginning of a robust testing period to understand and optimize the performance of csprUSD before the final step of going live on Mainnet.”
Sarson Funds, a specialized asset manager in the blockchain sector, collaborates with industry leaders WeaveChain for development, BlockPass for compliance solutions, and Custodia Bank for secure banking services, cementing a robust foundation for the csprUSD stablecoin.
Sarson Funds stands at the forefront of blockchain and cryptocurrency education and marketing services, dedicated to the financial professional community and their clientele.
