This US State’s New Stablecoin Honors a Legendary President

North Dakota is partnering with Fiserv to launch a USD-backed stablecoin. Roughrider Coin, based on President Teddy Roosevelt, will hopefully conduct a pilot launch in 2026.

There aren’t many details available about any technical questions, but that’s fairly unsurprising. It may take months to choose a blockchain for this token, if the last state-run stablecoin is any consideration.

North Dakota’s Stablecoin

Wyoming made headlines last month when it became the first US state to launch a stablecoin, a process that took several months to develop.

Today, Fiserv, a fintech and payments company, made a joint announcement with the state-owned Bank of North Dakota, claiming that they will also launch a dollar-backed stablecoin soon.

The new stablecoin in question has been dubbed “Roughrider Coin,” after President Teddy Roosevelt’s famous cavalry regiment.

Although Roosevelt was not a North Dakota native, he spent much of his life as a state resident, lending his likeness to the stablecoin.

A Dearth of Web3 Details

Thanks to the partnership with North Dakota’s government and state banks, Fiserv hopes to launch the stablecoin as a pilot in 2026. This soft release will include banks and credit unions, but there aren’t many details available.

Unfortunately, there’s very little concrete information right now, other than the enthusiasm of the participants. Most of the press release consists of quotes and the relevant companies’ backgrounds, not any data pertinent to the token’s capabilities.

This shouldn’t be that surprising, though. Wyoming took months to decide on a blockchain for its stablecoin, and North Dakota is starting from the very beginning too. We may be waiting quite a while before we learn any practical details.

Still, this could be a huge milestone for US crypto adoption. North Dakota is on track to be the second state with its own stablecoin, but it might not be the last.

Edges higher ahead of BoC-Fed policy outcome

Edges higher ahead of BoC-Fed policy outcome

The post Edges higher ahead of BoC-Fed policy outcome appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. USD/CAD gains marginally to near 1.3760 ahead of monetary policy announcements by the Fed and the BoC. Both the Fed and the BoC are expected to lower interest rates. USD/CAD forms a Head and Shoulder chart pattern. The USD/CAD pair ticks up to near 1.3760 during the late European session on Wednesday. The Loonie pair gains marginally ahead of monetary policy outcomes by the Bank of Canada (BoC) and the Federal Reserve (Fed) during New York trading hours. Both the BoC and the Fed are expected to cut interest rates amid mounting labor market conditions in their respective economies. Inflationary pressures in the Canadian economy have cooled down, emerging as another reason behind the BoC’s dovish expectations. However, the Fed is expected to start the monetary-easing campaign despite the United States (US) inflation remaining higher. Investors will closely monitor press conferences from both Fed Chair Jerome Powell and BoC Governor Tiff Macklem to get cues about whether there will be more interest rate cuts in the remainder of the year. According to analysts from Barclays, the Fed’s latest median projections for interest rates are likely to call for three interest rate cuts by 2025. Ahead of the Fed’s monetary policy, the US Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the Greenback’s value against six major currencies, holds onto Tuesday’s losses near 96.60. USD/CAD forms a Head and Shoulder chart pattern, which indicates a bearish reversal. The neckline of the above-mentioned chart pattern is plotted near 1.3715. The near-term trend of the pair remains bearish as it stays below the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which trades around 1.3800. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) slides to near 40.00. A fresh bearish momentum would emerge if the RSI falls below that level. Going forward, the asset could slide towards the round level of…
