01 THE MACHINE READ
WHY IT MATTERS.
A new stablecoin model distributing equity to growth partners could shift competitive dynamics among stablecoin issuers, though no market data or adoption is given.
Stablecoin competition intensifies on incentive design, not scale
CATALYST TO WATCH
Adoption metrics or partner sign-ups
MAIN RISK

FULL DISPATCH
The “overwhelming majority” of Open Standard’s equity will be distributed over time to partners based on how much they help grow the stablecoin, CEO Zach Abrams said.
