Aptos Selected for US WYST Stablecoin Program with Highest Evaluation Score

The Wyoming Stable Token Commission has announced that Aptos tied with Solana for first place in the selection of blockchain platforms for WYST, a state-issued, fiat-backed stablecoin in the United States. WYST will achieve cross-chain deployment via LayerZero, building a new multi-chain interoperable financial infrastructure.

Aptos natively supports three USD stablecoins, with average monthly stablecoin transaction volumes exceeding $30 billion, offering sub-second finality and an almost zero-cost transaction experience (approximately $0.00055 per transaction).
