Anchorpoint, a stablecoin joint venture led by Standard Chartered, plans to launch a retail stablecoin on a public blockchain. It did not confirm a launch date at Friday's press conference but previously said the product could arrive as early as the end of 2026. CEO Dominic Maffei said it aims to connect Hong Kong with other payment corridors and bring regulated digital money into everyday payments.
