The Wyoming Stable Token Commission has partnered with Inca Digital, a data analytics firm specializing in digital markets, to ensure the security and transparency of the new Wyoming Stable Token (WYST) as it nears its launch.

Advanced Data Analysis for Maximum Security

Inca Digital will provide the Commission with in-depth analysis, market-wide surveillance and threat detection. This collaboration should fraud and prevent abuse before WYST goes live. According to Inca, the goal is clear: “Prevention is better than cure.”

Unique First: First Stablecoin By A Government Agency

WYST is likely to be the first stablecoin that is fully backed by real assets (such as government bonds and cash) and issued by a U.S. public entity. Governor Mark Gordon expects the testing phase to last until the second quarter of 2025, with a possible launch in July.

Wyoming as Crypto Forerunner in the US

Wyoming has passed over 2018 crypto laws since 35 and positioned itself as a crypto-friendly state. As a result, over 3.000 tech companies have established a presence in the region. This new stablecoin fits perfectly into the state’s proactive strategy.

“Our collaboration with Inca Digital is an important step towards innovation and safety,”

— Anthony Apollo, Director of the Wyoming Stable Token Commission

What Can You Expect from the WYST?

Like other stablecoins, WYST will be pegged to the value of the US dollar. One token represents $1 and is fully backed by reliable financial assets such as government bonds, cash and repurchase agreements.

A Market That Explodes

According to CoinGecko, the total market cap of stablecoins is currently around $245 billion. With clear regulations, this could happen, according to Standard Chartered grow to as much as $2 trillion within three years
