The new Stablecoin
The Argentine province (1) of San Luis enacted a law permitting the creation of its stablecoin tied to the dollar. The “Activo Digital San LuisProvincero” token, which will be made available to all province residents over 18, is entirely secured by the government’s liquid financial asset. The province is permitted to issue the stablecoin up the province’s yearly budget under the bill’s terms. It also allows for the transfer of assets between parties. However, it is unclear which chain will be utilized in these transactions. A region in San Luis has a population of over 430,000.
The stablecoin issuance is just one of the programs outlined in the bill titled “Financial Innovation for Investment and Social Economic Development,” which seeks to use blockchain technology to advance development across several province-wide industries, including generating value and enhancing auditing processes.
