Stablecoin Standard Announces Development of Groundbreaking Standards for DeFi Stablecoins
London, UK – April 15, 2025 – Stablecoin Standard, the global industry body for stablecoin issuers, is excited to announce that it is actively developing a comprehensive set of Standards for Decentralized Finance (DeFi) stablecoins. This initiative reflects Stablecoin Standard’s commitment to fostering trust, transparency, and innovation in the rapidly growing DeFi ecosystem.
The forthcoming Standards will provide a robust framework for stablecoin projects, developers, and market participants, addressing critical areas such as:
Transparency: Establishing clear disclosure practices for reserves, audits, and governance.
Security: Strengthening smart contract resilience to safeguard users.
Compliance: Balancing global regulatory expectations with decentralization principles and practicalities.
Sustainability: Promoting long-term viability and stability of DeFi stablecoins.
Christian Walker, Chairman and Co-Founder of Stablecoin Standard, commented:
"As the DeFi space continues to evolve, we recognize the pressing need for a unified framework that supports innovation while ensuring user protection and market integrity. These Standards are being developed with input from industry leaders and regulators globally, and we look forward to sharing them with the community soon."
Beth Haddock, Advisory Board and Global Head of Policy, added: "DeFi reflects the promise of safe, peer-to-peer transactions and financial privacy. With regulatory clarity still lagging behind for DeFi stablecoins, we’re stepping in to provide practical guidance—and we welcome feedback. Join the conversation and help shape the future."
The Standards are currently in development, with input being gathered from members, partners, and global stakeholders. Stablecoin Standard is committed to ensuring that the framework reflects the needs of the industry while promoting responsible growth and adoption of digital financial systems.
Once finalized, the Standards will be made publicly available on the Stablecoin Standard website. To further engage with the community, the organization plans to host webinars, roundtables, and other forums to discuss the framework and gather feedback for future updates.
This initiative is part of Stablecoin Standard’s broader mission to onboard the world to digital money through education, best practice sharing, and policy engagement.
