Frax Finance is partnering with BlackRock to introduce two new stablecoins, Frax USD (frxUSD) and Staked Frax USD (sfrxUSD), in order to enhance the security and utility of stable digital assets.

Collaboration with BlackRock and NEAR Protocol

Frax Finance is collaborating with BlackRock and NEAR Protocol to strengthen the decentralized stablecoin infrastructure and create programmable money that meets the evolving needs of the financial landscape.

The introduction of frxUSD will provide a reliable stablecoin, while sfrxUSD will allow users to earn yield through staking. By integrating traditional finance elements with decentralized finance (DeFi), Frax Finance aims to create a robust financial instrument that appeals to a wide range of users.

Enhancing Stability with BUIDL and Paxos

To enhance the stability of frxUSD, Frax Finance is exploring an integration with BUIDL, a tokenized fund managed by BlackRock that primarily holds short-term U.S. Treasury Bills. This integration aims to mitigate counterparty risk and increase user confidence in the stablecoin.

Additionally, Frax Finance is collaborating with Paxos to facilitate the conversion of stablecoins into fiat currency, further reinforcing the role of frxUSD in the broader financial ecosystem.

Advancing Decentralized Artificial Intelligence with NEAR Protocol

Frax Finance is also collaborating with NEAR Protocol to advance decentralized artificial intelligence and programmable money. This partnership aims to create frxNEAR, a stablecoin that complements the NEAR Protocol ecosystem.

By leveraging the strengths of both platforms, Frax Finance is positioning itself as an innovative player in the stablecoin space.

Shaping the Future of Stablecoins

These partnerships and initiatives reflect Frax Finance's strategic approach to addressing the challenges and opportunities in the stablecoin market. By combining traditional finance with decentralized technologies, Frax Finance is poised to shape the future of stablecoins and programmable money.
