On July 10, Fortune magazine reported that stablecoin startup Agora has completed a $50.00 million Series A funding round led by Paradigm.
It is reported that Agora hopes to use this funding to promote the development of its own stablecoin, AUSD. AUSD is a cryptocurrency pegged to underlying assets such as the U.S. dollar. Agora also provides white-label services, allowing other companies to launch their own branded versions of AUSD while sharing the stablecoin's interoperability and liquidity advantages. [BlockBeats]
