Coinbase joins OpenUSD, raising questions over Circle\'s position
Coinbase, a key partner behind Circle\'s USDC, has joined the founding camp of new stablecoin OpenUSD (OUSD), reports said. OpenUSD says it will charge no issuance or redemption fees and share much of reserve interest with distribution partners. Circle Chief Executive Jeremy Allaire defended USDC’s network effects and cited data on its on-chain volumes. Analysts flagged cold-start hurdles, consortium coordination and regulatory risks.

OpenUSD aims to reshape stablecoin revenue model, compete head-on with USDC
OpenStandard has unveiled OpenUSD, a stablecoin that shares reserve income with distribution and payment partners rather than paying returns directly to holders. The project is positioned as a shared infrastructure with more than 140 named partners, including Visa, Stripe and Coinbase. Key disclosures such as supply, redemption history and reserve details have not been released, with launch expected in late 2026. The model comes as U.S. policymakers debate restricting yield on payment stablecoin balances.
