Several Filipino banks are set to launch the PHPX stablecoin using Hedera's distributed ledger technology, aiming to improve cross-border remittances.

Shift Toward a Publicly Exchangeable Stablecoin

UnionBank, through its fintech UBX, has been actively involved in blockchain development. Previously using a quasi-stablecoin in a closed loop, the focus now shifts to creating a publicly exchangeable stablecoin supporting broader use cases, including local and international payments.

The goal is to create a stablecoin that can be used not just for local payments but also for international money transfers with greater speed and control.John Januszczak, UBX CEO

The Role of PHPX in Cross-Border Remittances

Filipino overseas workers send over $40 billion annually. Current systems face high fees and slow processing times. PHPX seeks to address these with faster, more efficient services, enabling direct deposits into bank accounts and payments for education and necessities.

Solution for Multi-Currency Stablecoin Exchange

PHPX plans to support exchange with stablecoins tied to various currencies like USD, SGD, and JPY, facilitating currency conversion in cross-border payments. The exchange will be regulated and compliant with financial norms, ensuring transaction security.

The PHPX stablecoin launch marks a significant advancement in financial technology for the Philippines. This development will make international remittances more accessible, faster, and reliable, benefiting the country's economic stability and its overseas citizens.
