Fidelity Investments has launched Fidelity Digital Dollar, or FIDD, a stablecoin aimed at a market now dominated by Tether and Circle. According to the input, the product is tied to a tokenized money market fund, a structure described as a way to avoid restrictions under the GENIUS Act on paying interest directly. The report says Fidelity is bringing the product to market with the backing of distribution channels linked to nearly $18 trillion in assets under management. It also points to the firm’s base of more than 50 million investor clients and its existing platform, which could give the stablecoin direct access to traditional finance users. The same input places the current stablecoin market at about $297 billion. The item was cited by Techub, with spaziocrypto referenced in the brief.
