The launch of a new US dollar-backed stablecoin called OUSD has created confusion among several Korean companies that were listed as partners in the project, a South Korean business and financial news publication, ChosunBiz, noted on July 3. The issuer, Open Standard, announced plans to launch OUSD later this year with support from around 140 global companies. These include Visa, Mastercard, BlackRock, Google, Samsung Electronics, and other Korean card issuers. However, some of these companies said they had no formal agreement to join. They were surprised to find that they had already been listed as consortium members despite not having made a formal commitment.
