Standard Chartered‑led Anchorpoint delays retail stablecoin rollout

According to Cointelegraph, the joint venture formed by Standard Chartered and Animoca Brands previously aimed to provide retail access to a stablecoin by the end of 2026. In a recent statement, the company’s chief executive did not confirm or reaffirm that target date.

The announcement follows discussions about launching a retail‑focused stablecoin under the Anchorpoint brand. While the venture continues work on related projects, the CEO emphasized caution and avoided setting an accelerated schedule for public release.
