What banks are in the CHF stablecoin sandbox?

UBS, PostFinance, Sygnum, Raiffeisen, ZKB, and BCV. It's open to more players this year.

Why choose Swiss franc for a stablecoin?

CHF's ultra-stable (pegged vibes since forever), neutral, and backed by a hawkish central bank — perfect for low-risk blockchain apps.

Will bank stablecoins kill crypto-native ones like USDT?

Not kill, but carve trust niches. Finance teams pick banks for compliance; traders stick with crypto speed.
