Stripe, Visa, Mastercard, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/coinbase\/\">Coinbase<\/a> and Shopify were among its founders, while businesses can begin integrating OUSD through <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/stablecoin-demand-starts-to-fade-as-visa-and-stripe-build-for-the-next-boom\/\">Stripe<\/a>, BVNK and Visa.<\/p>\n<p>Stripe co-founder and Chief Executive Patrick Collison <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/patrickc\/status\/2105321532440625424\">said<\/a> Open Standard was designed so that most reserve yield flows back to participating partners rather than being retained by the stablecoin issuer.<\/p>\n<p>Open Standard says those rewards are allocated based on OUSD supply and the activity partners generate, giving payment companies and platforms an economic incentive to distribute the token.<\/p>\n<p>That model enters a market where scale remains heavily concentrated. Dollar stablecoins are worth more than $300 billion, according to <em>CryptoSlate's<\/em> data, with <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/tether\/\">Tether\u2019s USDT<\/a> at roughly $183.8 billion and <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/usd-coin\/\">Circle\u2019s USDC<\/a> near $74.1 billion. Together they account for about 84% of the market.<\/p>\n<p>OUSD\u2019s roughly $468 million supply represents about 0.15% of the sector, leaving it far behind incumbents with deeper exchange liquidity, broader integrations and established payment usage.<\/p>\n<p>The next test begins as Open Standard expands distribution beyond launch liquidity. Coinbase starts supporting the network Oct. 1, while additional <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/crypto-tried-to-cut-out-visa-and-mastercard-now-theyre-buying-up-blockchain-companies\/\">Mastercard distribution through BVNK<\/a> is planned, giving businesses more routes to hold, move and deploy OUSD across payment and treasury workflows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Transactions carry an unspecified fee, while Stripe product limits and Visa&#8217;s restricted beta shape business access.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":720,"featured_media":567800,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[77968,60208,32631],"tags":[77583,72190,82646,75380,81257,76700],"post_folder":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v21.9 (Yoast SEO v21.9.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Open USD bets Stripe\u2019s $1.9 trillion network can break USDT and USDC\u2019s grip<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Open USD (OUSD) arrives with $468 million in circulation and more than 200 partners, including Stripe) as stablecoin competition shifts.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/open-usd-bets-stripes-1-9-trillion-network-can-break-usdt-and-usdcs-grip\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Open USD bets Stripe\u2019s $1.9 trillion network can break USDT and USDC\u2019s grip\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Open USD (OUSD) arrives with $468 million in circulation and more than 200 partners, including Stripe) as stablecoin competition shifts.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/open-usd-bets-stripes-1-9-trillion-network-can-break-usdt-and-usdcs-grip\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"CryptoSlate\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2026-10-01T16:00:14+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-10-01T12:59:50+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/stripe-open-usd-businesses.webp\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1280\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"720\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/webp\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Oluwapelumi Adejumo\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cryptoslate\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@cryptoslate\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Oluwapelumi Adejumo\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/open-usd-bets-stripes-1-9-trillion-network-can-break-usdt-and-usdcs-grip\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/open-usd-bets-stripes-1-9-trillion-network-can-break-usdt-and-usdcs-grip\/\"},\"author\":{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/author\/oluwapelumi-adejumo\/#person\",\"name\":\"Oluwapelumi Adejumo\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/author\/oluwapelumi-adejumo\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/author\/oluwapelumi-adejumo\/\"},\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/author\/oluwapelumi-adejumo\/#authorimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/profile-oluwapelumi-adejumo-1-300x300.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/profile-oluwapelumi-adejumo-1-300x300.jpg\",\"caption\":\"Oluwapelumi Adejumo\"},\"jobTitle\":\"Senior Reporter\",\"description\":\"Oluwapelumi values Bitcoin's potential.
