A Cardano-powered algorithmic stablecoin called Djed ($DJED) is set to launch early next year on the smart contract platform’s mainnet, according to an announcement developers made at the Cardano Summit in Lausanne, Switzerland. Djed, as CryptoGlobe previously reported, is an algorithmic stablecoin issued by fintech startup COTI Group. It’s a crypto-backed pegged algorithmic stablecoin for Cardano that uses smart contracts to ensure price stabilization.
