A report fron Reuters states Facebook’s digital currency group Diem Association will launch its USD-pegged stablecoin dubbed Diem USD.

With this announcement comes certain changes on the operation that includes shifting to the Unites States from Switzerland as its main country.

Diem Association’s unit, the Diem Network US will run a blockchain-based payment system that allows real-time transfer of Diem stablecoins.
