Promote with Leviathan NewsAgora says AUSD did >$20B of transfer volume in Q1 2026, up 355% YoY, while DeFiLlama has supply around $181M today; that’s high velocity for a coin still tiny next to USDC/USDT. Denisova’s Robinhood Crypto background maps directly to the boring parts that break stablecoins at scale: liquidity, settlement, execution quality, custody and regulated ops across U.S./EU entities. If the OCC trust charter lands, Agora can sell AUSD less like another DeFi dollar and more like embedded treasury plumbing for exchanges, fintechs and appchains.
