Ronin

In the Philippines, the Ethereum-based stablecoin PHPC, developed by the local crypto exchange Coins.ph, has made its debut on the Ronin network. Tied 1:1 to the Philippine Peso, PHPC offers gamers a seamless way to utilize their in-game earnings and funds for real-world transactions within the country.
Announced in a July 8 <a href="https://roninchain.com/blog/posts/phpc-is-live-on-ronin" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">blog post</a>, Ronin revealed that PHPC would soon be exchangeable on Katana, a decentralized exchange (DEX) on the Ronin network. While the exact timeline for this integration remains unspecified, the potential benefits for the community are clear.&nbsp;

Ronin emphasized the significance of this addition, noting that the Philippines constitutes one of the largest segments of the Axie and Ronin communities. By introducing PHPC, new use cases and opportunities for players on the sidechain will emerge, enhancing the overall gaming and financial ecosystem.
Coins.ph plays a crucial role in maintaining PHPC’s stability, ensuring a 1:1 ratio with the Philippine Peso. PHPC will enable fast, low-cost transactions with on-chain Pesos P2P transfers. With PHPC on Ronin, players can use their in-game earnings and funds to pay for goods and services within the country.
The exchange supports the stablecoin’s liquidity by maintaining a reserve pool that includes cash and other traditional financial instruments. This robust backing underscores the commitment to maintaining the stablecoin’s value and reliability, fostering greater trust among users.
This development comes at a pivotal time, as the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) signaled in early May its intention to introduce a regulatory framework for the crypto market in the latter half of 2024. SEC Chair Emilio B. Aquino highlighted that these forthcoming guidelines aim to regulate crypto trading in the nation while ensuring investor security. The introduction of such a framework could further bolster confidence in digital currencies and promote their wider adoption.
As PHPC becomes integrated into the Ronin network, Philippine gamers and crypto enthusiasts can look forward to more versatile and practical applications of their digital assets, marking a significant step forward in the convergence of blockchain technology and everyday financial transactions.
