With the SDK, Hedera wants to bring more stablecoin applications, sparing developers from blockchain hurdles. 
Hedera, an open-source proof-of-stake network, is set to compete with blockchain giants like Ethereum (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/ethereum/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/price/ethereum/">ETH</a>) in deploying stablecoins with a new toolkit. In a <a href="https://hedera.com/blog/stablecoin-studio-an-open-source-sdk-now-available-on-the-hedera-network-enabling-any-organization-to-easily-build-stablecoin-applications" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blog post</a> on Sept. 14, Hedera revealed a new open-source tool to build stablecoin applications on its network. 
The SDK named Stablecoin Studio supports 3rd-party data sources and API integrations with pre-determined custody and KYC/AML providers, allowing stablecoin issuers to provide public disclosures of collaterals.

Hedera says Shinhan Bank and SCB TechX already have a stablecoin remittance proof-of-concept (PoC) using Stablecoin Studio.

Amid the news, Hedera’s native cryptocurrency <a href="https://crypto.news/price/hedera/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">HBAR</a> gained 5.8%, reaching the $0.51 mark, according to TradingView data. The crypto’s market capitalization rose to $1.7 billion. 
In March 2023, Hedera suspended network proxies on its mainnet, referring to “network irregularities.” Critical network services like wallets and decentralized exchanges were also turned off. Defi research firm Ignas wrote in an X post — referring to Pangolin Exchange CEO Justin Trollip — that the exploit targeted the “decompiling process in smart contracts.”
