Russian defense conglomerate Rostec to launch ruble-pegged stablecoin on TRON
Rostec, the Russian defense and technology conglomerate, announced on July 3 that it will introduce a ruble-pegged stablecoin and a linked payment network this year, utilizing Tron infrastructure.

Deputy General Director Alexander Nazarov stated that the corporation will manage the asset through an in-house platform called RT-Pay. The report also said that each coin carries a legal claim to an equivalent amount of currency, providing companies and individuals with a means to transfer rubles on public rails while meeting domestic compliance requirements.
