The Frontier Stable Token (FRNT), Wyoming’s state-backed stablecoin, is preparing for deployment on the Hedera blockchain after its mainnet debut in August.
The Wyoming Stable Token Commission, the state-appointed body overseeing FRNT, announced Hedera’s selection as a candidate network after reviewing several options.

FRNT initially went live across seven blockchains – Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Polygon, Optimism, and Base.
Anthony Apollo, the Commission’s executive director, said Hedera was chosen due to its strong security and compliance features.
Despite its launch, FRNT remains unavailable for purchase, with no public timeline confirmed.
The Commission’s website only notes that purchasing details will be announced “soon.”
Wyoming has built a reputation as a crypto-friendly state, setting early precedents by classifying digital assets on par with fiat currency.
This supportive environment has attracted major firms, including Kraken, which announced plans in June to relocate its global headquarters to Cheyenne.
Alongside regulatory innovation, Wyoming continues to host policy discussions and industry advocacy, such as a recent event featuring a Department of Justice official proposing new enforcement approaches for the crypto sector.
