Western Union has applied for the WUUSD trademark and plans to launch the Solana stable currency system

Western Union has applied for the WUUSD trademark, covering multiple encryption services. The company plans to launch a stablecoin system on Solana in the first half of 2026. Western Union Holdings, Inc. has filed a trademark application for WUUSD with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for crypto wallet, exchange and stablecoin payment processing services. The application has been accepted but has not yet been assigned to an examiner. Western Union also plans to launch a digital asset network in partnership with Anchorage Digital Bank as a cash outlet for its stablecoin service. The difference between WUUSD and USDPT is unclear.
