As noted, Exodus will also integrate the Sovryn Dollar with its multi-currency wallet, allowing general users to make use of the stablecoin.

Sovryn core contributor Yago described the Sovryn dollar as a stablecoin backed by Bitcoin. He said that Exodus’ addition of it demonstrates the “value and stability” of Bitcoin-backed stablecoins and said that the addition would bring DeFi to a wider audience.

Exodus’s status pages show that its wallet currently supports 367 cryptocurrencies. The addition of Sovryn, which is not yet listed, should bring that number to 368.
