WPEN is a PEN stablecoin issued by Ripio, launched on 3 Dec 2025.
WPEN is a Peruvian sol stablecoin issued by Ripio under its wFiat brand. It is designed to hold one to one parity with the Peruvian sol, and Ripio states that wFiat tokens are backed by liquid instruments denominated in the reference currency.
Ripio dates the first wPEN mint on World Chain to 3 December 2025. The WPEN contract address is the same across the EVM chains where it is deployed.
WPEN is one of the local-currency stablecoins in the wFiat family, which also covers the Argentine peso, Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Colombian peso and Chilean peso. Unlike some sibling tokens, Ripio has not published an attestation for WPEN.

How far WPEN trades from its PEN peg, from DIA's daily price reads.
Figures are in basis points: 100 bps = 1%.
Peg volatility is how much WPEN's price swings around 1 PEN from one day to the next: the standard deviation over 30 or 90 days. A stablecoin that sits steadily at 0.998 PEN scores near zero. Largest deviation is the single day in the last 12 months furthest from 1 PEN, signed.
The ranking counts every active PEN stablecoin with at least two daily prices in the last 90 days.
Prices are daily closes at 00:00 UTC, from DeFiLlama with CoinGecko where DeFiLlama has no price. The chart beside this panel plots those same daily closes, so every figure in the table can be found on a line here. DeFiLlama quoted rounded and filled prices until 30 September 2025, so for USDT and USDC the closes before 1 October 2025 are the median of exchange closes instead, and a filled US$1.0000 close is left out of the typical move and the largest move.
Stablecoins whose value rises by design, such as savings wrappers, are left out. Their price is a yield curve, not a peg.
Only USD stablecoins are compared. Other currencies are priced through a daily exchange rate fixed at a different time of day from the stablecoin's close. That gap shows up as the same false depeg on every stablecoin of the currency at once.
For a PEN stablecoin, the largest deviation leaves out days when most other PEN stablecoins closed the same distance from par on the same side: that move is the exchange rate, not WPEN. A move WPEN makes alone, or a discount it holds while the others stay at par, is kept.

Where WPEN is supplied in DeFi lending markets and what it earns there.
Ripio positions the wFiat suite for payments, remittances and on and off ramps across Latin America, alongside yield and DeFi features. On 3 December 2025 it announced USDC pairs for wPEN and wCLP on Base and World Chain.
Ripio says its wFiat tokens can be deposited to earn yield, and the wPEN page advertises daily returns. A Dune dashboard for wPEN on Morpho was released in December 2025.
Ripio describes the wFiat suite as covering Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Chile and Peru.

WPEN is designed to be backed by cash and money-market assets.
Ripio states that wFiat tokens are backed one to one by reserves. On its wFiat page the flow is described as deposit local currency, mint the token one to one, hold funds in regulated liquid instruments, and burn the token to redeem. Ripio's wFIAT whitepaper states that a token holder cannot claim any funds or obligations from the issuer and has no redemption right.
The same page says wFiat tokens are not legal tender and are not covered by deposit protection insurance. The reserve counterparty is not named on the wFiat page.
Ripio has published attestations for wARS, wBRL, wCOP and wMXN, each reconciling on-chain issuance and burn with a dated bank balance, certified by local public accountants. No WPEN attestation appears on the wFiat release page, so WPEN's backing rests on the issuer's own statement.

Who licenses WPEN's issuer and how its reserves are reported.
Ripio states that it operates under active licences with AML compliance across its markets. In Argentina it cites a Virtual Asset Service Provider registration with the CNV, a payment service provider relationship with the central bank and UIF compliance.
The wFiat page lists SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II certification, with audits attributed to KPMG, EY and PwC. The same page carries group entity disclaimers for Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Colombia and the United States.
Ripio's disclaimer says wFiat tokens are not legal tender and are not covered by deposit protection insurance, and that virtual asset service provider registration does not imply a licence or supervision by the securities regulator.

The clearest risk on WPEN is the gap between the issuer's claim and an independent check. Ripio has published attestations for wARS, wBRL, wCOP and wMXN, but not for WPEN, so WPEN's reserve rests on the issuer's own statement.
WPEN's backing depends on Ripio holding sol reserves at financial institutions, and Ripio states that wFiat tokens are not covered by deposit protection insurance. The reserve counterparty is not named.

WPEN is a Peruvian sol stablecoin issued by Ripio as part of its wFiat suite. Each token is designed to hold one to one parity with the Peruvian sol and is backed by liquid instruments denominated in that currency. Ripio dates the first wPEN mint on World Chain to 3 December 2025.
Ripio has published attestations for some wFiat tokens, including wARS, wBRL, wCOP and wMXN, described by Ripio as certified by local public accountants as of 31 March 2026. No WPEN attestation appears on Ripio's wFiat release page. WPEN's backing therefore rests on Ripio's own statement that wFiat tokens are backed one to one by reserves.
