This board is strictly for altcoin discussion (I.e only discussions related to altcoin should be posted here) not altcoin announcement. I believe the appropriate board for this is "Announcement threads for tokens (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=240.0/) " or somewhere else but not her so op kindly use the move button.

I tried to search for Algorand announcement thread in this section, and this is the only thread that I was able to find. For a project like Algorand, I believe that there should be a properly maintained announcement thread.

Is someone working on it or should I create one?

The CENTRE consortium, led by Coinbase and Circle, announced Thursday its U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin, USD Coin (USDC), would be launched on the Algorand blockchain as part of a new collaboration with the Algorand Foundation. 


It was bound to be listed since ALGO secures USDC

Algorand’s market capitalization has hit a new all-time high after a sudden Coinbase listing sparked the third-strongest day of trade in the coin’s history.
On July 16, Coinbase abruptly announced that ALGO trading had been launched on Coinbase.com and the exchange’s apps. Trade volume for Algorand increased by nearly four times since in response to the listing, comprising the third-strongest day of trade in ALGO’s history.
