It is centralized and same with other altcoins that's being run by a certain company. It would help bitcoin somehow by tagging itself as a 'crypto' because bitcoin is a crypto as well. There will be no ICO but it has a wide range of partnership, yes real partnership so it will have its own usecase. I think this is just another the same stablecoin.
Even if it's a centralised coin it is not a big deal. Why? Crypto market need some big names. It will increase the popularity and more and more people will be aware of the crypto currencies. It is a win - win environment for Cryptocurrency market and big companies.
It's not a big deal? the crypto market has grown being known with the implementation of decentralized cryptocurrencies and now that the big names are entering, you say that it's not a big deal? if you are not for the technology and you are just considering that coin to make the market cap higher you can say that easily. But this is a big deal for most crypto enthusiasts that are wanting decentralization. I know those attributes that it can bring to the market but you should understand that we have different opinion regarding this.
