The Rise of Stablecoins
Stablecoins, particularly those pegged to the U.S. dollar, are gaining significant traction as a fundamental element of the cryptocurrency landscape. The increasing recognition of stablecoins as a 'killer app' by mainstream financial media highlights their potential utility in global markets. For instance, USDC has emerged as a compliant option not only in the U.S. but also in various jurisdictions, including the European Union, where it became the first global stablecoin to meet new regulations. This legal clarity enhances the trust and usability of stablecoins, promoting their acceptance among a broader range of users, from individual households to corporations.
