Stablecoins: are they crypto’s killer use case or a compromise on decentralization?Host Nathan sits down with Sam Kazemian, CEO of Frax Finance, to unpack why stablecoins are suddenly the hottest topic in crypto, from explosive real-world demand to brand-new U.S. legislation that could change everything.

Sam explains how Frax is building a compliant, genius-act-ready dollar on-chain, why perfect decentralization might be impossible for fiat-pegged assets, and how stablecoins deliver the best of both worlds. No jargon, just the clearest take yet on why stablecoins are the bridge to mainstream adoption.
