Stablecoins And Circle's IPO | The Brainstorm EP 91 26:13

۴ روز پیش26:13

26:13

In this episode, Sam Korus discusses stablecoins with Lorenzo Valente and Raye Hadi. They explore the definition of stablecoins, their impact on the US dollar, and the competitive dynamics between major players like Tether and Circle. The conversation delves into the role of stablecoins in emerging markets, their business models, and the potential convergence with AI transactions. They also address concerns regarding stability, privacy, and the future of stablecoins in the financial ecosystem. If you know ARK, then you probably know about our long-term research projections, like estimating where we will be 5-10 years from now! But just because we are long-term investors, doesn’t mean we don’t have strong views and opinions on breaking news. In fact, we discuss and debate this every day. So now we’re sharing some of these internal discussions with you in our new video series, “The Brainstorm”, a co-production from ARK and Public.com. Tune in every week as we react to the latest in innovation. Here and there we’ll be joined by special guests, but ultimately this is our chance to join the conversation and share ARK’s quick takes on what’s going on in tech today. Key Points From This Episode: Stablecoins are pegged to a dollar value to reduce volatility. Tether and Circle dominate the stable coin market with 85% share. Emerging markets are increasingly using stablecoins for transactions. The business model of stablecoins relies on reserve backing and transaction fees. Stablecoins can unlock significant amounts of dead capital in emerging markets. AI agents may prefer stablecoins for their programmable nature. Concerns about de-pegging and liquidity are prevalent in the market. The future of stablecoins could be expansive if regulatory frameworks support them. Stablecoins are currently about 1% of the US money supply. The potential for stablecoin supply to grow to 1.5 trillion in the next five years.
