Stablecoin Ecosystems First Principles: Business Models and Trajectories

This episode offers an extensive analysis of stablecoin ecosystems, examining their diverse typologies, including fiat-collateralized (USDT, USDC), crypto-collateralized (DAI), and algorithmic models, along with their operational mechanics and associated risks. It details how stablecoins bridge traditional and digital finance, serving as critical tools for payments, remittances, and the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem, while also highlighting their significant impact as major holders of U.S. Treasury securities. The analysis also covers the evolving U.S. regulatory landscape, particularly the GENIUS Act of 2025, and addresses ethical concerns related to government officials' financial interests in the crypto space. Finally, it provides a future outlook, predicting continued dominance by regulated, fiat-backed stablecoins and emphasizing the benefits of enhanced financial accessibility alongside remaining challenges like regulatory fragmentation and illicit finance.
