Stablecoins Emerge as the Next Infrastructure Layer for Global Payments
Stablecoins are poised to become the foundational LAYER for global money movement, mirroring historical infrastructure shifts like irrigation systems, railroads, and the internet. The recent passage of the GENIUS Act in the U.S. has established the first federal framework for stablecoins, recognizing them as payment instruments. This regulatory clarity has spurred adoption by major financial institutions and fintech leaders.
Circle's Wall Street debut and integrations by companies like Stripe and Shopify underscore the growing institutional embrace of stablecoins. These developments signal a broader transformation, with stablecoins evolving from niche experiments to Core infrastructure for faster, cheaper, and always-on transactions.
