Trump-Linked Panel Examines Stablecoin Proposal For Postwar Gaza
Officials advising former President Donald Trump's "Board of Peace" are exploring the potential use of a US dollar-backed stablecoin to help rebuild Gaza's economy after the war with Israel. The proposal, still in early stages, would involve Gulf Arab and Palestinian companies with digital currency experience. Supporters argue a digital currency could reduce Hamas's access to physical cash and lessen dependence on Israeli control over currency flows. However, concerns have been raised that a separate Gaza digital system might deepen the economic divide with the West Bank by hindering easy payments between the two regions. The regulatory framework remains undecided, and the idea is currently exploratory.
