Finance Goes 'Invisible': How Stablecoins Are Becoming the New Arteries of the Digital Economy

This article explores the transformative role of stablecoins as the "new arteries" of the digital economy, moving finance into an "invisible" infrastructure layer. Key developments include Coinbase's major product upgrades, positioning it as an "Everything Exchange" that integrates trading, derivatives, stablecoins, and AI-driven services. Stablecoin adoption is accelerating, with Visa now allowing USDC settlements within the U.S. banking system, marking a structural shift in settlement layers. Regulatory progress is evident as U.S. authorities conditionally approve federal trust bank charters for firms like Ripple and Circle, while the FDIC advances stablecoin rules. New stablecoin products and payments integrations are emerging, such as PayPal's PYUSD for YouTube creator payouts and ADNOC's adoption of a national stablecoin at gas stations. Major financial institutions, including JPMorgan, are actively exploring tokenized deposits and assets on public blockchains. The growth of gold-backed stablecoins and national strategies like the UAE's push for asset tokenization further highlight the expansion of stablecoins beyond pure currency use cases into broader economic infrastructure. However, JPMorgan analysis suggests stablecoin growth may be limited by competition from bank-issued tokenized deposits and CBDCs, projecting a market cap of $500-600 billion by 2028.

Fed seeks input on account type attractive to crypto firms

The US Federal Reserve is seeking public input on a proposed "payment account" or "skinny master account" that would grant fintech and crypto firms access to the central bank's payment system without requiring full master account approvals. Fed Governor Christopher Waller stated these accounts aim to support innovation while maintaining safety, reflecting rapid developments in payments. However, Governor Michael Barr expressed concerns over potential money laundering and terrorist financing risks, especially for institutions not directly supervised by the Fed. Crypto firms like Circle, Coinbase, Kraken, and Block could benefit, potentially bridging crypto and traditional banking. Unlike master accounts, these payment accounts would not earn interest, lack access to Fed credit, and have balance caps. The comment period closes 45 days after Federal Register publication, with operational launch expected in Q4 2026.

US lawmakers propose tax break for small stablecoin payments, staking rewards

US lawmakers have introduced a discussion draft proposing tax exemptions for small stablecoin payments and deferral options for staking and mining rewards. The bill, introduced by Representatives Max Miller and Steven Horsford, aims to amend the Internal Revenue Code to accommodate the growing use of digital assets in everyday transactions. It would exempt gains or losses on stablecoin transactions under $200, provided the stablecoin is dollar-pegged and issued under the GENIUS Act. Additionally, taxpayers could defer income recognition from staking and mining rewards for up to five years, addressing concerns around "phantom income." The draft also includes anti-abuse measures and extends certain securities rules to digital assets. Meanwhile, crypto industry groups are urging the Senate to reconsider proposed restrictions on stablecoin rewards.

Galaxy predicts stablecoins will overtake ACH transaction volume in 2026

Galaxy Research forecasts that stablecoins will surpass the U.S. Automated Clearing House (ACH) system in transaction volume by 2026, driven by regulatory clarity and increasing adoption. Stablecoins already exceed major credit card networks like Visa and currently process about half of ACH volumes. The stablecoin market, valued at around $309 billion, is dominated by USDT and USDC, but new entrants like Western Union, Sony Bank, and SoFi are launching their own dollar-pegged stablecoins. Galaxy also predicts Bitcoin could reach $250,000 by late 2027, with potential new all-time highs in 2026. The report highlights the GENIUS Act’s expected implementation in early 2026 as a key growth catalyst.

The Catfish Effect Emerges: Stablecoins Are Forcing the Banking System to Improve Efficiency and Interest Rates

The article "The Catfish Effect: Stablecoins Are Forcing Banks to Improve Efficiency and Interest Rates" challenges the initial fear that stablecoins would trigger massive bank deposit outflows. Instead, research indicates that due to the "stickiness" of deposits—where traditional checking accounts remain central for interoperability with mortgages, credit cards, and salaries—no significant correlation exists between stablecoin growth and bank disintermediation. Rather than being a threat, stablecoins act as a competitive force, compelling banks to offer higher deposit rates and improve operational efficiency. Proper regulation, like the GENIUS Act which mandates full reserve backing with safe assets, addresses risks such as runs and liquidity issues. Ultimately, stablecoins complement the traditional system, promising efficiency gains through atomic settlement and faster cross-border payments, potentially upgrading the dollar's infrastructure and fostering greater financial inclusion.

What Malaysia’s royal stablecoin reveals about Asia’s shift to tokenized money

Malaysia's RMJDT is a ringgit-pegged stablecoin issued by Bullish Aim, a company linked to Johor's Crown Prince, on the Zetrix blockchain. Designed for payments and cross-border trade, it is backed by ringgit cash and government bonds, with a conservative reserve model. A separate treasury funded with Zetrix tokens aims to ensure network stability. This initiative reflects Asia's broader shift toward regulated tokenized money, where stablecoins are increasingly subject to licensing, reserve rules, and redemption requirements. It also highlights the growing need for onchain settlement in local currencies to support the expansion of tokenized assets, as seen in regional efforts like Singapore's Project Guardian. Regulatory frameworks in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Japan emphasize supervised issuance, aligning with Malaysia's phased approach to financial tokenization.

RWA Weekly: Coinbase Announces Launch of Prediction Markets and Tokenized Stocks; Stablecoin U Goes Live on BNB Chain and Ethereum

RWA Weekly Roundup: Coinbase Launches Prediction Markets and Tokenized Stocks; Stablecoin $U Debuts on BNB Chain and Ethereum The on-chain RWA market cap rose slightly to $18.9 billion, while stablecoin market capitalization exceeded $300 billion, though transaction activity declined, indicating a "stagnant liquidity" phase. Regulatory developments accelerated globally, with China promoting the digital yuan, and the U.S., Canada, and Hong Kong advancing stablecoin and asset tokenization frameworks. Traditional financial institutions expanded their involvement: JPMorgan launched a tokenized money market fund on Ethereum and integrated JPM Coin with Base, while Visa and Mastercard extended stablecoin payment services. DTCC partnered with Canton Network for U.S. Treasury tokenization. Coinbase introduced prediction markets and tokenized stocks, PayPal launched a PYUSD savings vault, and SoFi issued its own stablecoin, SoFiUSD. Emerging markets like Brazil and Pakistan also explored sovereign asset tokenization. Stablecoin $U went live on BNB Chain and Ethereum, integrating with DeFi protocols like PancakeSwap and ListaDAO. Despite growth, JPMorgan analysts caution that stablecoin market size may not reach $1 trillion by 2028, projecting a more moderate expansion to $500-600 billion. The sector continues to evolve, driven by regulatory clarity and institutional adoption, embedding RWA deeper into global payment and asset management systems.

The Catfish Effect? Stablecoins Are Truly the Enemy of Bank Deposits

The article challenges the prevailing narrative that stablecoins pose an existential threat to the traditional banking system by causing massive deposit outflows. Instead, it argues that stablecoins act as a competitive catalyst, forcing banks to improve efficiency and offer higher deposit rates, rather than replacing them. Key points include: - Research indicates no significant correlation between stablecoin growth and bank deposit outflows, highlighting the "sticky" nature of deposits due to the convenience of bundled banking services (e.g., mortgages, payroll). - Stablecoins introduce competition, compelling banks to enhance operational efficiency and customer benefits, ultimately expanding financial intermediation and consumer welfare. - Regulatory frameworks like the GENIUS法案 (likely referring to U.S. stablecoin legislation) mitigate risks by mandating full reserves (cash, short-term Treasuries) and enforceable redemption rights, addressing concerns about run and liquidity risks. - Stablecoins offer efficiency gains through atomic settlements, enabling instant, cross-border transactions without intermediary delays, which could modernize outdated financial infrastructure. - The U.S. is urged to lead in stablecoin innovation to preserve the dollar’s global dominance, transforming stablecoins from offshore novelties into transparent, regulated components of domestic financial systems. The conclusion emphasizes that banks should view stablecoins as an opportunity to evolve, similar to other industries disrupted by technology, rather than as a threat.

Dialogue with Christian, a Post-00s Fintech Entrepreneur: Craving Iteration Speed and Mutual Candor, Financial Mindset Matters More Than Choices, 'Young People Should Have Awe'

Amid a challenging 2025, Christian, the 00-year-old founder of fintech startup Infini, reflects on a year marked by a major security breach and a strategic pivot. The company shifted from consumer-focused crypto services to B2B financial infrastructure, emphasizing payment solutions and stablecoin integration. Christian stresses that the core value in fintech isn't just efficiency but trust, earned through rapid iteration, transparent service, and 24/7 responsiveness. He believes financial products should empower users with financial literacy and risk awareness, rather than just offering investment options. Infini’s new direction focuses on building a "financial OS" to help global entrepreneurs—especially solo developers and small teams—receive payments and manage capital easily, reducing dependency on traditional banking. Christian also shares management insights: prioritize speed, curiosity, and radical honesty within teams. He admires Revolut’s execution speed and high standards, and draws inspiration from historical leaders like Emperor Taizong of Tang for their strategic decisiveness and ability to integrate talented but strong-willed individuals. Despite a tough year, he views these challenges as crucial lessons in resilience, team alignment, and maintaining long-term vision.

Digital Wallets Surge, While Regulators Play Catch-Up'

Digital wallets are rapidly evolving beyond simple payment tools to encompass lending, investments, crypto assets, digital IDs, and virtual cards, while regulators struggle to keep pace with outdated rules. In the U.S., PayPal (32%), Cash App (25%), and Apple Pay (20%) lead the market, with 77% of adults using at least one major wallet. The CFPB attempted to impose stricter oversight on large non-bank payment providers like Google, Apple, and PayPal through a 2023 proposal, but it was overturned by Congress and President Trump in 2025. Despite this, digital wallets remain subject to a complex web of state and federal regulations, including money transmission licensing, Reg E, UDAAP rules, and FinCEN requirements. Experts warn that inconsistent enforcement and expanding wallet functionalities create compliance challenges, and a loss of consumer trust could trigger renewed regulatory pressure. Key issues include unclear user protections, reliance on banking partners, and potential state-level enforcement if federal oversight weakens.
