Payments Operators Series: Stablecoin

​Stablecoins are no longer just a crypto experiment — they’re at the center of global debates on financial inclusion, digital dollar alternatives, and the future of cross-border payments. But amid growing noise, what’s real? What’s hype? And what will it take for stablecoins to see widespread consumer and enterprise adoption?

​This event brings together fintech leaders, policy experts, and builders to explore the state of stablecoins — and what needs to happen next.

​Topics include:

• ​The real vs. the speculative: Which use cases are gaining traction (e.g. remittances, B2B payments), and which are overhyped?

• ​Consumer adoption at scale: What infrastructure, protections, and design choices are needed for trust and usability beyond crypto-native users?

• ​DeFi infrastructure: What parts of decentralized finance (like liquidity protocols, bridges, or oracles) can be leveraged for compliant, scalable stablecoin use?

• ​Implications for payments operators: How should card networks, banks, and wallets respond to on-chain money movement? Are stablecoins a threat or an enabler?

• ​Policy and the GENIUS Act: How proposed U.S. legislation like the GENIUS Act (Guaranteed and Enhanced Nascent Innovation in Ubiquitous Stablecoins) could shape stablecoin issuance, reserve requirements, and federal oversight — and why it matters for builders and investors.

​Whether you’re a fintech founder eyeing stablecoin rails, a traditional payments player adapting to digital currency trends, or a policymaker tracking innovation in real-time, this event will separate signal from noise — and illuminate what’s next.
