As stablecoins reshape the landscape of digital money, regulators face tough questions about risk, resilience, and the role of central banks. In this episode, we dive into the Bank for International Settlements' landmark analysis of stablecoins — their potential use cases, regulatory gaps, and the tension between innovation and oversight.

You’ll learn:

  • Why stablecoins differ from traditional crypto-assets and e-money

  • The systemic risks posed by “global stablecoins” like Libra (Diem)

  • The concept of “embedded supervision” and how it could reshape compliance

  • The role of CBDCs and fast payment systems as public-sector alternatives

  • Policy recommendations from the BIS for taming private digital currencies

If you're watching the collision of fintech, crypto, and central banking — this episode offers deep insights into the regulatory frameworks that may define the next era of finance.
