Stablecoins reshaping global payments
summary
Panel claims stablecoin transactions rise 300–400% while crypto exchange volume falls ~50% versus two years ago, driven by payments use not speculation. MiCA-era licensing is live for issuers (StableMint named) but the EBA pushes PSD2 treatment from March, forcing CASPs toward EMI/payment services. Real bottlenecks are off‑ramps and last‑mile spendability (remittance fees still 4–6%), plus identity/KYC gaps; companies note Circle’s payouts, Bip’s omni‑bank stack and XREMIT.IO off‑ramp models as practical building blocks.
