Stablecoins—the future of payments?

Cryptocurrency is often surrounded by a discussion on its volatility—with major crypto assets experiencing great highs marked by even greater lows. However, as the markets continue to explore digital money, financial players have begun to embrace stablecoins.

In this series, we address what stablecoins are, the arguments for and against them, and why they are growing in popularity. We also delve into how Canada regulates these crypto assets, and what the future legal and business landscape may look like. 

Stablecoins—the future of payments?

Join Mohammed Muraj and Alex McDougall, CEO of Stablecorp, as they discuss the evolution of stablecoins, the currency's impact on traditional banking and the broader financial system, and what’s next for this technology.
