The Future of Stablecoins: A New Financial Era 1/ Many expect a power law for stablecoin winners, but it's more complicated than that. We're entering a multi-decade era of financial unbundling and a 'big bang' of stablecoins. Thousands will emerge, potentially leading to the first $1 trillion stablecoin and several worth $10-$100 billion within this decade. Today's dominant stablecoins represent the first generation of stablecoin architecture, akin to the first New York Times website being merely a PDF in 1996.

Currently, there are five countries worldwide with an inflation rate higher than 100%, and 23 countries exceeding 20%. The cost of sending a $200 international remittance can be as high as $8 to $34, depending on the send/receive corridor. Getting credit often depends on gray markets, resulting in unfair loans, data theft, harassment, and physical harm. The need for safe, stable money has never been more critical
