Forbes: The technology of stablecoins has matured, but compliance and localized infrastructure are the real bottlenecks for large-scale adoption
According to Forbes, although the trading volume of stablecoins has exceeded $1 trillion in the past year, most activities are still concentrated in the crypto-native space (trading, arbitrage, and inter-protocol settlement), with limited applications in everyday commercial payments. WasabiCard CEO Ray Yang pointed out that the transfer of funds is no longer the core issue; licensing, compliance, risk management, and banking capabilities are the key foundations for achieving widespread adoption.
Forbes noted that while stablecoin settlement can significantly enhance cross-border payment efficiency, each market has different compliance standards, licensing requirements, and banking relationships, making the construction of localized compliance in each market both slow and expensive, which contradicts the instant global settlement that stablecoins advocate. Currently, the stablecoin market has surpassed $320 billion, and industry discussions are shifting from whether stablecoins can replace existing networks to how they can be integrated into existing networks.
Forbes believes that the challenge of the last decade was to get funds flowing, while the challenge of this decade is to ensure that global payments operate in compliance and at scale within a fragmented regulatory environment.
