🌍 WTO: Stablecoins are restrained by regulations, not technology
The WTO believes stablecoins have great potential in international payments & trade finance, but face a major bottleneck:
Stablecoins currently account for about 3% of international payments.
Only 39% of surveyed regions have a complete regulatory framework.
Cross-border payments using stablecoins have increased 35 times in 4 years.
Developing countries could benefit the most from reduced remittance costs but lack legal infrastructure.
While governments are still drafting laws, Mastercard & Western Union have already started testing payments with stablecoins.
Technology is ahead, the law is catching up 😆.

Wallets, exchanges, and analytics platforms will need to update to support the new format.
Solana is gradually "unlocking" more features to narrow the gap with Ethereum - while still remaining fast + cheap.
