The Weekly Stable (Vol. 2)

Hi stable subscribers,

🕮 Has anyone come across a great 'compendium of stablecoin knowledge'? I'm looking for something like a comprehensive guide that bank execs, regulators, consultants, fintech founders, etc. could pick up and read in order to gain a high-level understanding of the key players, product considerations, and dynamics in the space.

📢 Also, PSA: Stablecon ticket prices go up tomorrow at midnight! Grab yours while you can, and join leaders from Circle, Ripple, Revolut, Stripe, Coinbase, Visa, Zero Hash, Mesh, Bvnk, Fireblocks, and more.

Enjoy another week of stablecoin news below.
