Stablecoins Cement Place as Financial Infrastructure
Stablecoins have transitioned from a niche to a core component of financial services in recent years. According to Nik Milanović, founder and CEO of Stablecon, this shift is due to their growing transaction volume and increasing adoption by traditional finance players.
The numbers are indeed impressive: around $1 billion annually in transactions. However, the lack of a dedicated conference space for stablecoin discussions between traditional finance and crypto-native stakeholders prompted Milanović to launch Stablecon.
Since its inception, Stablecon has brought together over 1,000 operators, payments leaders, bankers, investors, and stablecoin founders. The upcoming conference is expected to be twice the size of last year's event, with a focus on international expansion.
