#7: Stablecoins, CBDCs and the evolution of Defi

The Crypto Explorer - by Sygnum Bank AG

What are stable coins? and why does an ecosystem so determined to achieve decentralisation still rely on them? In conversation with Nadia Alvarez from Maker Dao, and Nestor Palao from Sygnum Bank we dive into the role of stable coins in def and how the market is evolving, particularly with the rise of CBDCs and governments experimenting with crypto.

1. What is the role of stable coins in the crypto market, particularly in defi-lending?
2. How does a DAO-driven stable coin differ from other more centralized players in the sector?
3. How does a decentralized coin that is independent survive against the upcoming CBDCs?
4. Do stable coins offer a potential solution for markets where the economies are less stable?
