They typically provide access, data/identity verification, or offer functionality not traditionally associated with art-focused NFTs. Explore utility-based NFT use cases and the benefits of the Onchain NFT membership in our article: https://lnkd.in/edNumM_b P.S.

Why can’t we have nice non-dollar stablecoins? 💸 The US Dollar dominates the global economy, but it’s nowhere as visible as in the stablecoin world. Why? • 47% of stablecoin owners in emerging markets (the dominant cohort) use them specifically to access dollars, as it’s cumbersome to use non-Web3 solutions. • Such economies also see USD as a great inflation hedge. Yes, the US Dollar supply is also growing rapidly, but its inflation is nowhere close to Peso or Naira. • It’s also about the network effects and liquidity. Already established players such as USDT or USDC provide both. Other stablecoins, especially if not USD-pegged, mean high switching costs. • And lastly, as receiving salary from non-domestic clients remains one of the main use cases for stables, an “international” characteristic of USD makes it the most preferable choice. I wouldn’t expect the USD dominance in stablecoins to change anytime soon. However, there are signs of at least a slightly more diverse currency market to come in the future: • Implementing the second and final stage of MICA in Europe should provide sufficient regulatory clarity for potential digital EUR providers. • RWA infrastructure providers are already exploring local stablecoins. If, for example, Lisk manages to implement the Indonesian Rupiah on a small scale, it may serve as a great pilot use case for other projects. • The growing popularity of yield-bearing stablecoins may move issuers to markets where the returns (e.g., coming from offchain treasuries serving as collateral) are higher. Stablecoin Peso may sound a bit risky, but what about PLNs (home bias detected) or other "more developed developing" economies? 🇵🇱 Chart source: Stablecoins: The Emerging Market Story 2024 report
