Nathan McCauley on Anchorage Prime and Stablecoin White-Label (EP.654)

Bullish

• $STABLES— Stablecoins issued by large corporations with existing customer bases are likely to succeed, particularly those with loyal customers including both buyers and sellers. This trend could strengthen USD dominance globally.

  • “The people that are gonna win in stablecoins are the people with incredible distribution. So think any corporation, any large enterprise that has a loyal customer base, particularly a loyal customer base where you have buyers and sellers.”

  • “This is going to happen, from someone who is looking at it saying, hey. This is kind of a problem for our geopolitical strategy globally. How do we counter this?”

• $INFRA— Building crypto infrastructure during bear markets is crucial for capturing upside during bull cycles. The growth of stablecoins will benefit blockchain networks that settle these transactions.

  • “If you want to capture the upside during the bull cycle, you pretty much have to have built stuff during the bear cycle.”

  • “I think one of the second order effects is that literally the chains that are settling those stablecoins are gonna do well as well. Because they gotta settle somewhere. They gotta move somewhere.”

Bearish

• $EM— Emerging market currencies may face increased pressure due to competition from USD stablecoins, forcing central banks to improve their monetary policies.

  • “Many central bankers are going to have to get their act together and going to have to run their monetary policy better because there is a imminent threat. They're no longer granted a currency controlled monopoly within their jurisdiction.”
