It is estimated there is $4tr in locked up capital at any one point, for moving money across borders. At Zero Hash Connect, ⚡️Thales Freitas, CEO of Bitso Brasil, spoke about two factors that make stablecoins a more attractive payment rail for cross-border payments, including: 1. Cost of capital. The cost of having to pre-fund an account for cross-border payments results in capital inefficiencies. 2. Cost of spread and fees. Thales outlines that the average cost for FX for retail customers in Brazil is 6.3%.

Our Founder and CEO, Edward Woodford shared why there is growing demand for stablecoins as a transfer of value and as a store of value, during his guest appearance “On the brink with castle island” podcast by Castle Island Ventures. Edward explains how these are two distinctive audiences, but ultimately stablecoins enable real-world use cases and utility for both: (A) Transfer of value as an “Alternative Payment Mechanism” including: Leveraging stables as an on and off-ramp for tokenized money market funds Harnessing stablecoin payment rails to move money faster, cheaper and more secure. For example, 5% of remittances between the US and Mexico payment corridor are now powered by crypto and stablecoins.
