Episode Details

The Bank for International Settlements just dropped a bombshell: stablecoins aren’t money—they’re more like ETFs, shaky in value and unreliable for withdrawals. With no direct link to central banks, their worth hinges on issuer trust, not monetary reserves. Worse, they’re accelerating dollarization in fragile economies, letting people bypass capital controls and weaken local currencies. Governments can’t easily stop this because stablecoins are borderless and self-custodial. The BIS warns: these digital tokens pose serious risks to financial stability and aren’t ready to replace real money.
