“Blockchain and stablecoins can actually create dollar availability in emerging markets—which they don’t have right now. Right now in Egypt, you can’t even settle $50 million a month because the banks and the central bank don’t have dollar currency.” — Raj Brahmbhatt, Co-Founder of Zeebu While the world debates crypto regulation, emerging markets are proving why stablecoins aren’t just an option—they’re survival.
