The Bitcoin-Stablecoin Debate: Impact on Financial Inclusion in Emerging Markets
Wednesday December 11, 2024 10:00am - 10:15am EAT
STONE RIDGE STAGE

This session will explore how these technologies can coexist and complement each other, their impact on remittances, cross-border payments, and savings, and why Bitcoin remains the foundation for monetary sovereignty in the digital age.
