Ruim 98% stablecoins dollargebonden: voordeel VS tot het tegendeel gebeurt

Over 98% of stablecoins are pegged to the U.S. dollar, making them increasingly central to global finance as companies like Visa and Stripe adopt them. This dominance strengthens the dollar's position as the world's reserve currency and gives Americans geopolitical advantages, while allowing people worldwide to bypass government capital controls. Some governments are developing their own digital currencies in response, but experts believe these centralized alternatives lack the flexibility and global reach to compete with dollar-backed stablecoins.
