PANews February 12 News, Anchorage Digital Stablecoin Business Director Sergio Mello stated that since Satoshi Nakamoto released the Bitcoin white paper in 2008, stablecoins have evolved from arbitrage tools to financial infrastructure, reflecting the resilience of financial markets. Today, stablecoins can provide performance equal to or even better than traditional instant payment systems and are accessible worldwide.
Sergio Mello delivered a keynote speech at the Consensus Hong Kong event series organized by OSL Group. He mentioned that USDGO, a compliant US dollar stablecoin issued by Anchorage Digital Bank, the first federally regulated crypto bank in the United States, with OSL Group as the brand operator, is a product of the transformation in the digital asset industry. It is specifically designed for corporate users in the Asian market. He emphasized that for a stablecoin to succeed, it must have three key elements: distribution applications, liquidity support, and ecosystem integration.
