Monetary Forces V with Noelle & Izabella

Stablecoins, dollarization, money laundering, PayPal and more

In today’s episode (the last of the series!), Noelle Acheson and Izabella Kaminska discuss:

  • will Stripe’s bid for PayPal cast light on their opaque financial structure?

  • how a recent OFAC update and a recent FATF update overlap

  • how stablecoins can facilitate crime, but they can do a better job of mapping crime networks than traditional finance

  • how stablecoins lead to dollarization of developing economies - will we see pushback?

  • here’s the BIS paper that Izabella talked about: Dollarisation and monetary control: what lessons for the rise of stablecoins?

(I have no idea why the video format is in vertical when the stream was set for landscape - Substack are looking into this for me. If you’d rather see it in landscape, and I know I would, Izabella has the correct format uploaded to her blog The Blind Spot.)
