2023-8-24 12:30

The age of digital currencies and blockchain technology is upon us, with an increasing number of institutions advocating for their widespread adoption. At the forefront of this conversation is Paxos Trust Company, the New York-based stablecoin titan.

In a recent announcement, the firm strongly contended that blockchain technology could fundamentally reshape the global remittance landscape, streamlining the flow of funds and bolstering economies worldwide.

Blockchain-powered remittance platforms are aiming to transform this industry with security and transparency, cost efficiency and speed and accessibility.

Blockchain’s Contribution To Economic Stabilization

Global remittances, which denote payments made by individuals or entities overseas back to their native countries, significantly influence the monetary influx of many economies. These remittances are paramount, often dictating the economic health of various nations.

But how does blockchain fit into this intricate picture? According to Paxos, the answer lies in its features: efficiency, security, and transparency offered by the technology. 

Delving deeper into the essence of global remittances, Paxos detailed in the report that these transactions don’t merely signify financial transfers.

Paxos noted that they play a crucial role in poverty alleviation and economic consumption, acting as reliable income sources for recipients. By ensuring consistent availability of funds for necessities such as food, housing, education, and healthcare, remittances effectively spur economic growth.

Furthermore, the stabilization and resilience of an economy are directly influenced by these remittances. During turbulent times marked by economic upheaval or natural calamities, remittances emerge as consistent income streams, reinforcing economic stability.

Blockchain Features Are In Play

Traditional banking systems are often marred by delays, especially in cross-border transactions. Blockchain, as Paxos emphasized, could reshape this sector by enabling almost instant international transfers. Such efficiency proves invaluable for recipients who need immediate access to funds, particularly during emergencies.

The New York-based stablecoin titan noted:

Blockchain enables near-instantaneous cross-border transactions, bypassing the delays associated with traditional banking systems. This speed is particularly advantageous for recipients who urgently need the funds for immediate expenses.

In addition, Blockchain’s decentralized nature paves the way for heightened security and transparency, virtues not always guaranteed in the traditional remittance realm.

By sidestepping intermediaries typically associated with conventional remittances, blockchain ensures rapid transactions paired with diminished fees and overhead costs, according to Paxos.

It is worth noting that Paxos has proven its mettle in the cryptocurrency sphere, particularly as the issuer of Binance’s BUSD stablecoin. The company has also been announced to be the issuer behind PayPal’s recently launched stablecoin, PYUSD.

Berkeley Professor Questions Stablecoin Viability in Unflattering Op-Ed

University of Berkeley Professor Barry Eichengreen has taken a swipe at the viability of stablecoins in an op-ed published on Project Syndicate. The critique, entitled “The Stable-Coin Myth,” argues stablecoins are not automatically "viable" just because they are pegged to an asset, though Eichengreen does believe they have an advantage over "conventional cryptocurrencies" such as bitcoin which he says "is highly unstable" and "unattractive as units of account.
