Stablecoins could strengthen U.S. dollar's global financial dominance, research suggests

New research presented at the Jackson Hole symposium suggests that financial innovations like stablecoins could paradoxically strengthen the U.S. dollar's dominance in global finance. The study posits that making currencies easier to access and transact with digitally could intensify existing network effects, leading to increased demand for dollar-denominated assets and deeper dollar markets. While this could enhance the dollar's financial clout, it also exposes other countries more significantly to U.S. policy spillovers and potentially concentrates risk in U.S. Treasury markets. AI
