Stablecoins are gaining traction as a stable digital asset amidst crypto volatility. With Stripe's $1.1 billion acquisition of Bridge, stablecoins are proving their staying power. The big question is whether one stablecoin will dominate or if a multi-stablecoin ecosystem will thrive. Major players like Tether's USDT, Circle's USDC, and MakerDAO's DAI lead the market, while new entrants like PayPal's PYUSD are emerging. Stablecoins offer cheaper, faster payments and are crucial for DeFi access. The future of stablecoins could reshape financial services globally.
