Podcast Ep. 732 - Stablecoins, Tokenization & AI Payments: What Comes Next for Crypto
In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, Ryne Saxe, co-founder and CEO of Eco, explains how Eco is building infrastructure to move stablecoins at scale across chains, markets, issuers, DeFi protocols, and off-chain liquidity venues. He breaks down why stablecoins have moved from a future promise to a present reality, especially after the Genius Act helped give institutions more confidence around issuance and usage.
The conversation covers stablecoin orchestration, cross-chain liquidity, tokenization, RWAs, on-chain FX, agentic payments, and why stablecoins may unlock entirely new money movement use cases beyond traditional payments. Ryne argues that the stablecoin train has already left the station and that adoption will keep accelerating over the next decade, with or without the Clarity Act.
