Massachusetts issued the colony's first coin in 1652. It was an audacious act that challenged who controls money. Today, stablecoins reopen the debate. Are programmable digital dollars a breakthrough? How are they being used in banking to unlock faster payments, new revenue, and sticky deposits? Or are they a quiet run on the banking system in code? As stablecoins move from crypto markets into mainstream finance, the stakes are no longer theoretical and questions abound. How are banks thinking about this and how is the ecosystem of startups coming to life to bridge TradFi and DeFi? Who guards the peg? What happens when venture-backed speed collides with market stability? And how might an agentic AI-powered financial system amplify the impact? Join us for a candid discussion with folks on the frontlines on whether stablecoins are infrastructure or disruption at monetary scale. Speakers: - Stephen Gardner, Chief Legal Officer, zerohash - Grant Butler, Partner at Reed Smith - Verina Youssef, VP of Crypto Relationship Management, First Citizens Bank (SVB) - Emmett Shipman, Fintech Strategy and Growth, Wolf & Company Hosted by Fintech Sandbox and Wolf & Co.
