We started “Stablecoins Are Killing It” on April 25th, 2020, because stablecoins were the fastest growing segment of crypto, growing by $2.4 billion in Q1 ’20 to $8B. That 40% quarterly growth accelerated in Q2, to 46%, as stablecoins added another $3.8 billion in market cap. Driven by huge growth in DeFi, third quarter growth was 78%, as stablecoins passes $20B in market cap.

But it’s still early days for stablecoins, with some predicting that stablecoin market cap will exceed $1 trillion by 2025.

The first 19 episodes have been entertaining and packed with insight, data and context for understanding the rapidly evolving stablecoin ecosystem. During the 1st half of our shows, our featured panelists give 15 minute overview presentations. The 2nd half of our shows feature audience Q&A where we open up the audio & video for audience members to ask questions and comment, creating a vibrant environment for discussion and debate.

Our featured speakers for Episode #20:

Sid Jain & Arpit Agarwarl, Co Founders of DeFiDollar, which is an index of stablecoins that uses Defi primitives to stay near the dollar mark and subsidize the collateralization ratio.

While we just had Sid & Arpit on the show in August, since then, much progress has been made, including announcing their liquidity mining plan, and closing a round of financing from some of the leading VCs in crypto, including Parafi.

An index provides a way to diversifying crypto-dollar positions to dampen the downside if a particular stablecoin like Tether falls (partially or completely) from its peg. DeFiDollar is backed by some of the leading DeFi degens. Prior to DeFi Dollar, Sid was an Ecosystem Development & Grant Fund Manager at Matic Network

Santiago R. — Partner ar Parafi Capital, an SF-based alternative investment firm focused on blockchain and decentralized finance markets. Santiago is also an Advisor to Synthetix
