Odaily Planet Daily News Ki Young Ju, founder and CEO of CryptoQuant, said in an article on the X platform that "Dark stable coins" are likely to emerge in the future. Stable coins act as a bridge between the Internet and the real world, so someone needs to manage them. So far, companies such as Tether and Circle have realized this by depositing cash reserves in banks. Apart from cracking down on money laundering activities, governments around the world have not truly intervened in stablecoins, which has led to them being used as secure asset storage locations by various groups, including miners.
But this situation is changing, and stablecoins may face strict government regulation, just like traditional banks. Those who use stablecoins for large international transfers may start looking for "dark stablecoins" that can resist censorship. There are two ways to create dark stablecoins:
1. Algorithmic stablecoins that are not controlled by the government.
2. Stablecoins issued by countries that do not review financial transactions.
USDT itself was once considered as a stable currency resistant to censorship. If Tether chooses not to comply with US government regulations under the future Trump administration, it may become a dark stable currency in the increasingly censored Internet economy.
