Inside Frax's Vision for Institutional Stablecoins with Sam Kazemian

The stablecoin landscape is evolving as DeFi and traditional finance continue to merge.

Today we chat with Sam Kazemian from Frax to break down what's happening in the space. We'll dive into their new FRX USD launch and explore an interesting idea: using stablecoins to bridge the gap between crypto and U.S. treasuries.

Sam also walks us through how Frax is rethinking stablecoin design to make yield more accessible, while partnering with big players like BlackRock and SuperState. Sam also shares insights on stablecoins' potential to reshape the broader financial system beyond just crypto.

If you’ve been thinking about where stablecoins are headed, this is one to tune into.
