Stablecoin Gold Rush: A $200 Trillion Opportunity | Rob Hadick

Stablecoins are no longer a niche crypto curiosity—they're a full-blown financial revolution.

In this episode, Rob Hadick, General Partner at Dragonfly, joins us to unpack the emerging stablecoin tech stack and why cross-border payments, savings, and financial infrastructure are being rebuilt from the ground up.

From Circle and Tether to next-gen orchestration layers and stablecoin-native blockchains, we explore why this $200 trillion global opportunity is only 5% unlocked—and who stands to win the most.
