Bo Hines, one of the most important figures in the cryptocurrency world, discussed Tether’s new strategic moves, the US regulatory framework, and the impact of stablecoins on Bitcoin in a broadcast he participated in.
Hines argued that stablecoins are not only a means of payment but also a gateway to the Bitcoin world.
Bo Hines stated that the biggest benefit stablecoins provide to the Bitcoin ecosystem is “on-ramp/off-ramp” channels. Hines said that people often take their first step into the digital asset world with stablecoins, become familiar with cross-chain transactions in the process, and then move on to mainstream assets like Bitcoin.
“Stablecoin integration is a huge boon for the ecosystem,” said Hines, adding that this would increase demand for Bitcoin.
Referring to his former crypto advisory role at the White House, Hines mentioned his work on the “Genius” and “Clarity” Acts. According to Hines, the probability of the Clarity Act, which would complete the full picture of the industry, passing is around 80-90%.
