The end of the US dollar seigniorage and the stablecoin super cycle

The 2008 financial crisis gave birth to the earliest believers in Bitcoin. The "suicide" of the legal currency system in 2025 will also promote the growth of stablecoins on the chain, especially non-USD, non-full reserve interest-bearing stablecoins (YBS, Yield-Bearing Stablecoins). However, non-full-reserve stablecoins are still theoretically envisioned, and the aftermath of the Luna-UST collapse in 2022 is still lingering. However, driven by capital efficiency, partial-reserve stablecoins will definitely become the mainstream of the market. Non-US dollar stablecoins are still in the experimental stage, and the global currency status of the US dollar is still widely recognized. In order to maintain industrial production capacity and employment, the RMB will not actively internationalize on a large scale, and replacing the US dollar will be a very long process.

Ethereum's Midlife Crisis: Why Token Inflation Persists Despite Burning $7.3 Billion

Since Ethereum transitioned from PoW to PoS, it introduced a burn mechanism through EIP-1559 to achieve deflationary goals. However, by 2025, its supply is still increasing, with an annual growth rate of 0.805%. Despite a significant amount of ETH being burned, the issuance still exceeds the amount burned. Influencing factors include network activity, transaction fees, technical upgrades, and market competition. The challenges Ethereum faces include the conflict between technical ideals and business realities, the decreasing appeal of the staking mechanism, and pressure from the regulatory environment. Future development will need to balance efficiency, fairness, and regulation.
