Yeah, I’ve been wondering about that too! If stricter regulations hit stablecoins, it seems like DeFi platforms might face a real challenge since they depend so heavily on coins like USDC and USDT for liquidity pools and lending protocols. I imagine that if these coins become harder to use due to compliance rules, liquidity could dry up fast on some platforms. That could push users toward more decentralized options, like algorithmic stablecoins—though, after what happened with Terra’s UST, people might be hesitant to trust them again.
I think DeFi might have to adapt by using compliant stablecoins or find ways to work around the regulations while staying transparent. Some projects are already focusing on self-regulation and building more trust, so that might help keep them afloat. But the big question is—will the new rules make DeFi less attractive, or could it evolve and come out stronger by complying with these regulations?
Curious to hear if anyone has seen new algorithmic stablecoin projects that look promising, or if DeFi is already shifting to regulation-friendly solutions!
