On Monday's Backchat, we learned more about Stablecoin - a cryptocurrency that is pegged to a specific reserve asset.
The Hong Kong Monetary Authority has put in place a regulatory regime for stablecoin issuers, adding that it's likely to issue the first batch of stablecoin licences as early as next year.
What are stablecoins, and what exactly are they meant for?
