The stable coins are mostly pegged against the US dollar which strengthens its position globally. Users in emerging markets currently use stablecoins as a store of value since the local currencies are weaker. This is a worrying trend:

• More dollarization of economies 
• Weakened performance of local monetary policy 
• Easier movement of capital outside regulatory systems 

Meanwhile, part of the stability coins is not subject to conventional compliance rules. This poses a problem in the enforcement of anti-money laundering and financial supervision.
