Changpeng Zhao, founder of Binance, posted on X on November 2 2026. He argued that issuing a local stablecoin can raise demand for a nation’s own currency. Zhao said that higher demand for the currency would in turn raise interest in that country’s government bonds. He noted that the US dollar already enjoys a large advantage in this area. Zhao’s view matters because Binance is a major crypto exchange and his opinions often influence market sentiment and policy discussions about digital assets and sovereign finance.

“More countries will start to realize that issuing a local stablecoin increases demand for their currency, and in-turn their government bonds. USD have a huge lead already.”
