2. Currently, only 26% of crypto developers are located in the United States, a percentage that has decreased by 14% over the past five years.
3. In Q1 2024, the daily trading volume of stablecoins reached a historical high of $150 billion, and 70% of executives from the world’s top 500 companies are increasingly interested in understanding the use cases of stablecoins, aiming to achieve instant transactions and cost reduction.
