Key Topics of Discussion

The core of this discussion revolves around the fundamental objectives that Satoshi Nakamoto aimed to accomplish with Bitcoin. He envisioned a system where peer-to-peer (P2P) electronic currency could facilitate safe transactions directly between individuals without relying on centralized authorities such as banks.

Despite Bitcoin's revolutionary concept, its high volatility and speculative nature have hindered its acceptance as a mainstream payment method. Enter stablecoins - a developed answer to the price fluctuation dilemma that Bitcoin presents.

This seminar will delve deeply into the critical distinctions between Bitcoin and stablecoins, providing a thorough understanding of their mechanisms, potential regulatory challenges, and the risks associated with the pegs (e.g., the $1 peg collapse risk).

Key Points Covered:

1. Understanding Cryptocurrencies: What exactly are cryptocurrencies, and why does stability pose a challenge?

2. Defining Stablecoins: An explanation of what stablecoins are, including their backing assets and the pegging systems with fiat currencies.

3. Global Regulatory Trends: A look into how jurisdictions like Japan, the U.S., and the EU are shaping regulations around stablecoins.

4. Business Transformation via Stablecoins: Exploration of how stablecoins are set to revolutionize business practices, particularly in money transfers, payment systems, and their role in decentralized finance (DeFi).

5. The Future Landscape of Finance: An analysis of how stablecoins may define the next wave of digital money strategies, harmonizing traditional finance with next-gen financial structures.

6. Q&A Session: A great opportunity for participants to clarify doubts and exchange business cards, enhancing networking among like-minded individuals.
