💸 Stablecoins vs CBDCs

Digital money is splitting into two tracks: market-driven stablecoins like USDt on TON, and state-issued CBDCs.

Stablecoins live on public blockchains and are already moving value through trading, DeFi, remittances, and payments.

CBDCs run on permissioned rails with central banks controlling issuance and data.

Regulation, reserves, and privacy trade-offs will decide how far each model can go.

How these choices play out will shape which form of digital money powers everyday payments and cross-border flows.

🏛 STON.fi Launches TON's First Fully On-Chain DAO

Governance on TON just leveled up.

STON.fi has introduced a DAO where every proposal, vote, and outcome lives on-chain — no off-chain tools, no centralized overrides.

How it works:

1️⃣ Stake STON tokens 
2️⃣ Receive ARKENSTON (non-transferable voting power) 
3️⃣ Propose and vote on protocol changes

Longer lock periods and higher stakes mean more influence.

Before launch, the community already submitted 115+ proposals during the testing phase.

Whether you're a builder looking to push integrations or a user who wants a say in how the protocol evolves, governance is now open.
