According to CoinMeta, a16z crypto general partner Guy Wuollet stated in an interview on the a16z crypto official channel on October 6th that in the short term, the most clear application opportunities for blockchain are still concentrated in the financial sector. Many applications that currently have the strongest fit with the product market revolve around stablecoins and perpetual contracts. a16z focuses on payment, lending, credit, exchanges, prediction markets, derivatives, as well as the cross-fields of crypto and AI, and new types of wealth management products. Wuollet believes that the demand for stablecoins comes from both payment efficiency and the need for the US dollar in regions with high inflation and capital controls. Broadly speaking, stablecoins and blockchain are driving the digital transformation of financial systems and Wall Street, just as cloud services once drove the transformation of businesses IT.
