China has decided to launch a comprehensive research project to clearly identify the risks in the stablecoin sector. The initiative focuses heavily on regulatory frameworks beyond its borders. This research is crucial for determining stablecoins’ place in the global ecosystem and enabling financial integration.
On September 7, 2025, the China National Natural Science Foundation decided to examine stablecoin risk management and issues arising from international regulatory cooperation. It also announced an Emergency Management Project to carry out the necessary research. The purpose of this initiative is to address growing concerns about the ethical implications of stablecoins on global finance. It also takes into account the current regulatory challenges that do not have a rapid impact on the markets.
China Takes the Lead in Stablecoin Regulation
There has been no response to this move by China in the cryptocurrency sector from key government officials or prominent figures in the industry. However, stablecoin regulation is among the issues receiving significant attention globally.
According to the official announcement by the NSFC, stablecoins—a form of digital asset designed to be pegged to the value of fiat currency or an asset—have significant cross-border liquidity potential. They serve as important bridges connecting the traditional crypto and financial worlds. Accordingly, stablecoins pose a major challenge for the regulatory framework of international monetary systems.
The Impact of Stablecoins on Global Financial Systems
Stablecoins have become the focus of serious debate in terms of cross-border money transfers and other monetary policies. According to Coincu research, regulatory clarity could further strengthen the integration process of stablecoins into financial systems. Looking at the historical process, it has been emphasized that coordinated regulations could reduce risks. At the same time, it has been highlighted that technological developments could also make this adoption process easier.
