“What institutions really care about is certainty — certainty of execution, certainty of settlement.”
That line from Nick Ducoff, Head of Institutional Growth at the Solana Foundation summed up the stablecoin conversation at Breakpoint 2025.
The point wasn’t about speed. It was about trust at scale. Stablecoins only work for institutions when networks behave predictably—fees don’t spike, uptime holds, and settlement is boring.
What stood out:
✅ Performance alone isn’t enough
✅ Predictable fees matter more than peak speed
✅ Reliability is a prerequisite for scale
✅ Stablecoins are becoming the main institutional use case
It felt like a shift from “how fast can this go?” to “can this run every day without surprises?”
