A Comprehensive Approach to Cryptocurrency and Stablecoin Policy Analysis

Gavin I. Persaud

Abstract

This paper proposes a multi-layered research methodology for comprehensive cryptocurrency and stablecoin policy analysis. The approach combines systematic literature review with comprehensive analysis of regulatory frameworks and forward-looking assessment of emerging trends and research gaps. The methodology addresses three key clusters: stability, volatility, and design; crypto market interrelations; and macroeconomic and regulatory linkages. The paper identifies critical research gaps including stablecoin use in emerging markets, effects on currency stability, algorithmic stablecoin analysis, and non-crypto use cases.
