Paperback. Stablecoins have emerged as a significant innovation in the digital finance landscape, bridging the stability of traditional currencies and the efficiency of blockchain-based transactions. Designed to maintain a stable value through asset backing, algorithmic mechanisms, or hybrid models, stablecoins may improve payment systems, cross-border transfers, and financial inclusion. However, their growing adoption also raises concerns on liquidity, reserve management, operational resilience, market integrity, and systemic financial risk. Effective governance frameworks, including regulatory oversight, risk management practices, and accountability mechanisms, maintain user confidence and monetary stability. As stablecoins increase in usage, understanding their design principles, associated risks, and governance structures may ensure their safe integration into the global financial system. Design, Risk, and Governance of Stablecoins as Monetary Instruments provides a systematic and accessible analysis of how stablecoins are designed, how they operate in practice, the risks they pose, and the governance and regulatory frameworks that shape their use. This book explores how stablecoins interact with existing financial systems, payment infrastructures, and monetary policy frameworks. Covering topics such as auditing, cryptocurrency, and financial systems, this book is a valuable resource for engineers, investors, entrepreneurs, policymakers, researchers, and scientists. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

She serves as Researcher and Op-Ed Editor at CCN.com, where she leads opinion strategy, commissions expert commentary, and produces in-depth analysis on digital finance, blockchain innovation, and global policy.

Aleksandra Shilina is a researcher working at the intersection of decentralized science, artificial intelligence, and blockchain governance. She serves as Managing Partner and Chief Research Officer at Paradigm Research Institute and is a co-founding member of Humanode crypto-biometric network. Her work examines how cryptoeconomic incentives, identity primitives, and autonomous agents can reshape scientific coordination--moving from institutional trust toward protocol-level verifiability.

Sasha holds a Ph.D. from Moscow State University.
