Founding edition · 5 to 10 October

The dollar went digital. Your money didn't.

A week every year · 52 chapters · what happens during it

Over 99% of every stablecoin on earth is a claim on the US dollar. Stablemove is how the rest of the world's money starts catching up.

Each one is a smaller slice of the one before it. The last number is ours, not the industry's. Separately, 52 countries already have a chapter going.

The board

Only 31 of 155 currencies have a stablecoin. Here they are.

Green ones trade against another currency on our book. Purple ones have a stablecoin in circulation. Pink ones are the ones people keep asking for. Hover or tap a coin to see its card.

The ones that are asleep

No stablecoin in any of these yet. Pick one to see its card.

Why it matters

A tax on the people least able to pay it

The top four are about the world and each says where it came from. The four under them are ours, and we say so.

And the part that is ours to answer for

The work

Three things, in order of difficulty

01

Every country issues

A stablecoin in the money people actually get paid in and pay rent in. Not a dollar with a local name on it.

02

Every adult holds one

A wallet, savings, and money you own outright. No bank hours, no counter that shuts at five, nobody's permission.

03

Every currency connects

A token nobody will trade isn't much use. Someone has to be willing to quote it against another one at a fair price.

Why this is worth building

We started this because the money most people get paid in still cannot move the way dollars can. That is the whole idea. The table further up is us trying to be honest about how far along we are, which right now is not very far.

Most money still cannot move the way the dollar does

Over 99% of stablecoin value is a claim on the US dollar. Of the 155 currencies people earn and spend in, 129 have no stablecoin at all, good or bad.

Someone has to be willing to trade it

Issuing a local stablecoin is the easier half, and it is the half that gets written about. The harder part is having someone there willing to price it against another currency at a fair rate, both ways, on an ordinary Tuesday. That is why we put the fill sizes up rather than a list of the tokens we support. Adding a token to a list is easy enough. Having the liquidity to fill an order in it is the slow part.

A lot of what gets called local is really dollars

We went through the ones people point to, one at a time, reading each operator's own pages. Nearly all of them move a dollar stablecoin and convert to local money at the other end. That works, and it genuinely helps people. It is just not the same as holding money in what you get paid in, and that gap is the bit we are trying to close.

One thing to be clear about. This is not an offer, not a solicitation and not advice, and nothing here predicts a return on anything. It is some measurements and the method we used, put up so you can check them and so we have to sit with them on the bad months.
Chapters

Fifty-two countries, one name

Every one of these runs its own edition during the week, organised by people who live there. The lead is whoever earned it in the last thirty days.

Who is building

The people this depends on

Issuers, payment firms, wallets, exchanges and the rails under all of it. Nobody paid to be here and being listed isn't an endorsement.

Nobody is asking you to march anywhere

The whole entry price is one post.

Say which currency you live on. Bring one person in. Run a workshop for ten people. That's it, and it's enough.

The board

Find your currency.

All 155 in circulation. Green trades on our book, purple has a stablecoin, grey has nothing yet. Tap any of them to see what you can do.

155Currencies
31Have a stablecoin
124Have nothing

Open bounties

Currencies people asked for, that nothing answered

Over a forty-five day window the order book received 1,460 quote requests across 124 pairs. 776 of them found no liquidity on the other side. These are the biggest gaps. This is Sera's own quote log, not an industry statistic, and we publish it because the industry is who can close it.

What's moved

The board is checked every morning

When a currency wakes up, or a new coin turns up anywhere in the world, it shows here. This is the whole point: the number is supposed to move.

The founding count

State of Stablemove, 2026

The baseline for 2026, the first year we counted. Every year after gets measured against this, which is why we published it while the numbers were still small and a bit embarrassing.

Read the last two rows differently from the first five. The first five are about the world and cite sources outside us. The last two are about our own book and say so. Rolling those into one headline number is the thing we do not do.
Take part

Seven things you can actually do.

No marching, no lobbying. Most of this you can do from your phone this week, and every one of them earns XP at community.sera.cx.

7Ways in
2 minThe quickest one
$0What any of it costs
01

Say which currency you live on

One post, in your own language, saying which currency you live on and whether it has a stablecoin. Sounds trivial. It isn't. Every post puts a country on the map, and you can't write it without picking a side.

02

Bring one person in

Not a hundred people. One. Someone who sends money home, runs a small import business, or gets paid from abroad. They're who this is for. And honestly they'll be more convincing at a family dinner than any of us are online.

03

Write the explainer your country does not have

In most languages there's nothing readable on what a local stablecoin is, what it isn't, and where the law stands. Write 800 words. Be honest about the risks. Link your sources. There's nothing else out there in your language, so people will find it.

04

Send one real payment and publish the receipt

Send real money to a real person. Write down the corridor, what it cost, and what it replaced. Compare it to what a bank or a remittance shop would have charged. If it came out worse, say so. Verified stories go on the public wall and they do more work than any thread.

05

Run a workshop for ten people

A room, an evening, ten chairs. There's an agenda further down this page. You don't need to be an expert. You need to be about a week ahead of the room, and to say so when you don't know something.

06

Represent your chapter during the week

Every country has a chapter. During Stablemove Week yours runs its own edition under the one name. Someone has to put their name on it, book a room or a call, and write up what happened afterwards. That can be you.

07

Learn to quote a pair, then teach someone else

Nobody explains this part properly. Quoting a currency pair is a real job with real risk and real income, and it's the only thing that turns a dead token into a working corridor. Learn it, do it small, then teach someone near you.

Step one, made easy

Your card, and your post

Pick your currency. You get a card worth posting and some words you can edit to sound like you.

1080 by 1350, sized for a feed.

Step five, made easy

A workshop agenda that works with ten people and no budget

Ninety minutes. No slides needed after the first ten. The only equipment is one phone per person and somebody willing to be the example.

TimeWhat happensWhy it is in the agenda
0:00Ask the room who sends or receives money across a border, and what it cost them last time.Starts with their problem, not your topic. The numbers people say out loud are always worse than they expect.
0:15Show what a stablecoin in your own currency would be. Name the ones that exist near you.Makes it local immediately. A dollar token is an abstraction; their own currency is not.
0:30Everyone installs a wallet and receives a very small amount from you.The moment it becomes real. Keep the amount trivial so nobody is anxious.
0:50Do one live swap between two currencies and read the rate out loud against a bank's.The comparison is the argument. Do not editorialise, just read both numbers.
1:05Explain where yield comes from, and where losses come from. Both, at the same length.If you only teach the upside you have taught them to get hurt. See the yield page.
1:20Ask who wants to run the next one, and write their name down before anyone leaves.A workshop that does not produce the next organiser was a talk, not a chapter.
Say this out loud in every session. Nobody in this movement gives financial advice and neither should you. Stablecoins carry issuer risk, smart contract risk and regulatory risk. The rules differ by country and some of them are unsettled. Tell people to check where they stand locally, and never to put in money they can't lose.
Yield

How yield really works.

Where the money comes from, and how you lose it. Both, at the same length. None of this is advice.

4Ways to lose money
6Steps to run it yourself
0Yield figures we will print
Not advice. Nothing here is financial advice and nobody in this movement is licensed to give any. This page explains how something works so you can understand it and teach it. What you do with your money is on you, and you should assume you can lose it.
First, what it is not

It's not staking and it's not interest

Not a savings rate

Nobody is promising to pay you a percentage. There's no rate card. If someone shows you a fixed one for this, they're selling you something else.

Not a reward for waiting

Money parked and left alone earns nothing here. The income shows up because you're doing a job. Stop doing the job and it stops.

Not risk free

There's a specific way this loses money, described below. It's not a rare edge case. It's just the cost of doing it.

The actual mechanism

You quote a price, and you get paid for standing there

Bids on one side, asks on the other, a gap in the middle. You post both prices and leave them resting. The gap between them is the spread, and on a live corridor competition keeps it to a small fraction of one percent.

Somebody crosses your price because it beats their alternative. You now hold more of one currency and less of the other, and you have earned the difference from the middle.

The income is in the round trip, not the single fill. Buy below the middle, sell above it, repeatedly, on a pair with genuine two-way flow. One-way flow is not a business, it is an inventory problem.

Why this matters to Stablemove and not just to you. A currency with a stablecoin but nobody quoting it against another currency shows up purple on the board, not green. The only thing that turns it green is somebody deciding to quote it. That is a decision a person can make. It is the most direct contribution anyone in this movement can make to the actual mission.
Read this twice

The four ways this loses money

Teach these in the same breath as the income, every time, to everyone.

Risk one

Inventory risk

You get filled on one side and the market keeps going that way. Now you're holding the currency that's falling, in size, and the spread you earned is tiny next to the move. This is how most people lose money here. It has nothing to do with the tech.

Risk two

Being picked off

Someone knows something you don't, or just updates their prices faster than you update yours. They hit your stale quote on purpose. A quote you're not watching is an open invitation.

Risk three

The contract or the issuer

Your funds sit in a smart contract, and your position is in tokens issued by companies. Audits reduce contract risk. They don't remove it. An issuer can fail, freeze your balance, or lose its banking. Neither of these is theoretical.

Risk four

Where you live

Rules for holding and trading this stuff vary a lot by country, and some are unsettled or openly hostile. Tax treatment varies too. Check where you stand before you start, not after.

Doing it yourself

Running Earn on Sera

Sera publishes an open source bot that does the quoting for you. It only ever posts, never takes the other side of a trade, and it signs a heartbeat every six minutes so the book knows your quotes are still live. The public dashboard is at earn.sera.cx.

01

Pick a pair you understand

Start with a corridor that already has flow both ways, not the most exotic one on the board. If you don't have a feel for how that currency moves in a normal week, you're not ready to quote it.

02

Size it at what you can afford to lose entirely

Not an amount you'd be upset to lose. An amount you could lose entirely and be fine. This is the rule that keeps people around after a bad month.

03

Install the bot and connect a wallet you control

Ask Sera for the earn bot and the setup notes, and you can see what other makers are doing at earn.sera.cx. It is non custodial: it signs orders with your key and cannot move funds anywhere you have not authorised. Read the source before you run it, and do not run any trading software you have not read.

04

Set your spread and your maximum position

Tighter spread, more fills, less on each. Wider spread, more per fill, but it might sit untouched for days. The position cap is what stops a bad day turning into a disaster, so set it before you need it.

05

Watch it for a week before you scale it

Look at what actually filled, which way you ended up leaning, and whether the income covered the move against you. A week of small real numbers will teach you more than this page will.

06

Then teach one other person in your chapter

This is where it compounds. Five people in a chapter quoting the same local pair can move that currency from issued to trading. That shows up on the board and in the annual count.

We don't publish yield numbers here, on purpose. What you make depends on the pair, your spread, your sizing and the week you picked. Any number we printed would turn into a promise, and it's not one we can make. If you see a fixed percentage attached to this anywhere, treat it as a warning sign. That includes if it comes from us.

How you join

You just pick one

Open your dashboard at community.sera.cx and declare your country. One per person, changeable. If you do not pick, one is inferred from where you log in.

How the lead is decided

Thirty-day experience

Nobody appoints it. The top experience holder over a trailing thirty days holds the seat and the Flag Bearer badge, with a grace window before it changes hands.

How it changes hands

Someone outworks you

Which is the point. A seat you can't lose is just a title. A seat that changes hands is a reason for the second most active person in the country to keep showing up.

During Stablemove Week

What a chapter edition has to include

Set low on purpose, so five people in a room can clear it. Specific on purpose, so nobody can take the name and run something we wouldn't stand behind.

Required

A named organiser

One real person who puts their name to it publicly, in advance.

Required

A public listing

Posted on this site before it happens, so anyone in that country can turn up.

Required

A report back

A short write-up afterwards: who came, what happened, what you would change.

Encouraged

One local voice

Somebody from the country who is not from the community. An issuer, a journalist, a shop owner.

Chapters operate under local law. Rules on stablecoins differ a lot by country and some are unsettled. If the standard name causes a problem where you are, change the local name. And never put someone in a position they didn't choose. If you're unsure about your jurisdiction, ask before you announce, not after.
The shape of a good one

Three formats that have worked

The ten-chair evening

A borrowed room, ninety minutes, the workshop agenda from the playbook. Cheapest to run, highest conversion, produces the next organiser in the room.

No budget

The online panel

Ninety minutes, three local voices, recorded and posted. Works where distance or law makes a physical gathering awkward, and it leaves an artefact behind.

No venue

The piggyback

Attach to a fintech or developer meetup that already exists in your city and take a thirty-minute slot. Fastest route to a room full of the right people.

No audience needed
The roll

All fifty-two, and where each one's currency stands

These are the countries the community already posts from. They're the remittance-heavy, FX-squeezed places where this actually bites. Click one to jump to its currency on the board.

23 of these 52 countries have nothing circulating in their own currency. That is not a gap in the list. That is the list doing its job.

Our week

Six days, and what happens on each

The founding edition is online. No venue, no badge, nothing to fly to. Each day has one thing to do, and every one of them is already written down on this site.

5 to 10 October 2026

Mon 5 OctDay one

The count goes up

We publish the founding number: how many of the world’s 155 currencies have a stablecoin on the morning the week opens. Everything after this gets measured against that.

See the board →
Tue 6 OctDay two

Bring one person

One, not a hundred. Someone who sends money home or gets paid from abroad. They don’t have to care about crypto. They already care about the fee.

How that works →
Wed 7 OctDay three

Write the missing explainer

In most languages there is nothing readable about local stablecoins. Eight hundred words, honest about the risk, sources linked. TOKEN2049 is on in Singapore the same day, so there will be plenty to argue with.

What to cover →
Thu 8 OctDay four

Send one real payment

Real money, a real person, then publish the receipt. The corridor, what it cost, what it replaced. If it came out worse than the bank would have, say that too.

Publish a receipt →
Fri 9 OctDay five

Workshops, and yield taught properly

Ten chairs and an evening. The agenda is on the take part page. Whoever runs it also walks the room through self-running Earn, including the four ways it loses money.

Yield, no sales pitch →
Sat 10 OctDay six

Chapters close it, and we count again

Every chapter writes up what happened in its own country. We publish what moved in six days and set the date for 2027. Chapter editions carry on from the 12th.

Chapter rules →
See all seven ways in

Times are wherever you are. It runs online, so the day is your day, not ours.

Live sessions sit on top of this. Issuers are being scheduled across their own timezones, so a team in Manila is not talking at 3am. Each one gets added to the day it lands on as it is confirmed, and the calendar file picks it up next time you download it.
Every date here was checked against the organiser's own site. Nothing goes on this list because an aggregator says so. Two examples of what that costs us: Finweek Kuala Lumpur is listed as 11 to 12 November because that is what the organiser says, while an aggregator carrying it says 11 to 13. And there is no event called Malaysia Fintech Week at all, whatever you have been sent: the real one is MyFintech Week, run by Bank Negara, which has not announced an edition since August 2025. And Stablecon came off in September because it had no October 2026 edition; its 2027 dates are now confirmed, so it is back. If you run one of these and something is wrong, or you would rather not be listed, tell us and it changes the same day.
After the week

Chapter editions open once TOKEN2049 closes

National weeks run under the one name from the second week of October onward. India, Philippines, Malaysia, Japan, China and any other chapter that puts an organiser's name forward. If you want yours listed, that starts in the playbook.

What moves

Where we have actually got to.

How much each corridor can take, measured every morning against the live book. Some mornings it looks bad. It goes up either way.

0Corridors with liquidity
0Deepest fill
0Dry at any size

How much each corridor can take

Every morning we ask for a real quote at 100, then 1,000, then bigger, until the book says no. The last size that worked is what shows up below. If a corridor got thinner this week, that is what you will see.

CorridorFills up toRelative depthRate

Amounts are in whatever currency you are selling. Dry means it would not quote even at 100. Settlement runs on the Sera order book, so these depths are really its depths, and the command below asks it directly instead of going through us.

The method

How to check this yourself

The quote endpoint is public and needs no API key. Paste this in and you should get what the table got. If you get something else, the table is wrong and we would like to know.

Why show the limit. It takes about ten minutes to check, so there is not much point writing anything else. If the page said one thing and the endpoint said another, you would stop believing the rest of the page too. So the limit goes up whether or not it moved.
