【VanEck Venture Capital Executive: The Rise of Stablecoins Makes Cryptocurrency 'On-and-Off Ramp' Companies More Attractive Acquisition Targets】According to Jincheng Finance, Juan Lopez, managing partner of VanEck Ventures, stated that this year, with the booming development of stablecoins, companies that connect digital assets and traditional payment systems are becoming more appealing. In a recent interview, he mentioned that as companies continue to explore new application scenarios for tokens pegged to the dollar, those that help customers exchange between cash and cryptocurrencies are becoming one of the hottest acquisition targets. Lopez noted that while these 'on-and-off ramp' companies were primarily seen as a way to facilitate customers in easily purchasing cryptocurrencies in the past, they are now increasingly viewed as important touchpoints for enabling everyday transactions using stablecoins. 'On-and-off ramp companies were originally systems created to connect traditional payment systems with exchanges, adjacent to blockchain,' he said. 'Now, they can transform from simple 'on-and-off ramp' companies into mature payment service providers built on this entirely new infrastructure, which is much more 'sexy.'
