A survey of Fortune 500 executives indicates that 56% of them state that their companies are working on blockchain projects.

The exchange notes that Fortune 500 executives are interested in stablecoins due to their ability to facilitate instant, cost-effective international and domestic transactions, easy conversions, reduced transaction fees, and seamless money transfers within the company. Additionally, 86% of executives express interest in tokenization as it could simplify regulatory procedures, shorten transaction times, enhance fund traceability, lead to cost savings, and boost engagement.
According to the research, 55% of Fortune 500 executives who have yet to embrace blockchain technology admit that their main reason for hesitancy is the lack of skilled personnel in this field.
