AI + Stablecoins: The Two Trends Credit Unions Can’t Ignore

In this episode of The Fintech Combine, host Kris Kovacs sits down with Dr. Lamont Black of Wide Open Ventures to break down what’s next for credit unions as AI and stablecoins move from hype to real strategy. They unpack the impact of the Genius Act, why stablecoins are becoming a mainstream payments rail, and what credit unions should do now to prepare—without jumping into tech for tech’s sake. Dr. Black also shares how leaders can approach AI adoption as organizational change, what “agentic AI” means for the future of member relationships, and why being a “fast follower” can quietly turn into doing nothing.
