Since this is adjacent to crypto, I came in here expecting some kind of hateful things being said about it, but seems like a fairly productive and honest discussion, something that is usually lost as soon as the c-word is mentioned.

Despite all of the issues that are within the crypto world, I do think stablecoins are a fantastic use-case that most of us should be able to get behind to break this duopoly. With some oversight/proofs of solvency for the issuers, I hope they can become the dominant payment method. I can say from experience, the fact that I can easily pay friends and also receive yield on my holdings is such a nice experience, especially considering the inflationary environment we're in currently.
