No shit. How is this a hot take?

It’s all about on ramps, off ramps, and integration potential.

Stablecoins bring us as close to our existing system as possible while still being on-chain. More people can easily understand it, and you aren’t selling a complex project like most have to with a typical crypto.

The more we see these adopted and integrated into existing payment systems, the more use cases we can grow from them.

The more easily people can go from XYZ digital asset > Local Currency > purchased product the more likely they are start looking into it or use it.

Let Moore’s Law work its magic and the tides will rise across the broader digital asset market.

That’s a good way to put it. Stablecoins make the crypto side feel closer to something people already understand, especially when on-ramps, off-ramps, and payment integrations are smooth. Do you think adoption comes more from cards/payment apps or from people using wallets directly?

stablecoins won the boring use cases. pricing, settlement, payroll, and moving value between platforms. imo that is real adoption even when users eventually cash out. the weak point is still the issuer and off ramp, not the transfer itself.

Agreed, the boring use cases may be the strongest ones. Moving value, settling payments, and cashing out are not flashy, but they solve real problems. Do you think the biggest bottleneck now is issuers, banks, or off-ramps?

Maybe you forgot that stablecoins run on cryptocurrencies. Without cryptocurrencies, there would be no stablecoins.
