Mippo 🟪(@MikeIppolito_):I don't think people appreciate how much payments suck in the US. People often say stablecoins make sense for people ex-US because it's so good here, but I don't agree with that. It's actually better almost everywhere else. Payments take forever, are expensive, and are insanely complicated. It's kind of wild being a US citizen and going almost anywhere else. Seriously everywhere, from South America to the UK. Stablecoins make sense here, I promise you. It's why the banking lobby hates them so much.
