Anonymous Coward User ID: 52645242 Croatia 04/21/2021 08:22 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Stablecoin?? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76531429 What a fucking lame try-hard name. "Trust us, it's not a scam. Totally stable, it's in the name after all." Do you even know what stable coin means? There are already quite few of them. Theter, paxos, usdc etc. These coins are stable in sense they are always equal to dollar. Sometimes for very brief periods losing or gaining few cents. More or less digital version of dollar. You wont get rich by holding it, but you wont lose big chunk overnight like its possible with other coins. About op and legality issue. Bitcoin needs 250k price to overtake usd as world reserve currency and it will happen during next bull run in 4-5 years ... unless you guys bring some democracy to crypto. |

Only banks can legally issue these kinds of instruments. They might even require a securities license. When you are afraid of losing your life, you have already lost your life. Don't be afraid. |

The current bitcoin system can only handle about 150 million transactions a second but the USD handles billions. China tried it and crashed after 5 seconds. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80206139 thats because btc is a and slow... has nothing to do with newer blockchains... Grove And this is why we can't have nice things. |

It will probably just be used for tips, subscriptions and transactions on Facebook marketplace. Sort of like Coil. There's already Tether and USDC being used as stablecoins in the financial world.

They will start a new ponzi scheme. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 58925551 Janet Yellin has been talking about the dangers of an unregulated crypto market. I believe FB is helping with the government narrative on currency. If the government wants a digital US $, and it does, printing money and a burgeoning crypto environment will serve their purpose. They are devaluing physical currency and will have a bigger window into every aspect of life with digital. |

Consider all the venues that require you buy a wristband or tickets or branded slugs to purchase from vendors at sponsored events. In a limited environment, it is merely contractual. SAM |
