greed never dies
Greed and fear go together, thats a good thing to remember because greed doesnt die but fear can put it in hiding while good opportunities pass by. They are the flip side to each other and both are equal and opposite faults that lead to losses. I dont see why we'd see anything FIAT related as a source of strength, I dont see that.
Stable coins, including tether, are very easy to destroy. For this, it is enough for states to recognize illegal the provision of their national currency with other financial assets that do not belong to this state. This is already done by the Chinese government with its yuan, including digital. If this happens, then only stable coins of states will remain in circulation.
I dont know how it'll happen but sounds quite a viable scenario, anything that rests on the goodwill of politics and large government is not something I want to be standing under when theres any upset. We haven't seen the end of volatility, I dont believe it.
