stablecoins are not the next crypto whatever, they are the next visa/mastercard

A doodler and computerer. I like permissive/permissionless open source, smart contracts, p2p systems, room-scale VR, and NixOS.

stablecoins are to email what visa/mastercard is to facebook/wechat.

the fact you can ship products on stablecoin rails without asking permission is a big upgrade & will unlock lots of interesting experiments.

Daimo Pay. Build once, distribute everywhere

permissionless core ends up being user freedom enhancing *even if they are using a custodial app*.

look at Gmail, for example. the "physics" of open SMTP force better behavior. Telegram kicks apps off its platform; Gmail will not realistically kick off Substack bc users have freedom of exit.
