Spent some time over the weekend learning about the origin of Eurodollars, which have many analogs to stablecoins today. Pretty similar story in that Eurodollars were initially ignored as a niche market, then seen as a threat when the market grew 50x in 10 years, then ultimately seen as a tool for US foreign policy.

I remember this history lesson being shared in slack when I interned at Circle around the time USDC was coming together Great parallels Feels like its inevitable embrace comes from increased $ surface area enabled by stablecoins Likely less specific then the eurodollars but definitely rhymes
