We should call them digital dollars, not stablecoins.

“Stablecoin” is a term only crypto insiders use. To everyone else, it’s confusing at best and alarming at worst.

But “digital dollars”? That’s intuitive. It captures the essence of what people actually experience - dollars that move faster, settle instantly, and work globally, 24/7.

Let’s reframe the conversation. If we want broader adoption and regulatory clarity, language matters.

Digital dollars are here. Let’s start calling them what they are. And yes, this logic extends to digital euros, digital pesos, and beyond.

We should call them dollarydoos, not digital dollars.

Really not sure if the naming choice is meant as a troll 😂

but assuming you are being serious that’s def a strictly worse name than “digital dollars” or even “stablecoins.” I can’t even say it without chuckling 😂😂

Hahaha that’s a fair point. At some point “digital” will get dropped but for now in the transition could be worthwhile being more explicit.

Also I meeaannn strictly comparing names, “digital dollars” is much better than “euro dollars” so I’m all for clarity 😅

We do a little bit of trolling 

Really though I think "digital dollars" is a bit stuffy, and hearkens back to the y2k boom when "online" was the big thing. Digital this, digital that. It's clunky, and is carrying some bags full of nostalgia. 

But I will concede it does a decent job of conveying the point.
