I love your product and looks very slick!

Can I play devil's advocate though?

Don't you think in 1-2 years most banks (NA + EU) will offer 1:1 stablecoin conversions and make this no longer a problem?

Re:Hacker mints $80M USD worth of USR stablecoins on Tuesday March 24, 2026 @04:59AM (#47500087)
first step is to turn them into real crypo like ETH (so its unfreezable)

then probably mix them via different methods

then sell them via OTC-style swap platforms like fixedfloat / changelly etc

Re:Hacker mints $80M USD worth of USR stablecoins on Tuesday March 24, 2026 @04:56AM (#47500073)

Decentralized > the transfer of authority, decision-making, or operational functions away from a central authority to smaller, local, or distributed nodes, systems, or entities

DAI is decentralized and stable

USR is not unbacked. You have a severe misunderstanding of the whole situation if you say that.

Unfortuantely Empire of AI is incredibly sour and pessimistic, choosing to present only one side of the story. I would def read it, but with a grain of salt.

Re:Cloudflare Introduces Net Dollar on Friday September 26, 2025 @06:39AM (#45384942)
Basically they will become the toll-lords of the internet. And because of that, THEY can choose what they accept as payment. A stablecoin (probably just run by them but technology coming from one of the stablecoin providers like Paxos) is perfect for this, as it will be regulated and akin to a digital dollar, with the addition that they can earn yield on treasury bills at the same time.

Pretty smart.
