I dont think your definition of "American" matches with the rest of the world if this is "un-american" for you.

It's not that dumb. There's a market for this, if you want it or not.
And if you're going to use crypto, it's better they use a currency that's not tied to the currency of an unstable country.
Also, the EU is looking to make a digital Euro anyway, which will not be a crypto coin as you know it, but a way to take power away from VISA and Mastercard, which will save European countries for billions each year.
You dont believe it's a democracy anymore, do you? Nothing is for the people.
There's also alot of new battery tech on the way.
There will be a market for batteries at home, and they will exist with the best suitable tech for it - and it's probably not lithium.
How many years, I dont know. What will it be, and who will do it, no clue. Otherwise my stock portfolio would look better if I knew these things haha.
Yeah, just as they promised. For every fee they up the numbers. This time they are also ready to do more than hurting their wallets directly, which is much more interesting.
Otherwise Google will just treat is as a cost of doing business.
That's the thing about scientists. They dont give a fuck what country you are from.
They are so used to working with people all over the world they might be the least hateful and least racist people ever.
They just want to see the world ~~burn~~ cured.
Their governments on the other hand..
Even though it would be better for the world if everyone blocked that shit (maybe except YouTube, as it got its use cases), but they blocked it for all the wrong reasons.
They dont give a shit about well-being or standing up to big tech. They just want all ideas of an opposition to dissapear.
They are silencing free speech - at least that's the goal.
We are talking about your post about stable coins. Then we imagine how it could be done with the information you provide.
Also, the EU is making a digital Euro. Might be on the blockchain also, might not, but it's an option still.
Search for it and read about it, if you want to know more. There's some official sources.
Yeah, but we are not talking about apps.
We are talking about stable coins, which is on a blockchain. The app is not important, as the stable coins would have to integrate will alot of paying options and banks.
Which means alot of different apps.
Yeah.. That's why I said EU.
True, but only if the provider is a private company - which is batshit crazy.
If it is on the national bank to provide this service, we would actually get more transparency than today.
Money is already being printed all the time, but with stable coins on a blockchain, we would always know the circulation number.
The purpose is to boost European companies. Right now they pay between 1-3% of every single transaction.
Next, banks will also get hit. If a digital Euro exists, bank transactions will go down, meaning less transaction fees for both consumers and companies.
Then there's convinience. People will be free to transfer money across the continent, and also to friends and family without any costs (some countries have that, some dont).
VISA and MasterCard is just a very unneccesarry middle man in 2025.
Who takes the bill then? Well, the EU does, because they work for the people, and the money gained is much larger than money spent. Net positive matematics.
