Too Long; Didn't Read
Bitcoin was designed to be a 'safe haven' for investors against the type of financial crash we saw in 2007/2008 and, with appalling (and predictable) inevitability, we are seeing again now. We now urgently need technology and digital assets that won't simply be a rinse and repeat of the last ten years; if not, financial "stability" will continue to be measured in the time it takes the (now demonstrably) fragile mainstream economy to cycle from boom to bust. Stablecoins are fringe products: they function to create connections between the legacy world and blockchain.
