Saifedean Ammous, “Ep. 344. Can Stablecoins Save the Dollar?“, The Bitcoin Standard Podcast (Sept. 23, 2026)
Shownotes:
Saifedean examines whether growing stablecoin demand can reduce price inflation & help US fiscal solvency. He focuses on often-overlooked trade-offs: lost seigniorage, displaced long-term Treasury demand & bank credit, & more fragile short-term funding & rollover risk.
