Financial inclusion matters far more than those who've only experienced traditional banking systems realize.
Think about it: 96% of the world's population lives outside the U.S., and a massive chunk of them desperately need dollar access but can't qualify for dollar accounts through conventional banking channels. The barriers are real—geographic limitations, documentation requirements, minimum balances.
Stablecoins change the equation. They give anyone with internet access and a wallet immediate exposure to stable currencies without waiting for approval from a bank in another country. No credit checks. No bureaucratic gatekeeping. No fees stacking up just to convert local currency into something more stable.
This isn't theoretical. For people in emerging markets dealing with currency volatility or hyperinflation, stablecoin adoption has become a practical survival tool, not a speculative asset.

Stablecoins are really the savior for the poor; banks don't see us as people at all.

To be honest, this is the true value of stablecoins, not hype.

This is what Web3 should really be about, not just speculating on coins and cutting leeks.

yeah, the financial inclusion angle is real but... let me be blunt—stablecoins are only as good as their counterparty risk assumptions. seen too many projects promise frictionless access then implode when the backing crumbles. usdc/usdt work because of centralized trust (which defeats the premise tbh), but what about the 50 other stables? that's where liquidity fragmentation becomes a nightmare.

Damn, this is exactly what I've been saying all along. The traditional banking system is really outdated, but when you tell people in the country about this, they simply won't listen.
Wait, can stablecoins really save lives? Why do I still only see people speculating on them...
