IMF boss just dropped the real talk on stablecoins:
✅ Cross-border payments? Way cheaper for large transfers
❌ The catch? Currency substitution risk in emerging markets
❌ Exchange rate chaos incoming for weaker economies
Translation: Developed markets win, emerging markets get wrecked. Classic.
This is why $USDT and $USDC dominance keeps growing while local currencies in Argentina, Turkey, Nigeria get obliterated. The dollarization via stablecoins is already happening—IMF just finally admitting it.
Watch which countries start banning stablecoins next. That's your signal their currency is cooked.
