See: >>62092200 - stablecoins. As far as I understand, this doesn't benefit Bitcoin in any way whatsoever, other than maybe legitimizing crypto further.

I am about to ask ChatGPT, but I don't think BTC really benefits from stablecoin demand in any way other than, again, legitimizing crypto as an idea.

I am actually completely ignorant of stablecoins - looks like they transact on TRON and ETH, so they ACTUALLY need it for gas. So ETH pump and TRON to the moon?

I thought TRON was some random-ass meme-coin for the last half decade. ALGO, ICP, HBAR eating dicks again.

Bearish. If they demand BTC for payments, they'll just dump it on black markets afterwards so it doesn't really do any good for BTC.
Regulation rats will further strengthen regulations which means exchanges will freeze even more innocent users. The whole KYC shit is already unbearable as it is and it seems like things are only getting worse.

It will become impossible to withdraw.

I follow XRP pretty closely - I know people working on replacing FedWire at major banks with crypto, and literally no one mentions XRP. They say USDT is ready and proven and just push that. Not even trolling, bullying you, I just don't really understand why XRP brings to the table. Or HBAR for that matter. At least I know what the failures that are ICP or ALGO do, in detail, as in I can build on them. HBAR though? I don't get it. Same with XRP. Same with HYPE.

>>62092285
USDT - 95% sure now, had muh Gemini/GCP/Opus pull 100 articles.

They're not going to use any iou scams like stablecoins because they can be frozen by the entity issuing them.

Nope, it's just tech illiterate shitcoiners like you don't understand the difference between sending and confirming. Sending bitcoin takes a few seconds. Confirming takes longer but not an issue here obviously. The other claims are also right.

bruh why in the living fucking hell would they pick a US DOLLAR DENOMINATED STABLECOIN after they specifically said that payment can't be made in US DOLLARS.

do you even think one seconds before you talk and ask yourself if it's maybe the biggest fucking nonsense ever? It doesnt matter how many articles your AI pulls up, it's retarded! it defeats the whole purpose of not paying in dollars holy fuck.

>Pay us $1 per barrel of oil or else we'll blow up your ship
With a small enough oil tanker, wouldn't the cost of the missiles they'd be using outweigh any profit they would've made?
If you had a ship that carrying 100k barrels, I doubt any weapon powerful enough to take out the ship would cost less than $100k.
>>
>>62093048
The problem is that little oil would probably mean the value from the oil would be lower the cost of actually manning the ship.

USDT is censorable at the protocol level.
>>
>>62092417
You can't even read. Tether can literally freeze usdt on any address they want. They same holds for any other stablecoin or crap like tokenized gold. They are legally obligated to freeze balances on demand.
Go back to your chatbot girlfriend.

>>62092181
where do I buy some?
>>
>>62093048
that makes no sense. Why was the strait closed? There were no mines because Iran used it for their exports and let a few ships through. So why not just risk it? the answer is obvious.
But now that passage is supposably going to be possible with a payment, they'll suddenly risk getting droned by not paying?
>>
>>62093549
I think that's just a demand Iran has brought to the negotiating table I doubt it's gonna be real. Iran isn't the only country with territorial waters in the strait

>And that would be even more retarded
No. Payments often go through intermediaries, fresh wallets, or on-chain protocols at places like Qeshm Island.
Iran has a dedicated crypto exchange window to quickly swap incoming stables into rials, other assets, or offshore accounts before full detection.
They use Tron heavily (fast, cheap, popular for USDT) and move funds fast through layered exchanges or bridges.
Some reporting explicitly notes a preference for stablecoins over BTC for volatility reasons, but with BTC as a backup precisely because it has no freeze button. Recent updates show mixed signals: some vessels pay in yuan, others in stables, and some sources emphasize Bitcoin to avoid the off-switch.
No better realistic alternatives right now. Traditional banking is closed to them for sanctioned entities.
Barter or pure cash is slow and logistically messy for high-volume tanker tolls.
Pure decentralized stables (like DAI) lack the liquidity and easy on-ramps/off-ramps at this scale.
Their overall crypto ecosystem is already deep into stablecoins — Iran's Central Bank has historically accumulated hundreds of millions in USDT for trade and rial support. The IRGC has moved billions through similar channels for proxies and evasion. It's a known tool, even if imperfect.

Wrong, it's a big issue because of replace by fee. Monero doesn't do that and it's only 2 minutes between blocks on average and the outputs can't be sanctioned. It's a vastly superior currency.
>>
>>62096102
of course monero will validate a transaction before if it had higher fees, there is no timestamping in those schemes outside of the blocs, this board is still tech illiterate after all those years, rest of the post is as retarded

You won't get a replacement tx into the Monero mempool, it will get rejected by everyone who is running normal node software (everyone) whereas bitcoin software explicitly does the opposite. You are a retard who apparently didn't know that and you actually just have no response to the rest of the post (because you are a retard).
