On future of stablecoins: “We’ll look back in the same way that we look back at long-distance calls or the way we look back at snail mail or the way we look back at selling things in catalogues, and we’ll look back at payments and we won’t believe that we ever needed to pay to send money.” (As reported by Cointelegraph)
