 stablecoins may strengthen demand for USD as Paul Ryan said, but they do so at the expense of your ability to control capital flows

just sayin… 
 Exactly! What we just want to escape. 
 I’m pro cbdc. How are the lizard people like Paul Ryan going to buy their seed oil fried crickets? 
 i’m not sure they actually care about that 
 historically that’s been the narrative, but boosting demand for treasuries is probably more urgent these days 
 Tho they can still lean on Tether to prohibit certain transactions and addresses, as they have already started to do 
 i’m interested to learn more about this type of censorship. can you share specific examples I can read about? 
 Stuff like this, tho I believe there have been stories covered on RHR as well https://blockworks.co/news/tether-assumes-sanctions-compliance-ofac
