Fair take, but the 1:1 peg isn’t really the whole story.
For many users, USDC is about fast global settlement and on-chain utility, not just holding digital dollars.

Curious, do you see stablecoins having a long-term role in payments?

Fair point, but Bitcoin has never depended on any one president.
Market cycles, macro liquidity, and institutional adoption usually drive the bigger moves.

Curiously do you think policy sentiment still meaningfully moves crypto in the short term?

Respectfully, not all AI or crypto projects are the same.
Used properly, AI trading is simply automation + risk management. The real issue has always been misuse and lack of transparency.

That said, do you think the problem is the tech itself… or the people misusing it? Curious to hear your view.
