Do you think crypto will ever become a true everyday payment tool in developed markets, or is its real value always going to be in bypassing traditional financial systems?

USDT didn’t beat the banks. It simply bypassed them.
And that’s exactly why $USDT shows where crypto truly works — not in flashy marketing, but in real financial infrastructure.
🧠 1. Crypto as Financial Infrastructure, Not Consumer Currency
Most of $USDT’s volume has nothing to do with buying coffee or shopping online.
In 2025:
• $USDT is the heartbeat of major CEXs and DEXs • It dominates both spot trading and derivatives • It serves as collateral for futures and perpetual contracts
Over 70% of stablecoin volume comes from algorithmic trading, market makers, and high-frequency strategies.
➡️ This is professional crypto at scale. $USDT is “digital cash” for the markets, not your everyday wallet. П
☕ Why Aren’t We Paying for Coffee with USDT?
The truth is harsh:
• Card payments in developed markets are fast, cheap, and convenient • Regulations make crypto payments a headache for businesses • Other crypto assets are too volatile for casual use
➡️ Where the system works, there’s no urgent need for crypto.
