Who Moved the Bank's Cheese? Debunking the Five Myths of Stablecoins 'Sucking Blood' from the Banking Industry

Stablecoins do not harm the banking system; instead, they may increase U.S. bank deposits by boosting global dollar demand, as most demand comes from overseas. They also promote competition, which could pressure bank profits but not necessarily reduce credit availability. Banks, currently highly profitable, can compete by offering higher deposit rates or using excess reserves. Moreover, banks provide only about 20% of U.S. credit, with non-bank lenders likely benefiting from stablecoin-driven efficiency and lower government borrowing costs. Concerns about community banks are misplaced, as large global banks are more exposed to payment competition. Finally, allowing stablecoin yield sharing benefits savers, and restricting it unfairly subsidizes borrowers at the expense of ordinary Americans. The claims against stablecoins are largely unsubstantiated, and the industry needs clear regulation to advance.
