Stablecoins should be outlawed.
How are they not already? Companies can't just make their own monies. This is already illegal.
Why isn't this being enforced? Because of the lie that shitcoiners have repeated trillions of times: that the shit they make is in any way like Bitcoin. They can be shut down. Bitcoin can't.
All Shitcoins should absolutely be shut down by law enforcement with the same ferociousness as they do bank robbery.

Indeed, Facebook's Libra/Diem was strongly prohibited by the gov, and it's a perfectly good question why Circle and Tether had better luck than Facebook.
I believe that the US gov hated Libra's peg to a basked of currencies and disliked Diem's peg to national currencies. US gov wants people around the world to use coins pegged to USD. This way the international demand for USD absorbs some of the money mass that comes out of the printer while providing some goods in services to US for free... I mean, in exchange for the newly printed dollars.

The gov might not be able to shut down Bitcoin but it's more than able to beat you up. Be careful what you wish for.
