Talking about the post based on the summary I got: I don’t see the use of stablecoins on the Lightning Network in a positive light either. The idea that it’s a good way to introduce people to Bitcoin doesn’t convince me. You’re not going to get people to adopt it just through the way we transact — there are fiat systems that already do the same thing for most non-technical users.

PIX in Brazil works just like LN from the end user’s perspective, and all that does is help me explain the system better to new people — not introduce them to Bitcoin itself.

For someone to truly switch from the fiat system to Bitcoin, it goes deeper than that. They need to understand that what they hold in fiat isn’t really theirs, and that it constantly deteriorates in the hands of banks and at the whim of governments. Stablecoins are part of that same game, since they’re backed by fiat reserves.
