Eh, there are reasons to be worried about stablecoins but this isn’t one of them. Like, all the stablecoin regimes make it illegal to do this

I think he's just missing out the interim stage where they lobby for deregulation. Although if a stablecoin can't cover its operating expenses from its interest income (something which did happen to a lot of MMFs) it's not clear what mechanism there is to gracefully wind up.

Well, sure. But the immediate concern is the fact that the SEC has blessed liquid staking as a non-securities transaction. Which probs blows a huge loophole open for getting yield on stablecoin ls

Why would you do liquid staking when you can just hold it on Coinbase and get "rewards"?
