ME News, April 27 (UTC+8): Neira, an architect of Tempo’s tokenized finance products, said in a post that the macro-financial significance of payment stablecoins is not in the software layer, but in the ultimate destination of the reserve assets: if they flow into bank deposits, they restructure the banking system; if they flow into short-term government bonds, they lower short-end yields (BIS data: each unit of net inflow reduces the 3-month government bond yield by 2.5 to 3.5 basis points). If held at the central bank, it is close to “narrow bank money.” At the cross-border payments layer, stablecoins are essentially a currency conversion business; the key bottleneck is the counterparty’s pre-credited capacity at the destination, not the on-chain settlement speed. The author believes regulators should use reserve destinations and net issuance volume as core monitoring indicators, not market capitalization. (Source: Foresight News)
