Increased adoption of stablecoins is predicted to boost demand for US dollars and treasuries, as stablecoins are backed by short-term US treasuries.
"See, when the US inflates the dollar, the economy starts to feel the pain right away... But stable coins, they change that equation because stable coins park reserves in short-term US treasuries. So, the demand for dollars and treasuries can actually go up as adoption grows, making the whole thing kind of self-reinforcing."
Stablecoin Demand and US Treasuries

Growing adoption of stablecoins, which park reserves in US treasuries, is predicted to increase demand for both dollars and US treasuries, creating a self-reinforcing cycle.

Stablecoin Impact on US Treasury Demand
Correct
Inflation used by the US to devalue its debt will be a 'shared tax' on stablecoin holders globally, as their digital dollars lose purchasing power.
"So if the US devalues its debt through inflation, the burden doesn't just hit American citizens, it gets exported worldwide through the stable coin system. So inflation then becomes kind of a shared tax that stable coin holders everywhere are forced to pay because their digital dollars also lose purchasing power at the same"

Correct
Usage of stablecoins like USDT and USDC globally will indirectly fund US debt as users hold IOUs backed by US treasuries, without directly purchasing them.
"Every time someone uses USDT or USDC throughout the rest of the world, they're basically holding a digital IOU backed by US treasuries. That means they are indirectly helping fund America's debt without actually buying US treasuries."
