Anybody actually use stablecoins for day to day stuff?

Not talking about trading parking. I mean regular-person use cases. Sending family money, paying friends back, moving value between countries, anything like that.

I'm curious because stablecoins sound super practical in theory, but most people I know still just use banks and payment apps.

Stablecoins are most useful where the alternative system is slow, expensive, or unreliable.

For normie local life? Banks still win on convenience where I live.

I have cousins abroad who use them for family transfers sometimes. Works, but only because both sides already know the drill.

It's one of those things that's very context dependent

The user experience cliff is real. One person sees cheap transfer, the other sees network selection nightmare.
