#Strategy加仓BTC The stablecoin storm is reshaping the financial landscape
Recently, a topic has caused a buzz in the financial circle: if interest-bearing stablecoins fully replace traditional savings methods, they could siphon off trillions of dollars in deposits from the banking system. It sounds like science fiction, but the underlying logic is worth examining.
From market phenomena, there are indeed several transmission chains at play—
▸ Bank liquidity faces pressure. As funds begin to systematically flow into higher-yield channels, the deposit base of traditional banks will undergo structural adjustments ▸ Valuations of financial assets may come under pressure. The valuation models for bank stocks and regional financial institutions need to be re-priced ▸ Safe-haven assets regain attention. When uncertainty rises, markets tend to rotate into relatively stable assets like gold and bonds
Here is an interesting contradiction—
**Short-term perspective**: If regulators tighten restrictions on stablecoins, the entire crypto asset market may face a policy risk release period, leading to a significant increase in market volatility. Whether BTC can hold its strong psychological levels is uncertain.
**Long-term perspective**: The yield advantage of DeFi protocols is objectively real. Once the stablecoin ecosystem moves toward standardization and compliance, the capital allocation gap will become very apparent, and high-quality platforms within the ecosystem may see genuine influxes of new capital.
What’s more interesting is that participants in this process need to do two things simultaneously—
1. Prevent short-term shocks caused by exposure of financial system vulnerabilities 2. Proactively deploy in crypto financial infrastructure that aligns with future regulatory frameworks and has solid ecosystem development
What’s your view? Will the $6 trillion migration really happen, or will it be absorbed through policy adjustments? Which will ultimately dominate the market—traditional finance or decentralized finance?

60 trillion sounds impressive, but I don't think the regulatory crackdown will come so quickly; banks have already started to save themselves.
Traditional finance and DeFi won't really eat each other; in the end, it's about compromise. Hybrid is probably the way to go.
Short-term fluctuations shouldn't be too feared; crypto is just like that. When it drops, DCA, no need to overthink.

This logic sounds good, but I still think the regulatory sword will eventually fall, and 6 trillion is probably an ideal scenario.
I'm a bit worried about being cut in the short term, but there's a chance to pick up bargains in the long term.
But on the other hand, increasing BTC holdings now does have some appeal.
The transition period before normalization will be very risky, it depends on who can survive until compliance day.

60 trillion? Just hear it out; once regulation starts, everything's doomed.
To put it simply, in the short term, it's just waiting to get hit; the real opportunity is in the long term.

60 trillion siphoning sounds impressive, but how many really dare to go all in... Once regulators step in, it’s just going to blow up in the same place.

To put it simply, short-term policy risks are like a time bomb. No matter how good the long-term story sounds, we have to wait until that day to see if it holds.
---
This logical flaw is quite obvious: banking liquidity pressure ≠ funds necessarily flowing into DeFi, and there are plenty of alternative solutions in traditional finance.
---
Let's talk about compliance when the day comes. It's a bit early to discuss the valley effect now.
---
Even if DeFi’s yield advantages are obvious, the risks are real. Whether the trade is worth it depends on how long you can gamble with your bets.

The possibility of traditional finance eating into crypto is actually much greater than the other way around. Don’t overthink it.
