### **Why Stablecoins for Payments?**

✅ **Instant Settlements** – No 3-5 day bank delays; settle transactions in minutes.

✅ **Lower Fees** – No costly SWIFT/remittance fees (e.g., Western Union takes ~5-10%; stablecoins charge pennies).

✅ **Stability** – Pegged to USD or other assets, reducing volatility relative to Bitcoin or local currencies (most critical in high-inflation nations like Argentina).

✅ **Borderless** – No intermediaries like correspondent banks are required.
