Merchants Are Adopting Stablecoins… and Ending Crypto’s Lottery Era

In this clip, David explains how Klarna’s stablecoin push, merchant incentives, bank adoption, and seamless on-chain rails will make stablecoins ubiquitous across the U.S. economy. Once stablecoins hit critical mass, accessing crypto becomes frictionless — and that unlocks the next era of on-chain finance, including prediction markets, consumer payments, and instant global rails.

But there’s a catch.

Graham and David then pivot into why the era of effortless 100x gains, early airdrops, and mid-curve lottery tickets is over. Institutions are here. Sophisticated players dominate flows. The market is maturing — fast.

In this clip:
• Klarna’s 155M users get stablecoin rails
• Merchants begin adopting stablecoins at scale
• Banks join the stablecoin wave
• Stablecoin ubiquity → crypto access explodes
• Why the golden age of “easy riches” is over
• Why institutions now control edge
• Why retail can’t expect 2021-style returns again
