Adoption Curves
adoption curves in technology follow the same pattern so consistently it’s almost boring.
nothing, nothing, nothing, then suddenly everyone.
the internet looked like a niche hobby until it didn’t. smartphones looked like expensive toys until they were in every pocket on earth. each time the infrastructure had to reach a certain threshold before the network effects kicked in and made adoption feel inevitable in retrospect.
stablecoins are at that threshold right now. government digitization is the forcing function that pushes them past it.
slow, then all at once. we’re still in the slow part. barely.
