According to market reports, Stripe CEO Patrick Collison stated that the rise of interest-bearing stablecoin options will compel banks to provide customers with competitive rates. Collison said, 'The average savings rate for deposits in the US and Europe is far below 1%, providing conditions for stablecoins to disrupt. Depositors should receive returns close to market levels.
