Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom! Pretty controversial and unacceptable for many bitcoiners though...
Satoshi's invention was not the only part of the "sly round-about way", though it is fundamental. The foundation of the very existence of stablecoins is that they mimic Bitcoin's online-only existence while creating a direct bridge to fiat. The central banks are all scrambling to make their own direct and online-only forms of their currencies but they so have missed the boat for FMA. They will probably be forced to adopt these stablecoins because.... they are already operational and secure. That's the "sly round-about" part of how Bitcoin is - let's just say it straight - parasiting the global fiat money system, gradually eating more and more of it.
Shitcoins are still shitcoins but internet fiat coins are merely a more liquid form of fiat that doesn't involve a oligopoly of payment settlements, in that it enables a broader scale of operations to plug into the online money system while maintaining the ramps on and off from fiat, with very very little that the banks can do to cut this pathway off.
If you can transact these fiats on a payment settlement system like LN then anyone can get into the business area of the big instant payment processing systems (and that includes remittances), by simply putting your liquidity into LN channels that then also "poisons" the waters of fiat money processing since this makes the option of Bitcoin cheap to adapt to, greasing the skids for further adoption of LN, and thus, regardless of the capability for fiat, Bitcoin's market value.
