what is strike actually doing?
I think they want to be able to do cheap forex through Bitcoin.
That is, if you want to transfer/convert currency A to currency B they would buy Bitcoin with currency A, then transfer Bitcoin to a wallet in country B, then buy currency B with that Bitcoin.
Basically using the Bitcoin network as a cheap money transfer mechanism.

Why wouldn’t you just use a stable coin? Strike is already centralized and requires KYC.

I haven't used it so I'm not sure, but I think it's just simplicity.
I think you can spend Bitcoin and receive USD directly to a bank account from one place. There's no need to go through an exchange.
