The current bear market is horrible for the whole industry, especially payments is struggling. Yet it's a good time to talk about stable coins like tether, eos stable coins and bitshares stable coins. It's a trend and it will be exciting to see more wallets coming up that support them for commerce. A stablecoin at the POS is way better than a btc.
Stablecoins are attracting more and more demand and attention lately..
So, BTS should do some more PR activity for BitUSD, as it really has a chance of alternative tether..
