AI laboratories typically regard computing power as the core leverage for product expansion. In contrast, the development path of the stablecoin ecosystem so far warrants reflection—mostly stacking algorithm innovations rather than genuine financial investment. The evolution of stablecoins we observe is essentially still at the stage of technological iteration, lacking the construction of real economic infrastructure that supports system value. In other words, product expansion and value release have not been matched with corresponding economic cost investments and actual operational support. This mismatch may be the key challenge that the stablecoin ecosystem needs to overcome in the next stage.

Basically, stablecoins have been all talk and no action; no one is really willing to invest money into building the infrastructure. --- Algorithms keep innovating, but the economic foundation remains a shell; no wonder the ecosystem hasn't taken off. --- That's the real issue: technology iterates quickly, but without real cost support, it’s destined not to go far. --- Got it, it's because no one wants to do the money-burning work, everyone just wants to make quick and easy profits. --- The core contradiction is: wanting returns but not willing to invest. How naive, everyone. --- They're far behind AI labs; they know that investing money leads to output, while stablecoins are still in a daze. --- The real economic infrastructure construction is scarce, not those flashy algorithms. --- Value release is not aligned with cost input; this model will collapse sooner or later. No wonder who.

Basically, it's still just making empty promises. Having technology alone without real capital investment can only go so far. It feels like stablecoins are currently just theoretical discussions. Stacking algorithms is outdated; real economic support is necessary. This analysis hits the mark—technological innovation ≠ economic value. Many projects haven't thought it through. After all this, it's still just a pseudo-demand. Let's wait and see who can truly invest money to build the infrastructure.

Basically, these stablecoin folks are still just talking on paper. Has anyone really invested money? Algorithm stacks and infrastructure—this is just nonsense. Again with the same old story. What's the use of fancy technology alone... it needs real money to back it up. For stablecoins to really succeed, they need to learn from AI labs how to leverage capital. Honestly, today's stablecoins are just castles in the air, in need of a "real economy" baptism.

This article hits the point. Stablecoins are just a bunch of empty talk; few are actually willing to put real money in. --- Algorithm stacking can indeed fool people, but without real funds backing it, it will eventually collapse—that's an iron law. --- Basically, is it just trying to save costs with technology? Uh... in Web3, this trick is seen too often. --- The core issue is that no one is truly willing to invest; everyone just wants to get rich quick without effort. --- Infrastructure construction—just hearing the term makes it sound like money-burning. No wonder everyone is playing the algorithm card. --- So, if stablecoins are to really take off, someone has to take on the economic cost. Who will it be?

That really hits home. The stablecoin sector has been all talk and no real action. Algorithmic stacking is like a house of cards, unable to withstand any storm. Where has the real infrastructure investment gone? Where did all the money go? We've been talking about the same things for so long, it's getting boring. Having just technical solutions isn't enough; you need real financial backing. That's probably why stablecoins have never truly broken through — lacking sufficient backing.

ngl, been watching stablecoins shuffle the same deck for years now. it's like we're still at mile 3 of a marathon nobody paid for proper aid stations. all algo this, collateral that... where's the actual infrastructure spend tho? feels like we're sprinting on fumes instead of building for the long haul, tbh.
