Stablecoins: Payment Tool, Not High‑Yield Savings Alternative
To be clear, we offer above market yields for savings (3.61 APY) and checking (2 APY) @bankonroger. I'm not concerned about competition & love embracing faster payments, I'm concerned about the impact to local economies. Stablecoins should be a payments...
Walmart Stablecoin Could Drain Rural Liquidity, Harm Local Lending
Let's debate with real numbers please. If @Walmart alone offered a yield-earning stablecoin, the impact to local lending/economies would be crippling. Billions would shift out of rural community liquidity into government debt instruments rather than local loans. These assumptions defy...

Questioning FDIC Expansion; Call for Data-Indexed System
With the floodgates open for industrial bank charters & private equity & crypto owned banks, I’m extremely suspect on why there’s such a drive to dramatically increase FDIC insurance in zero interest yield deposits. A data driven, indexed system is...
Banks Are Deeply Embedded in Private Credit Markets
“They’re all our clients, but I’m shocked that people are shocked,” JPMorgan’s commercial and investment bank. Until 5 years ago, I legitimately thought that private credit was funded by investors not bank debt - all a big RWA/capital game by...
3.61% APY Savings Adjust with Fed, No Fees
That’s just not true for us. @bankonroger savings is currently 3.61 APY & we adjust with Fed Funds movement. No gimmicks or fees. We do have a cap where interest over 250k is more limited (opposite from most) to contain...

Missing Community Banks Sparks Call for Mega Deposit Insurance
I sure miss the days when new bank formations were a group of citizens coming together to fund economic growth for their communities. Is this why there’s a push for mega deposit insurance?
