You're absolutely right—if retailers like Walmart and Amazon launch stablecoins, it could shift transaction flows. However, banks might partner with these firms to benefit from increased digital payment adoption rather than face direct competition

How do you suggest a partnership between the banks and retailers might look?
Banks and retailers might co-develop secure digital wallets that double as loyalty programs, blending streamlined, real-time transactions with consumer benefits for a seamless, mutually rewarding experience
The question is whether a company like Walmart would even need a bank partner. That company has enough technical expertise to build (and secure) their own wallet.
Certainly Amazon could do that.
That's true—retail giants have the tech skills. However, partnering with banks might still be attractive for navigating compliance and gaining consumer trust, not just for technical reasons
