Specifically, that USDT adopters (in the developing world) will increase their cash balances relative to their peers who use the local, more inflationary currency. That bigger cash balance in USDT can then, in time, be traded for Bitcoin as longer-term savings. https://fountain.fm/episode/us4OtK6HIiDvOWtFCEv2
