I am not an expert in crypto at all, but what I would love to see maybe, is some type of stablecoin supported by the USPS. USPS used to be in the banking business and are now looking into it again. Is there an opportunity for the USPS to support USDC, to replace money orders to help serve the underbanked?

I dunno.

Why wouldn't the USPS just be a bank, with accounts with the Fed and FDIC insurance though? The USPS not providing banking services is because Congress won't let it.
