> I send stablecoins to family member (worth noting this would be difficult to do in FIAT due to the amount) and when he pays me back I can then withdraw my $TOKEN. While you're on your high horse about the taxes comment, you should know that in the US what you're describing here is illegal. You can't give someone an interest-free loan and have neither party pay taxes on it. Your options are roughly either to classify it as a gift or structure it like an actual loan, with a minimum acceptable rate published by the IRS each month. https://www.lindsayandbrownell.com/beware-of-the-interest-fr... |

The loans aren't interest free, they have a variable rate determined by supply and demand. For USDC its been pretty steady around 3%. There was a day or two last year where it spiked to 40% when Justin Sun removed billions of his capital.
In response to wire transfer, I was more complaining about having to be at a physical bank branch to do it. Not sure if that is unusual either.
edit: Just remembered that normally I wouldn't have to physically go to the bank. I had to do so to make sure it arrived in time for the signing. I think they told me it would take a day or two if I did it online/over phone? But being there in person they said it would "probably" arrive in a couple hours
