Do you feel like cash has more options than ever?
Do you feel like cash has more options than ever?

For years, the choice was simple: keeping your cash or invest it
Today, stablecoins are creating a growing middle ground.

To me the options now seem to be:

  • Savings account (+ 0.26 – 1.91% interest)

  • MMFs (~ +2.25% interest)

  • Sits home (- 3.3.% yearly inflation in Europe)

  • Stablecoins (+3–7% APY)

Did I miss anything?

And because Bitpanda has an “Earn on stablecoin” option, I was wondering: Are stablecoins still on your radar? How do you guys actually manage idle cash?

Discussion

This stat is getting framed everywhere as a global crypto signal but it reads as a us specific phenomenon. Bitcoin etf outflows persisted into june 18 with net redemptions of about €83 million and a 30 day total of roughly €5.86 billion. Ethereum etf products posted similar negative flows over the same period and both funds posted 25 negative days out of the last 30, indicating sustained institutional reduction rather than temporary profit taking. The european angle thats missing from most of the coverage are us spot etf as they reflect how american pension funds, wirehouses and brokerages are positioning. They say almost nothing about how european retail or institutional users are actually behaving on platforms here. Despite the outflows, bitcoin actually held above roughly €55,000 and posted a daily gain on strong volume while the fear and greed index stayed in extreme fear territory. That mismatch between price, sentimen and us institutional flow tells you these arent moving together rn which makes it even less reliable as a signal for whats happening on this side of the atlantic. European users are also operating under a completely different structural backdrop as Mica is reshaping who can legally operate here, the eu doesnt have the same etf driven flow dynamics the us does and platforms like bitpanda serve a market where dca style retail behaviour tends to be a lot less reactive to daily us flow data than american trading patterns are. has your own buying or holding behaviour over the last month tracked with this US outflow story at all or have you mostly just kept doing what you were already doing?
