In the 1850s, America had over 8,000 different kinds of dollars. What kept them in line was the clearing house.
170 years later we're running the same problem.
Hundreds of USD and EUR stablecoins - all of them "a dollar" until you try swap them on a CEX or DEX.
But 1 USD should be 1 USD and 1 EUR should be 1 EUR. Regardless where you swap it.
The clearing house was the crux of the standard then.
It will be again on https://t.co/vEghL97FE7

Moving a dollar of one into a dollar of the other should be free, because they are the same dollar and there is nothing in the middle worth charging for.
But on every venue you actually use, it isn't - except on https://t.co/vEghL97FE7
Whether you manage treasury on an OTC desk, run payroll in USD stables as a CFO, sit on an institutional treasury, make markets, or arbitrage the spread, you pay for that conversion every time you do it, and across a year of real volume it runs into the millions.
On https://t.co/vEghL97FE7 the rate is 1:1, settlement is atomic, and the cost is zero.

The real question is what FX layer gets built on top.
A few additions from @seraprotocol’s view:
The piece conflates two different things: FX stablecoin issuance (EURC, BRZ, etc.) and FX trading infrastructure. The former struggles for the network-effect reasons you laid out. The latter is a different problem, and it’s where the actual unlock lives: building the FX market on top of USDT/C, so the stablecoin economy becomes multi-currency at the infrastructure level rather than the UI level.
On synthetic FX: MtM NDFs are real and valuable, but every NDF structure needs a reference rate. An off-chain oracle ultimately tracks TradFi spot and forward markets, which means the “on-chain FX” is tokenized exposure to off-chain price formation. The 31/69 spot-vs-derivatives split doesn’t show spot is irrelevant. It shows derivatives sitting on top of an extremely deep, efficient spot foundation. NDF desks hedge in deliverable G10 every day. Without that layer, synthetic FX is oracle-priced IOUs with hidden hedging and counterparty risk.
Two technical notes:
1/ CHF NDF isn’t really a market. CHF is fully deliverable. NDFs exist for capital-controlled currencies (CNY, MYR, INR, KRW, BRL, TWD, IDR, PHP), not freely convertible G10. The example understates how narrow the pure-NDF case actually is.
2/ On-chain spot FX price discovery isn’t solved yet. That’s exactly what makes the CLOB layer at Sera foundational rather than redundant.
Sera’s view: stablecoins are foundational. CLOB-based on-chain FX is the next foundational layer. Synthetic NDF is a derivative layer that sits on top of both. All three compound. The trillion-dollar vision the piece describes needs real price formation on-chain, not just synthetic wrappers around off-chain rates.
