Odd Lots has been exploring the history of the eurodollar market in a special three-part series hosted by Columbia Law School's Lev Menand and the New York Fed's Josh Younger. But why should we care about the origins of this market at all? How do eurodollars fit into the global financial system right now?

We discuss why some policymakers have been sounding the alarm and whether stablecoins are the new eurodollars.
