E-money

Also called electronic money

What crypto means by it

Regulated digital money issued against funds you hand over and redeemable one for one. It is the legal category most payment app balances actually sit in.

What you already know this as

Already the banking answer, and the closest existing thing to a fiat-backed stablecoin. What differs is who supervises the issuer and where the reserves sit.
