Many in D.C. and the media are rightfully energized about stablecoin payments -- finally! -- thanks to the promise of stablecoin legislation. No doubt this is exciting, long overdue, and something we at Flexa have been working for since 2018; I, personally, have been to 50+ Senate and House offices, had 250+ meetings, all for the greater good of authenticating/legitimizing the biggest technological breakthrough of our lifetimes with meaningful, if not perfect, regulation -- regulation that will trigger full scale adoption for merchants, and for all of commerce. Honestly, I cannot over emphasize how massive this is, and I very much look forward to time proving this to be absolutely correct. But now I want to pause, before the legislation hits and the world reacts as if stablecoin payments are something new, and congratulate the entire Flexa team on the eve of this legislation becoming a reality. Why? Because Flexa has been powering stablecoin payments since 2019. Because Flexa already enables enterprise grade merchants like Chipotle, Regal, Sheetz, Ulta Beauty, GameStop (and many new merchants coming soon™) to accept stablecoin payments -- now -- launched years before other payment platforms, and prior to even a hint of this needed regulation. Because unlike any other payment platform, Flexa provides its merchant partners with fraud proof and immediate payment solutions for any digital asset from any wallet, with payments contractually guaranteed, all thanks to the genius of Amp, the only neutral collateral token on earth, which for the first time in the history of human commerce has entirely decentralized risk, obliterating the need for 2000+ person credit/debit fraud departments that needlessly contribute to total U.S. social cost of payments exceeding 2% of the U.S. GDP each year, which equates to the U.S. lighting ~$700B on fire annually, for no reason, all because it relies on analogue debit/credit rails invented 30 years before the internet (and by the way, yes, those are the same rails MasterCard, etc., are still using today with their alleged stablecoin payment platforms). Because the ridiculously cool stuff we've already built but haven't launched will power a future of payments beyond stablecoins; meaning, Flexa is poised to power the post-stablecoin, next generation of payments today, 5 years before everyone else, just like we powered stabecoin payments 5 years before anyone else. That said, I could not be more excited about the incoming stablecoin legislation and its impact on the future of payments, which will not include credit or debit rails, and which will at long last be fully open commerce for all, unbanked and underbanked included, equally, all brought to you by Flexa, and all powered by Amp.
