Excited to see NALA named to the Forbes Fintech 50 for the 2nd year running. Behind the scenes, we’ve evolved into stablecoin-enabled payments faster settlement, stronger unit economics, and more reliable rails into Africa & Asia. RAFIKI is closing some of the largest B2B contracts in our history as global partners adopt better rails for emerging market payouts. Still early. Still building. Still cooking. Building Payments for #TheNextBillion 🦁

Happy to bring second place back to Rwanda, thanks to Venture Z, all the way from Saudi Arabia. Thank you, @Lisk and @CV_Labs, for being part of our journey. People asked me, king, what would have happened if you never won… I guess we’ll never know.

@Nick_van_Eck Couldn’t agree more - but also interestingly is if you can hedge/underwrite currency risk appropriately they become a very appealing source of yield (EM SME private credit for example)

Inflation slowing to 12% “gives scope for rate cuts.” Emerging markets will continue to be a massive market for stablecoin-based apps. Internet capital markets.

Where we see this persist is with founders who come from a “crypto” vs fintech background who don’t understand the regulatory implications and pre requisites to operate a business in the financial services space. The fintech founders have a regulatory first approach and over engineering of compliance adherence even when there are grey areas

Some non-KYC fintech builders know they're dodging compliance. Most don't. But none of them see the real risk, the massive fraud surface area it creates.

The president of the United States is accusing the CEO of Coinbase of "rug pulling" him. What stage of the cycle is this?
Eleanor Terrett@EleanorTerrett

🚨SCOOP: The White House is considering pulling its support for the crypto market structure bill entirely if @coinbase does not come back to the table with a yield agreement that satisfies the banks and gets everyone to a deal, a source close to the Trump administration tells me. The White House is said to be furious with Coinbase’s “unilateral” action on Wednesday, which it apparently was not notified of in advance, calling it a “rug pull” against the White House and the rest of the industry. The White House does not believe that one company speaks for the entire industry, the source continued. “This is President Trump’s bill at the end of the day, not Brian Armstrong’s,” the source said.
