We are in a golden age of new punk, hardcore and emo bands. Many of the OGs still killing it as well. What a time.

This is just the weekly stablecoin volume that moves through the @WalletConnect Network. On average we see more than $30B+ in monthly transaction volume. Next up trillions as we scale WalletConnect Pay.

Jalen Brunson was asked how he felt about Roman Reigns winning in the main event of Wrestlemania after advancing in the playoffs 😭 “WE ACKNOWLEDGE HIM BEFORE EVERY GAME”

Spent the past 6 months in compliance meetings with card acquirers and PSPs. Starting to see a real pattern re. what this category of partners care about: what does the method collect, where does it sit, does it fit our compliance build? Do we need to build new things? Short answer is no. Longer answer here in 📹+🧵(if you prefer reading)

Are we going mainstream? Looks like it. WalletConnect CEO @Houlgrave discusses stablecoins infiltrating traditional finance on @SchwabNetwork. Watch:

.@WalletConnect integration means Canton's privacy-preserving infrastructure is now accessible through one of the most widely adopted connectivity standards in crypto. Wallets and custodians connecting to Canton retain full control over custody and signing authority. Sessions are end-to-end encrypted. Canton's configurable privacy is preserved throughout. For builders, one integration opens access to 700+ wallet providers and 70K+ applications.

Everytime I listen to @themenzingers they remind me of such a specific time of my life. Truly @springsteen for millennials.

Up to 80% of global retail still happens in person, and crypto payments have barely touched it. @WalletConnect CEO Jess Houlgrave told PYMNTS the next phase of stablecoin adoption depends on making crypto invisible at the checkout counter. No new terminals. No staff retraining. Just another line in the payments stack. Read the full article: hubs.ly/Q04dKfz30

We took the the @WalletConnect Pay pop up from Cannes to Hong Kong. This time we did so in partnership with our friends at @SafePal. Attendees were able to use WalletConnect Pay to buy exclusive merch and SafePal devices with stablecoins. Next stop Amsterdam.

Your USDG just became spendable. @global_dollar now works anywhere WalletConnect Pay is accepted, straight from your wallet, no swaps, no bridges. Regulated, 1:1 backed, and live at checkout across integrated PoS terminals, including Ingenico and iMin.

it's wild that for all the money the crypto industry has spent on lobbying and attention that a D-list celebrity from the OC can get more airtime on TV and podcasts to clown us.

"How does WalletConnect Pay work?" Here's how. ↓

Thank you, HONG KONG 🇭🇰 Another epic WalletConnect Pay pop up with @SafePal. The community showed up, paid in crypto, and walked away with exclusive swag. Where should we do the next one?

This legit looks like what you’d see at a Staten Island engagement party.

Platforms are now letting recipients choose stablecoin payouts. @DoorDash, @Gusto, @Deel plus a growing and existing list of others. Even @Pornhub. The opt-in framing matters. Nobody is pushing stablecoins on workers or merchants. People need to choose to receive them. The questions I'm tracking after the announcement: do they hold or convert to fiat immediately? Do they spend? With what wallet? Do they even want one? And the one nobody is asking: what education are these platforms doing with their base on why opting to receive stablecoins is actually worth it? That is the difference between a pass-through and a holder base being built. If the education lands and people hold and spend, that is when real-world stablecoin commerce starts. The infrastructure question that follows is which wallet connects that capital to where people actually want to use it. That's what @WalletConnect Pay solves.
