.@a16z crypto dropped their stablecoin map 3 days ago. I spent the last 72h enriching it. Not because they did a bad job they did a great one (ty Noah Levine). But the stablecoin backend is so vast that no single map can capture it. So I added 150+ players and broke out the categories I think deserve their own row. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝟰 𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗜 𝗯𝗿𝗼𝗸𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝘁 Layer 1: On-chain credit. Stablecoins aren't just rails anymore. They're collateral. Morpho, Aave Labs, Maple Finance, Centrifuge are originating loans at scale. Tokenized treasuries (BlackRock BUIDL, Ondo Finance, Superstate) crossed $7B AUM. DeFi quietly eating the credit market. Layer 2: Tokenized bank deposits. Not stablecoins. A parallel system. J.P. Morgan Kinexys (JPMD), Citi Token Services, BNY Mellon, HSBC, BNP Paribas, UBS Digital Cash. Banks aren't fighting stablecoins, they're issuing their own programmable money in parallel. Layer 3: Agent commerce. AI agents transacting in stablecoins. x402 (Coinbase + Cloudflare), AP2 (Google), ACP (OpenAI + Stripe). 6 months ago this was a thesis. Now it's live protocols. Layer 4: B2B accounting. Bitwave, Cryptio, TRES Finance. The plumbing nobody talks about until you need to close your books. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝘆𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 Most "stablecoin maps" you see online are payment-rail-only. Issuers, on-ramps, wallets, blockchains. They miss the half of the stack where the most interesting things are happening. The real shift isn't "can I send USDC faster than SWIFT." It's that an entire parallel financial system is forming, with credit, deposits, FX, accounting, and AI commerce all natively stablecoin-denominated. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗜 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 Card-to-Stable PSPs became its own sub-category. Merchants accept cards as usual. Funds land in their USDC wallet in seconds. No FX markup, no T+2, no correspondent banks. The players: @subyhq (what we're building), Stripe (via Bridge), BVNK, Inflowpay Worldpay and Triple-A. Full map (3 slides) below ↓ Hat tip to a16z crypto for the original framework. PS: I post weekly about stablecoin infra with Suby and the reality of building a payment startup. Follow for more.

(Lack of) Privacy may the missing link for crypto payments adoption. Imagine, a company pays employees in crypto on-chain. With the current state of crypto, you can pretty much see how much everyone in the company is paid (by clicking the from address). 🤷‍♂️

🇬🇧 GILTS Stablebonds are now on @Loopscale. Tokenised UK government bonds paired with @tokengbp’s tGBP on Solana’s leverage infrastructure. Both sides GBP-denominated: collateral and yield.

@hagaetc @Visa For your next report tGBP.io !

It's popular to dismiss non-USD stablecoins, but what is actually going on there? 📊 We're launching a local stablecoin report with @Visa - first comprehensive analysis covering 32 non-USD stablecoins, $1B+ market cap, $300B+ transfer volume. Coming end of Feb. 🔍 With this we're also launching a brand new stable coin dataset - enterprise data infrastructure tracking 200+ stablecoins across 30+ chains with transparent methodology. Launching in March.

@SubuTrade @KobeissiLetter @grok @grok during the 8 months were silver where up in 1980, what did gold do? and after the 8 months what did gold do ?

@SubuTrade @KobeissiLetter @grok what did the price of gold do 1,2,3 months later?

BREAKING: Silver extends gains to a record $71/oz, now up nearly +150% YTD. We are quite literally witnessing one of the most historic runs in precious metals ever.

Dead…

@Leosidus_ @Rainmaker1973 Yet it is moving ….

@Rainmaker1973 Imagine this: The final gear will never, ever move even a single tooth in the entire future of the cosmos. Long before that, every atom in the entire universe will have decayed or been ripped apart by the heat death of the universe.

This machine visualizes a googol (1 followed by 100 zeros). It uses a 1:10 gear reduction repeated 100 times — meaning the final gear turns once only after the first one rotates a googol times.

@Rainmaker1973 Gears are mind blowing
