@dadiomov Micropayments. Most “transactions” are not payments. Cloudflare processes more transactions every second than SWIFT does every 24 hours. These are bot/agent transactions. When they start interacting with commerce, I don’t think they’ll choose cards.

I don't understand the premise that "agents must use stablecoins." Why can't an agent remember the 16 digits of a credit card? Sorry maybe I'm a payments n00b. Stablecoins have a lot of great use cases, but ecommerce shopping is pretty well optimized already for cards.

Conviction is contagious @NathanMcCauley. $STRC
Nathan McCauley ⚓@nathanmccauley

Conviction compounds. Institutions don’t just talk about Bitcoin, they structure around it. Today, @Anchorage Digital has announced it holds $STRC, @Strategy’s perpetual preferred stock, on our balance sheet. When the company that operationalizes Bitcoin infrastructure puts capital alongside the company that operationalized the Bitcoin treasury strategy…that's a signal. Anchorage Digital🤝Strategy. Look forward to continue building the future of BTC with you @Saylor & @Phongle.

@shaunmmaguire Flew Hawaiian last week and experienced starlink for the first time. Was incredible and same exp. as my home 1gb fiber. Just got off a 10 hour United flight. Awful. Took 1 hr to connect, crew reset system once, and websites hardly loaded. Starlink ftw - would def pay extra.

I flew on a United flight today without Starlink and the internet absolutely sucked Got no work done If United showed which airplanes have Starlink vs which don’t I’d pay double for the former

Kevin Warsh has been an advisor to Anchorage since the very beginning and I couldn’t be more excited that he’s been selected as the next chair of Federal Reserve. If you’re looking for proof of work, here’s his WSJ op-ed from 2018 where he quotes Satoshi from the Genesis block.

This is a fantastically good choice. I've known Kevin for 30 years; he combines great insight in economics and finance with keen understanding of technology and business. There is nobody more qualified for this job at this moment of profound technological and economic change.

When the @USOCC granted us our federal bank charter 5 years ago, we proved this industry could meet the highest regulatory bar. Today, Anchorage Digital sets the standard for institutional digital asset trading, custody, and settlement.

0/ We Need to Fix Our Deal with Banks Right now, the average American faces a comically unfair deal with banks: deposit your money, get paid nothing, they do hilariously risky stuff, and if it goes well, they pay themselves huge bonuses. Which somehow isn't even the bad part!

🚨 JUST IN: The Trump administration is now looking into normalizing PORTABLE MORTGAGES - allowing Americans to keep their interest rate, term and lender when moving to a different home. FHFA Director Bill Pulte: "We are actively evaluating portable mortgages." This also allows you to avoid paying early repayment charges on the current loan. Thousands saved. Basic rundown: "Instead of taking out a completely new mortgage, you use the money raised from the sale of your property to pay off your existing mortgage and take out a new mortgage on the same terms with your existing provider to cover the cost of buying your new home."

How badly do you have to fuck up your insane revisionist history for me to agree with @BetterMarkets and the community notes? SBF was a criminal. He was a pathological liar. He stole customer funds. He deceived users and investors. FTX was 100% insolvent. You have to be a literal fucking retard or a criminal involved with the thing to think otherwise.

Today we performed the transfer of the USDtb $1.8B+ contract from @ethena to @Anchorage and scored a couple firsts together: - First federally regulated stablecoin in the US - First on-shored stablecoin, of which we expect many more following the GENIUS Act - First large ($1B+) RWA smart contract to change ownership
Ethena@ethena

As previously announced below, earlier today the USDtb smart contract was transitioned to Anchorage Digital, a monumental onshoring making USDtb the first federally-regulated stablecoin issued in a compliant manner under the GENIUS Act.

U.S. Bank was selected to serve as a custodian for reserves backing @Anchorage Digital’s payment stablecoins — the only #crypto-native bank in the U.S. with a federal charter. This partnership reflects the growing alignment between digital finance and traditional banking. usbank.com/about-us-bank/…
