The existing financial system that underpins the world is being rewritten right in front of our eyes. If you can’t see it yet, let me make it clear for you: The President of the free world (who experienced a significant debanking issue by centralized entities) has opened the flood gate for a total re-write of the ledger systems, to a scale not seen since the early 2000s. Decentralized systems have finally hit near centralized system scale and throughput capacity. Users don’t have to worry about gas fees, signing, and all the previous complexities of the decentralized financial system. As a result, applications like @Polymarket are now culturally relevant without the end user needing to know the underlying infrastructure. This is a big deal in terms of where we’re at in the adoption curve. The world has already started to rapidly adopt stablecoins and blockchain based technologies. In particular, stablecoin adoption is the export of the dollar to other regions. A majority of stable coins now live in the East. A majority of Bitcoin trading is in the east. There is a reason for this. The reason for this is that a socialistic state driven by confuscian values (the state > the individual) places such intense capital controls on its population which creates sub-par capital markets when compared to the free markets of the west. Hence, eastern buyers have shown a strong desire to exchange their local currency’s for dollars, which is just the start of the new financial fabric being laid out. Both Bitcoin and stablecoins offer the eastern investor safe-haven against their local capital markets (the Shanghai Stock Exchange when compared to most American indexes have performed much worse). When you map out where the stablecoins are flowing and what truly scalable decentralized systems mean, you realize that the past 10 years of crypto were just a proof of concept. True adoption of decentralized finance won’t be an AMM where you swap ETH for a meme coin. It will be a fully immutable, decentralized ledger and marketplace that allows the world’s capital markets to be traded anywhere, at anytime. We call this Defi 2.0. On GTE, the average user will be able to trade crypto, stocks, commodities, and more in a singular account, with hyper optimized infrastructure to create the best possible end prices. When this fabric is laid, the world will start to look like below. The question is not if this will happen. It’s happening as we speak. The question is: What are you doing to prepare for it? Historians will look back at now and beyond and point out that this era parallels the electronic era for trading of the late 90’s and early 2000. We know we’re ready. Are you?
