Introducing Codex FX. The new standard for moving between fiat and stablecoins. Anything to anything.


The Arizona Attorney General today filed criminal charges against one of our registered exchanges related to prediction markets. This is a jurisdictional dispute and entirely inappropriate as a criminal prosecution. The @CFTC is watching this closely and evaluating its options.

Thanks to @AlexH_Johnson and @sytaylor for talking about @Rhythmic_io on the Fintech Takes podcast. Give it a listen here: fintechtakes.com/podcast/2026-0…



Great to see leadership like this from Chair Selig at a time when it’s sorely needed. The Arizona AG action today was, without reasonable debate, a truly disgusting and inappropriate over reach.



We're seeing an "insane situation" in which prediction markets like Kalshi let people bet on anything from elections to wars, @AZAGMayes says. "Those things are just illegal in the state of Arizona," she tells @balin_om. More details: ktar.com/arizona-busine…


🚨 MASSIVE: Mastercard just acquired BVNK for $1.8B. This one hits different. --- BVNK had a rough road. Previous acqusitions that fell through. Competing against massive companies. But they made it. Now they're the stablecoin infrastructure layer inside the world's second-largest card network. 130+ countries. Chain-agnostic. Compliance bundled. --- Mastercard wants to own middleware between fiat and crypto rails. Every bank, neobank, and fintech that plugs into Mastercard now gets stablecoin orchestration as a feature — not a separate product to build. Or a new vendor or supplier. Bundling is powerful. --- Mastercard's CPO said something you should write interesting: "We expect most financial institutions will in time provide digital currency services." Most. Financial. Institutions. We're still very early. --- Every Bank is currently shopping for vendors and partners to get into this space. For orchestration it has been a three horse race - Bridge - BVNK - ZeroHash --- Bridge had a larger parent in Stripe who could help with distribution. ZeroHash had many deep tradfi partners and investors. BVNK was punching above its weight class and hanging in. Now it can get way more distribution. --- What's interesting here is... Who's the right seller of this? Stripe is a PSP Mastercard is a network But they both do lots of other things. --- I guess we'll find out in time. The deeper we get intro crypto winter, the brighter the sun shines on Stablecoins and tokenization Congrats BVNK


We need to end prediction markets for government action. NOW. This bone chilling story about a reporter’s life threatened bc he simply reported on Iran missile strikes: “After you make us lose $900,000 we will invest no less than that to finish you.” timesofisrael.com/gamblers-tryin…
