[Buying crypto still breaks at the most basic step: Paying] “Some banks will just decline the transaction outright.” “This is supposed to be your money.” “You complete KYC, hit buy… then your bank blocks the payment.” Ivan Soto-Wright points to a problem few people talk about. Many banks still...

Your credit card points are about to be worthless. & nobody’s talking about it. PayPal, Square, Visa, Mastercard, J.P. Morgan… They’re ALL shifting to crypto payments. When they fully adopt USDC, stablecoins, and Bitcoin for transactions, your airline miles and cash back rewards will be replaced with crypto “points.” Here’s what’s really happening: Crypto payments cut out the card networks entirely. No Visa. No Mastercard. No middleman taking 3% fees. They’ll be replaced with crypto-based reward systems that benefit the payment processors, not you. Your financial advisor is still telling you to maximize credit card points. Meanwhile, the entire infrastructure is being rebuilt without them. While everyone’s chasing airline miles that’ll be obsolete in the next year, smart money is building the crypto payment infrastructure that replaces them. Crypto payment processing can generate $100-500/month per location in recurring revenue. That’s real income (not points that expire) The shift is happening now. You can either keep optimizing for a dying system or build the infrastructure for the new one. Comment “Residual” below, and I’ll send you the step-by-step guide on how to profit from this shift.1

CrashiusClay explains why TON is one of the easiest bets left in crypto and puts a $50B target on it "The biggest problem most blockchains have is zero users. Cardano, cool you have a blockchain and no users. TON has the complete opposite. You have all the users, all the potential, the wallet inside the app, all these ways to integrate and make it not even feel like crypto." "Cardano hit $80B market cap. I think TON has a way brighter future than Cardano ever did, way more users than Cardano ever had or will have, a way better founder than Cardano ever had or will have. Take 30% off Cardano's all time high as a bare case, I'm thinking $50B market cap is easy for TON. It's at $5B right now. That's a 10X, puts it at $20." "And that's not factoring in the billion users Telegram has. So that logical base case of $50B could turn into $100B."

Robinhood Chain could become the next billion-dollar meme ecosystem. The reason is simple Every successful ecosystem in crypto was never built around a single meme coin pumping. It was built around the users, attention, and ecosystem effects that memes created. $BRETT once reached a $2B market cap and became one of the most iconic memes in the Base ecosystem. It helped Base attract massive attention, users, and liquidity. Solana followed a similar path. Over the past few years, meme coins became one of Solana’s strongest user acquisition channels. further proved that speculation can be transformed into massive on-chain user growth. Almost every successful ecosystem has gone through a meme-driven growth phase. And Robinhood Chain happens to have several unique advantages: First, it has Robinhood’s distribution power with tens of millions of traditional finance users. Second, Robinhood is building around RWA and tokenized stocks, which requires bringing more users on-chain. Third, memes could become the lowest-friction entry point connecting traditional finance users with the crypto world. Robinhood’s CEO said: “While we’re building Robinhood Chain to be the best chain for RWA… it works great for memes too.” Many people see this as just a casual comment. But I think it reveals Robinhood’s deeper product strategy. Because RWA is unlikely to be the reason users enter crypto for the first time. Very few people will download a wallet and learn how bridges work just to buy a tokenized stock. But a viral meme can become the first interaction that brings users on-chain. Once users enter the ecosystem, they can gradually explore stablecoins, RWA, tokenized stocks, and other on-chain products. If Robinhood can replicate the Base and Solana playbook, Robinhood Chain could become the catalyst for the next major meme wave in crypto.

Binance CEO CZ 🔶 BNB says the crypto industry is too transparent: "I think right now the crypto industry is too transparent. It's actually extremely easy to track crypto funds. The blockchain is a public ledger. If you couple that with a few centralized exchanges, KYC information, you can track most of the transactions pretty accurately. So I think right now there's a lack of preserving of privacy." "For example, if your company pays everybody in crypto and if you get one payment today on the blockchain, you can just trace to the address that paid you and see how many addresses that address paid in the last week, then you can figure out everybody's salary. That's a privacy issue." "Another example, if you pay for a hotel [in crypto], then people will know that you're going to stay at that hotel, which for some people may create security issues. So there's little problems like those that are not solved yet."

When a solution is 5× cheaper than traditional banks… Banks will resist — of course they will. Because that’s exactly the meaning and power of #PayFi. 👉 “What used to be a privilege reserved for banks is now available to everyone. That’s what PayFi is all about.” — Chuck Zhang, Chuck, CFO & Partner at PolyFlow, speaking at #meridian2025 on the panel “Stablecoin Lending for a New Era of Global Finance.” Key takeaways from his talk: ✅ When retail is near-free but B2B stays costly, the bottleneck is enterprise on/off-ramps—the problem is banking, not blockchain; “traditional banks are the barrier to mass adoption at the moment.” ✅ PolyFlow provides payment rails connecting LatAm, Africa, Asia and beyond — these rails are planned in years, not months. ✅ One of the biggest adoption hurdles for cross-border operators is fraud; We must be extra vigilant against money laundering and fraud in order to gain the trust of the masses. ✅PolyFlow’s Decentralized ID makes large-value KYC as seamless as retail, letting users own their identity data and link Web2 credit/memberships to Web3 via ZKPs. 🎥 Still curious?

Blord is trending because the crypto billionaire has been arrested by FCID in Abuja this evening, over petitions filed by VeryDarkMan. This is what happened. Some months back, users of his payment app made multiple complains about inability to access their funds on his payment app. Verydarkman had to intervene called him out and asked him to fix the app. Blord then told Mr Jollof to announce that the reason users funds have been withheld is because BillPoint is short on staffs. But, VDM said it was a lie, that if that was truly the case, we have very high unemployment in the country, why not hire people to work do the job. Also, why is he not announcing this to his customers via the app, but going through Mr Jollof? That was all we heard about the case. Both Blord and Mr Jollof didn't address the issue ever since. (This is what caused the beef between Blord & VDM & Mr Jollof) Now, the complains from users kept growing. Implying that, Blord's app is still holding people's money. VDM then filed petitions that got him arrested. Talking about payment.. If you run a or own an estate .. You will likely have issues collecting bills be it, generator, electricity, water or gas. Use Vendr Utilities It automates the process, and makes your management easier and effective.

Crypto as We Know It Dies July 1, 2026 MiCA comes into full force on July 1, 2026. Over 90% of crypto platforms registered in the EU will be forced to stop serving European users. This is the end of crypto as we know it. Out of more than 1,200 crypto companies that were legally operating in the EU, only around 200 have obtained full authorization. That means roughly 80% to 90% of exchanges are either already gone or about to become illegal. MEXC and HTX have no license. Binance's fate is still uncertain. Even KuCoin, which did get licensed, was banned from taking new customers due to anti-money laundering failures. On top of that, USDT is not MiCA compliant, so EU users will be forced to switch to USDC or euros. Is this the death of crypto or the birth of a safer industry? Full breakdown 👇

BAANX AT ETHCC CANNES: THE FUTURE OF PAYMENTS TOOK CENTER STAGE While Cannes is famous for red carpets and film premieres, this year's ETHCC proved that the real blockbuster story was happening on the 4th floor of Palais des Festivals, where Baanx was rewriting the script for crypto payments. THE MAIN EVENT: SIMON JONES ON PAYMENTS EVOLUTION Chief Commercial Officer commanded the Main Stage with a simple but powerful message: "Why spending crypto should feel like spending cash." It wasn't just a presentation, it was a manifesto for the future of finance. Simon, an OG who's been bridging traditional finance and decentralized tech long before it was cool, didn't mince words about what's at stake. His specialty? Finding solutions that make crypto payments more accessible, secure, and impactful. And at ETHCC, he delivered exactly that vision. BUILDING BRANDS THAT USERS ACTUALLY OWN. When asked about "Building a Brand and Product in Web3," Simon dropped some serious knowledge: "Building brands in web3 is how you start to look at different concepts in the product that have been in existence and redefine how you can reach the global audience. Building a brand in web3 is truly about building a brand that people feel they have a level of ownership engagement." This wasn't corporate speak, this was someone who understands that Web3 isn't just about technology; it's about fundamentally changing the relationship between brands and users. emphasized that "web3 branding is how you build something that connects you to the users" and Baanx is living proof of this philosophy. THE MARKET LEADER PLAYBOOK Simon's formula for dominance was refreshingly straightforward: "You got to build a product that people like, in order to be a market leader." But he didn't stop there. He stressed the importance of building "a product that people interact with everyday" while staying true to brand values and helping users understand the real benefits. WHAT Baanx SHOWCASED: THE CRYPTO LIFE REVOLUTION The Baanx Investment team wasn't just talking theory, they were demonstrating real solutions. Their booth became a magnet for anyone curious about earning crypto just by swiping their Crypto Life Life Card. The value prop was clear: fast, transparent, and low-cost solutions for moving money globally, with just a few lines of code for integration. But here's what set them apart: true self-custody solutions. While others promise decentralization, Baanx delivers it, empowering users with full control over their digital assets without relying on third parties. THE ENTERPRISE GAME-CHANGER Simon Jone's track record speaks volumes. Under his leadership, Baanx has secured incredible enterprise partnerships with industry giants like MetaMask 🦊 and Ledger. These aren't just partnerships, they're validation that Baanx is solving real problems for real businesses. LOOKING FORWARD: THE FINTECH REVOLUTION As fintech companies play an increasingly important role in the global economy, Baanx positioned itself as the key driver of growth in the sector. Their platform is already helping well-known fintech brands expand their product offerings and reach new customers. THE CANNES TAKEAWAY What happened at #ETHCC Cannes wasn't just another crypto conference. It was a glimpse into a future where spending crypto feels as natural as spending cash, where brands build genuine ownership relationships with users, and where the bridge between traditional finance and Web3 isn't just a concept, it's a reality. Simon Jones and the $BXX team didn't just attend ETHCC; they owned it. And based on what they showcased, the future of payments is in very capable hands. The question isn't whether crypto payments will go mainstream, it's whether you'll be part of the revolution. 🔗

Cycles Pay is the first privacy-preserving crypto payment app for businesses. This is possible because of few specific design choices: First, the private keys stay on your mobile device. User actions are cryptographically signed by your private key before being submitted on-chain. The financial data is encrypted with that key and doesn’t leave your mobile device. Second, Cycles Pay uses a shielded pool to hide account balances on-chain. They are tracked as encrypted commitments and no one can see the underlying amounts or participants. Third, when you make a payment, a ZK proof is generated and verified on-chain to confirm the transaction is valid without revealing the amount or the counterparty. Users get blockchain integrity without exposing the transaction details.

CHAOS on CNN NewsNight as CNN’s Abby Phillip defends big banks debanking their political opponents. This exchange serves as a reminder of why Republicans should take a beat before trusting Big Banks and why open banking is so important. Phillip: “Banks can close your account for any reason…” Lydia Moynihan brings the receipts: “Do we really want to debank any political enemy? Because that’s what was happening…. What I think is fascinating, though is for years the media portrayed big banks as vampire squids and we're so skeptical of Wall Street, and now based on a few filings, now everyone's saying, ‘Oh [big banks] everything’s perfect.’ Do you think maybe a big bank is actually trying to cover their tracks?” Phillip: “I think you’re taking the concern about big banks the wrong way…” Moynihan: “Let’s be super clear about the political debanking that happened. And this happened to crypto.” [Phillip defends big banks some more.] Moynihan: “Let’s be clear. Debanking was something that was happen not just to Trump but to was happening to people in crypto. Which Brian Armstrong, the CEO of Coinbase, went out and said that’s what the Biden administration was doing. This is a tool that we know the Biden administration used to target people in crypto.”

CHAOS on CNN NewsNight as CNN’s Abby Phillip defends big banks debanking their political opponents. This exchange serves as a reminder of why Republicans should take a beat before trusting Big Banks and why open banking is so important.

Everyone is building crypto for people with apps. We’re experimenting and building for people with phones. Not smartphones. Not wallets. Not seed phrases. Just… a dial tone. Last weekend, I was deep in USSD architecture with Emmanuel uzoezie 🐝 (CTO at NectarFi🐝). And one idea kept coming up: In Nigeria, the real financial network isn’t apps. It’s USSD. So we asked: What if DeFi lived there? With Payce, you dial a code. And you can: - Send money - Pay merchants - Buy airtime, data, electricity, cable - Check balances - Swap tokens - Access lending - Withdraw crypto to your local bank - Send crypto to a phone number No app. No friction. No learning curve. We said crypto would bank the unbanked, but built it for the already banked. Payce flips that, and here’s the part most people won’t expect. We’ll be open-sourcing it because this shouldn’t be owned by one company. It should be a rail anyone can build on. Dial in. Pay out. P.S. Payce is currently in private test. More details soon. Welcome to money that works the way people already live.

Robinhood CEO: In the future there will be no distinction between crypto and traditional finance “I think that crypto technology has so many advantages over the traditional way we’re doing things that in the future there will be no distinction. It’s kind of how technology itself was viewed as a sector of the economy for a very long time… I think crypto will go through the same transition where we’re still thinking about it in its own bucket but eventually everything will be on-chain in some form or another and the distinction will disappear.” Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev explains why this transition is taking so long: “I think the challenge with traditional finance — particularly on the infrastructure layer — is they have a lot of stakeholders, and if you think about where they generate the bulk of their revenue, it’s not from crypto-related initiatives. And a lot of these stakeholders, because they’re quite big, are going to be resistant and slower to adopt technologies. They’re going to be late adopters. They’re going to wait until it’s proven before adopting it, and that’s why we [Robinhood] have had to do greater vertical integration than we would normally want to do in TradFi. We acquired Bitstamp. We have our own exchange. And we have our own chain because I don’t think — to be at the frontier of crypto — you can rely on traditional infrastructure providers. I think they’ll get there eventually but it will take a very long time.” Ethereum will be the global settlement layer for this new financial system, and ETH will be its money. ETH is the base pair for trading on The Robinhood Chain, the highest volume asset, and the gas token to pay for blockspace. Source: TOKEN2049 (Oct 2025)
