🎙 Episode 1 Is Live: Visa x WeFi This is a major milestone for us. Our first official podcast with Visa is now live, and we’re opening with one of the most important conversations in modern finance: stablecoins and the convergence of traditional payments and crypto. The conversation features Alexandra Soroko, Growth Product & Partnerships at Visa, and Michael Batuev, Head of Global Payments at WeFi. 👉 This episode goes beyond surface level commentary. We explore how Visa views stablecoins not as a passing trend, but as infrastructure. While they still represent less than 1 percent of global money flows, their efficiency, speed, and programmability position them as a powerful new layer in how money moves globally. Visa has been observing and building in crypto since 2018. Innovation at that scale requires navigating regulation, technology, and multiple geographies. But when they integrate something new, it connects to a network of more than 150 million merchants worldwide. That scale turns innovation into real world access. A key theme in the discussion is convergence. Fintech companies like WeFi move fast, design around users, and ship quickly. Global payment networks bring distribution, resilience, and trust. The future is not about replacement. It is about combining strengths. Will stablecoins replace fiat? Unlikely. The strongest innovations coexist and enhance what already exists. Stablecoins can evolve into a powerful financial rail while remaining connected to established payment systems, making them usable in everyday life. At WeFi, we are at the forefront of this movement. By working within established infrastructure like Visa and building products designed around real user needs, we are helping bring stablecoins from theory into practical, global utility. Digital assets are no longer on the fringe. They are entering the core of global finance. Episode 1 is just the beginning. Watch now and be part of the conversation shaping the next chapter of payments 🌍

EXCLUSIVE: Morpho 🦋 CEO Paul Frambot 🦋 on how Morpho Midnight is new infrastructure for institutional private credit. This week, Morpho launched Midnight, which enables fixed-rate, fixed-term onchain lending, starting with one cbBTC/USDC market on Base across multiple maturities. This is unlike most DeFi today, where protocols like Aave and Compound set your risk, rate, and term using their formulas. This is not ideal for large institutions with their own risk appetite. Morpho 🦋 Midnight hands risk, rate AND term to the open market, so investors can set their risk appetite, and borrowers can apply to meet that in the marketplace. Lending on Midnight means buying a claim on future cashflows, where you pay 0.95 today, receive 1.00 at maturity. The difference (discount) is your rate as a lender. That's exactly how a zero-coupon bond works, the primitive bond markets are built on. Some other nuances that came out in the interview Prior fixed-rate protocols split liquidity into a pool per maturity, so markets stayed thin and most died. This is how a bond desk runs a book. Morpho aims to ensure liquidity isn't fragmented into individual pools. It offers source funds only at fill, and one balance sheet can quote fixed rates across all maturities at once. So you quote once in many places. The fees are capped in the code with settlement at 50bps a year, a lender fee at 1%, and governance can *never* raise them. Infrastructure that can't reprice you is infrastructure a treasurer can underwrite. Wall St is coming to these DeFi protocols For example, Apollo (roughly $940bn AUM) is contracted to buy up to 9% of MORPHO supply over four years. So I sat down with Paul Frambot, Morpho's CEO, days after his most ambitious launch yet. DeFi lending reached tens of billions without a single maturity date. Now we find out what it builds with one.

Wishing our partners in the US a Happy Thanksgiving. 🤗Today we are sharing the interview we filmed with 🪏Blockjock-James Dont Hate Just Create from USDM and our CEO and Stig Stig A Kjos-Mathisen at Cardano Summit Berlin. Since recording, USDM won the Stablecoin Award for best stablecoin at the Summit, adding even more weight to the partnership. What began as a small pilot in early 2024 has now become a multi million dollar stablecoin with real traction on Cardano. We talk transparency, the Oracle that publishes reserves twice a day, the Marketing Investment Program with DeFi protocols, and the work on global fiat rails and large scale cash off ramps. Strong collaboration on both sides of the Atlantic. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating. 🎉 USDM on Cardano

**The Call from the China GCV CT Committee!** **All Global Pioneers Unite for the Pi Stablecoin GCV!** Hello, Pi family members! Teacher Dongfang is calling on all pioneers around the world to participate in an exciting activity: Please take a screenshot of yourself buying Pi on the exchange (without showing your face) and shout: "Exchange, buy Pi, hoard Pi! PiGCV stablecoin! PiGCV stablecoin! PiGCV stablecoin!" Record a video of about 10 seconds, and send it to this group. Through our GCV community in China, we will also share it across major platforms like Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Kuaishou, and Douyin. Let's promote and build momentum to expand our influence! Our goal is to attract more people to participate in buying and hoarding Pi, showing governments and organizations interested in stablecoins the strength of our PiGCV community. We want the world to recognize that: **Pi is the most popular stablecoin, providing real GCV value.** Since the Toronto meeting from May 14 to May 16, the dialogue about global stablecoins has become increasingly prominent. This is a crucial step to address the human economy and the global economic crisis. Recently, the Hong Kong Stablecoin Live Conference took place, and the U.S. abolished regulations on cryptocurrency exchanges within the banking and financial sectors by passing the "Genius Act." This legislation means that the $6.5 trillion U.S. debt due at the end of June must be legally addressed using cryptocurrencies, aiming to resolve the global economic crisis rooted in this debt. Discussions at the White House roundtable have included Bitcoin as a potential stablecoin, yet the conclusion remains unsettled due to insufficient market value. Not only is the U.S. pursuing stablecoins, but other countries are also exploring their options. The demand for stablecoins is rampant, especially in the United States. A phenomenon known as "Pi" is making waves globally, with its technology, user base, total nodes, application scenarios, and robust GCV consensus community all making it a noteworthy contender in the cryptocurrency space. This rising interest in global stablecoins presents Pi with a unique opportunity to become a recognized stablecoin. However, we must actively work towards this goal. This is why Mr. Dongfang has initiated the short video activity of buying and hoarding Pi on the exchange. **We all have Pi in our hands, and together we can make a difference!** Therefore, we urge everyone in our group to participate actively. Share your screenshots of buying Pi on the exchange and shout: "Exchange, buy Pi, hoard Pi! PiGCV stablecoin! PiGCV stablecoin! PiGCV stablecoin!" Record a short video (no face needed) and send it to this group. With the collective strength of our GCV community, we will share widely across major media platforms. Let’s promote, build momentum, and enhance the visibility of the PiGCV stablecoin. Let’s work together to launch the PiGCV stablecoin on the main network as soon as possible! Take action now for the Pi in your hands to become the PiGCV stable currency! **Get started!** **China GCV CT Publicity Director** Fire Dragon May 22, 2025

.Sam Broner spent years at a16z crypto studying hundreds of stablecoin-focused startups. Mature fintechs, banks weighing their stablecoin strategy, early teams pitching infrastructure plays. The one pattern that kept surfacing: stablecoins were built for trading, not payments. Before a16z, Broner was an engineer at Microsoft, where he built the Fluid Framework that helped re-platform Word from desktop to browser. He demoed for Bill Gates two weeks into the project. Spent time at the Boston Fed's stablecoin initiative during MIT Sloan, angel invested in Cursor before most people had heard of it, and kept circling back to the same problem: moving from one stablecoin to another still works like a trade, not a payment. That's when he founded The Better Money Company - a stablecoin clearinghouse. Any stablecoin in, any stablecoin out, at a fixed price, with a guaranteed time of delivery. Its member issuers include Bridge, Paxos Labs, Agora, M0, MoonPay 🟣, brale, and Frax Finance ¤⛓️¤. Clients include Ramp, Privy, Turnkey 🔑, and Modern Treasury. The Better Money Company raised $10 million from a16z crypto, BoxGroup, and Sunflower Capital, and came out of stealth last week. Broner's point is simple. You don't sell Wells Fargo dollars at a variable price to get Bank of America dollars. Stablecoins shouldn't work that way either.

Swift is adopting crypto rails without touching crypto "Swift moves money between 11,000 banks worldwide, and it does it at the speed of a slug. Anybody who has ever used the Swift network knows that it doesn't operate 24/7, 365 like crypto. They take days off and hours off, and it's extremely slow" "Any time you try to move money through the legacy financial system, there's toll collectors in the middle, and complications and problems. Well, they ain't using crypto, and they ain't using stablecoins, but they are using the underlying technology and building their own network" "These aren't stablecoins. These are basically tokenized deposits that they will be moving from bank to bank, adopting our rails to do this better, faster, and cheaper. That is the theme of the day"

DROPS E34: Plasma - Stablecoins Will Outgrow Crypto zaheer is Chief Strategy Officer at Plasma.

🚨 BREAKING: Gusto just added stablecoin payouts for international contractors via ZeroHash - 400,000+ SMBs. - Tens of billions in annual payroll. - Now gets Settlement in minutes, not days. Stablecoins as an instant payouts feature for international contracts is becoming table stakes. And that's a big market. --- This is labor market math, not crypto hype. Full-time independent contractors doubled in 4 years. 13.6M in 2020 → 27.7M in 2024. 11% of US small businesses now employ international contractors. Traditional cross-border payroll takes 3-7 days. That's a week of "payment in transit" while your contractor in Argentina waits to pay rent. --- Zerohash powers this integration. Same infrastructure behind Stripe's stablecoin flows, BlackRock's tokenized fund rails, and Morgan Stanley's upcoming E-Trade crypto trading. Mastercard is reportedly circling them at $1.5-2B. --- Tempo's docs nail why this matters for payroll: "Businesses must either rely on slow, expensive, unpredictable cross-border transfers to pay employees directly, or first move liquidity to local subsidiaries to access domestic payment rails. Each domestic rail comes with its own rules, banking holidays, cutoff times, formats, and fees." That's the patchwork stablecoins replace. One ledger. Sub-cent fees. Seconds to settle. --- Gusto serves mainstream small business America. When your accountant's payroll software starts settling on blockchain rails, the infrastructure debate is over. Stablecoins aren't replacing payroll. They're replacing the 3-7 day settlement window that banks built for a workforce that no longer exists. --- #Fintech #Stablecoins #Payments #FutureOfWork #GigEconomy

We knew from day one that unlocking constellation-scale manufacturing would be more than just a hardware challenge. That's why we built Octopus — our proprietary operating system, developed in-house to handle the many complexities of rapidly scaling satellite manufacturing. Octopus provides an end-to-end source of truth, from first customer conversation to orbit, enabling streamlined traceability that ensures speed never comes at the expense of quality. Octopus is built on Palantir's Foundry and AIP platforms, which provide the underlying infrastructure to rapidly prototype and deploy custom applications across the entire company. By building Octopus on Palantir, we have unified scheduling, procurement, receiving, inspection, inventory management, and production into a single integrated workflow — enabling predictable and secure, constellation-scale production. Hear from Apex CEO, Ian Cinnamon, and the rest of the team on how Apex's partnership with Palantir is unlocking rate production at Factory One, and laying the foundation for the next generation of satellite manufacturing.

Tokenization as Infrastructure, Not a Shortcut In this clip, André Casterman explains why tokenization is best understood as an upgrade to the internet’s financial infrastructure, not a guarantee of liquidity or success. Tokenization does not create demand on its own. Liquidity still matters. What it does change is the efficiency of how value moves. Cheaper settlement. Faster transfer. Native verifiability. Stablecoins are a clear example. Instead of routing payments through correspondent banking and local clearing entities, value can move directly by transferring tokens. The asset does not need to be physically moved or reconciled across jurisdictions. The result is lower cost and less friction. Verifiability is the real unlock. Unlike physical assets, which require costly and invasive processes to prove authenticity, tokenized assets can be verified on-chain, publicly, and without altering the asset itself. This is the shift from moving information to moving value. Tokenization is not a product. It is infrastructure. And infrastructure is what enables real-world use at scale. — André Casterman 🇦🇪

$Last week, Mastercard, Visa, Ripple & Coinbase 🛡️ all shipped payment rails for AI agents. Every one of them reached for stablecoins Instead of traditional cards. A choice that is the whole story 👇🏻 ◢ An unpriced problem Card networks are built around a human pressing approve. One purchase, one confirmation, a fee that only makes sense above a certain size. Agents don’t work like that. They pay continuously, programmatically, often in fractions of a cent, for things like an API call or a second of compute. A bot paying $0.004 a thousand times an hour is a transaction pattern the card model physically can’t process at a profit. The rails we built for people don’t fit the machines. ◢ Four giants, one answer On june 3 mastercard opened card settlement in stablecoins across eight chains. On june 10 it launched Agent Pay for Machines, letting agents settle in stablecoins with permissions recorded onchain. The same day, ripple shipped a toolkit putting RLUSD and the x402 standard under agent payments, visa announced an agentic commerce tie-up with openai, and coinbase switched on agentic trading. Four of the biggest names in payments moved in a single week and all landed on the same primitive. ◢ Why it had to be stablecoins Strip out the branding and the requirements are mechanical. The money has to be programmable, so code can hold and move it without a bank in the loop. It has to clear sub-cent payments, which card fees make impossible. It also has to settle in seconds with finality, because that’s the speed agents run at. And it has to be always on, because machines don’t take weekends. A dollar in a bank account fails most of those, while a dollar as a stablecoin passes all of them. ◢ Conclusive Insights For years stablecoins were pitched at consumers who already had working banks and mostly didn’t bite. The adoption story kept underdelivering because the product was aimed at the wrong buyer. The agent economy doesn’t have that problem. It has no legacy banking relationship, no human patience, and no other option that clears at machine speed. The demand that stablecoins were always promised is finally showing up, but not from the customer everyone expected. My take: the entire stablecoin debate was framed around human payments, which is why it kept stalling.$
