Excited to announce our investment in @ubyx_. @stablemaximus is building critical infrastructure that will help make stablecoin acceptance universal.
Two months ago, we released the Ubyx Whitepaper. Today, we announce a $10M seed round led by Galaxy Ventures, with participation from Coinbase Ventures, Founders Fund, VanEck, and industry stakeholders to deliver the global clearing system that will unlock stablecoin ubiquity.

Sending money shouldn’t be harder than sending a text. Stablecoins are the upgrade.
When payments people tell you we have 'instant' cross-border, they're lying. What we have: $25M pre-funded in foreign banks so transfers LOOK instant. Stablecoins will eliminate pre-funding entirely. Here's the phase transition most are missing 🧵.

Coinbase has been a founder factory. Why?. 1/ Risk tolerance (and push from @brian_armstrong) across new products, M&A, partnerships, and more.2/ Hiring that emphasizes "atypical" backgrounds (i.e., don't just hire from google/fb).3/ Deliberate effort to incubate and launch new.
Coinbase helped bring crypto mainstream – and our alumni are pushing the frontier even further. Great to have @brian_armstrong join 50+ former @Coinbase teammates-turned-founders now building the next wave of innovation.

Excited to support @psneville and the Catena team in building a new financial institution for the AI era!.
1/8 Big news from Catena Labs! We've secured $18M in funding, led by @a16zcrypto, to build an AI-native financial institution. Why? Because traditional financial systems are unprepared and resistant to AI, hindering the growth of the agent economy.
