Who is building the best b2b product that turns any app (think brokerage, neobank, et al) w stablecoin support in to a monetizable payments wallet? Similar to the way debit cards from MC / Visa were layered on top of every fintech or store of value over the last decade. @mdudas.

Paxos supports the upcoming cloture vote on the GENIUS Act. It’s time for a federal framework for stablecoins and this is an important step forward. We thank @SenatorHagerty, @SenLummis, @gillibrandny and all the other offices involved for their leadership. 🇺🇸.

.@matt_levine said it best in Money Stuff: "The old model of stablecoins is a ludicrous business: You take tens of billions of dollars from institutional investors, you invest it however you want, and you keep all the interest. That was great, but it probably can't last.".
