.@0xMarcB got a lot of flak for saying the same thing “I started in a co-working space with 140 companies. Within 5 years, only 3 companies survived. They all worked on the weekends.” “Within 10 years, only 2 companies survived out of 140.” “Working weekends is a must if you want to survive. Purely statistically.”

Wait until the market learns that you can do almost all of this with one API: Open Money Stack. Wallets: Banks for agents: x402: Checkout:

Agents combined with wallets is the future of finance. The risk is: You don't want the agent to have full control of your wallet. With OMS Wallets this is a solved problem. Our smart wallets enforce agent limits on-chain, time-limited and with cumulative stablecoin budgets.

Local payments are your connection to customers. Digital dollars are your connection to a wider world of business. Open Money Stack brings both together, so you can get paid in one market and put that money to work in another.

under-marketed thing about Polygon right now: the team people ask me how you go from blockchain company to payments company. you hire exceptional people who’ve done it and are itching to do it differently. We’ve got people from: Stripe, Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Amex, Citi, Santander, Standard Chartered, Checkout, Ripple, MoneyGram, Lightspark, Nubank, Chime, Paxos, Nium, Bitso, Paysafe, Ava Labs, dYdX, OKX, Meta, Google, Amazon, McKinsey, BCG, Deloitte, PwC, KPMG Polygon has deep, deep expertise in crypto and now the payments knowledge to go with it. We announced Open Money Stack in January. An idea and a dream at the start of the year... 2 completed acquisitions later and a now moving volumes beyond what most on our team expected. the execution is insane. payments is massive, there will be many winners, and one of them should be the team that grew up in crypto, hired the best payments people, and is building all of it from the bottom up. the other option is a big enterprise charging 5% to use stablecoins it bolted onto an old system people in crypto love to hate on Polygon and i’ve never understood it. Polygon is the hometown kid of crypto. been here since the early days, took every hit, still showing up. we’re going to be around when the dust settles. Team Polygon.

Bank deposits on @ethereum. USDC-funded payouts. Regulated U.S. money movement. @jpmorgan, @Visa and @0xPolygon are tackling different pieces of business payments. Here’s what each launch changes—and who can use it. @money2020

Excited to launch CDK Besu: vanilla Hyperledger Besu, connected via Agglayer to L1 and every other Agglayer network. Bringing the power of a sovereign, zk-secured native bridge backed by pessimistic proofs to enterprise Besu chains.

Financial institutions have been using Hyperledger Besu for years. It has worked well for them, except that they are all disconnected. With Polygon CDK Besu, financial institutions can now connect their Besu chains with all other chains on Agglayer, providing the most secure form of cross-chain asset transfers. When spinning up this chain in the Polygon Open Money Stack, financial institutions also get access to ramps, wallets and other a broader interoperability set. Move all money onchain.
