Day 1 of Stablecon is off to an amazing start!
Our CEO @zaidrmn joined the @meshpay team on stage for a panel on how stablecoins are shaping the future of mainstream finance.
Celebrity sighting at #StableCon# - the one and only @BrendanPedersen and @PunchbowlNews (makes me feel relevant 😂). Despite the headlines, #communitybanks# are doing some great things in the digital asset space and I’m proud to be a small part of it! @charlesepotts

Excited to connect at @thestablecon back home in DC with the @KASTxyz team.
Some thoughts --
1/ More providers launching niche angles for net new use cases
2/OCC charters are the new badge of honor
3/Coverage + consumer experience still matter more than rail commoditization
4/Seeing even more folks from my web2 days means the lines between the two are more blurred than ever
5/Everyone asking what @stripe and @Stablecoin are up to.. nice try.
Good to be home.

When @stablecoin met @thestablecon.
We spent the week exchanging ideas about stablecoins with some of the brightest minds in fintech.
A few highlights:
When launching USDC at @circle in 2018, @vishalkgupta reflects on how getting a panel on stablecoins was near impossible.
Now there are entirely Stablecoin dedicated conferences, look how far we have come 🫡

Still thinking about yesterday
Thanks for having us @thestablecon,and for giving us the stage to introduce the MoneyGram Card.
Now, time to see it in action.
An executive dinner where compliance met liquidity.

Takeaways/Reactions from StableCon:
1. Some people are shorter than I expected - a few are taller.
2. Oh - you do b2b stablecoin flows? Never heard of it!
3. More stablecoins are coming - both local currency and branded enterprise.
4. The news you see on X is only about 50% of what is really happening in the market.
5. The @thestablecon team knows how to get the right people, in the right place, at the right time.
6. I am but a humble puppet.
7. USDT and Tron still scare a lot of Western businesses - it shouldn't
8. The lines between different stables and different chains will be irrelevant (I'll make sure of it)
9. DC is a fantastic city
10. The industry is still SO small

We’re backstage at @thestablecon sitting down with the speakers as they come off stage. @unvested_ spoke with @ddisparte about whether the US needs a CBDC.
His answer? A US CBDC would be “against the American way of doing business.”
They discuss why stablecoins should remain privately issued, how regulation can provide the guardrails, and why clearer accounting standards could be an important step toward mainstream adoption.
