“Why not emulate the experience on WhatsApp? That human experience, but enabling the convenience of digital payment.”
@manueljgodoym joins @chuk_xyz and @rajparekh on Money Code to explain how @Felixpago found product-market fit after realizing WhatsApp was already part of how customers completed a remittance.
By moving the transaction into the same WhatsApp flow users already used, Felix turned a familiar remittance handoff into the product itself.

Latin America has become one of stablecoins’ strongest markets. So why haven’t local-currency stablecoins broken through?
On the latest episode of Stable Pulse Policy Beat, Andrew Van Aken @ElBarto_Crypto of @artemis joins Justin Friedman, Head of Policy at @thestablecon, and Sanjib Kalita, President of Stablecon, to discuss what’s holding local stablecoin issuance back across Latin America.
“Once that policy comes into place, I think you’re gonna see some real interest in local issuance in Latin American currencies.”
Justin points to the GENIUS Act as a U.S. example of how clearer rules around reserves, audits and redemption can build confidence in stablecoins.
Clearer rules could unlock more local-currency stablecoin issuance across Latin America, giving businesses a way to bring payments and settlement onchain while keeping flows denominated in domestic currency.

“Customers are expecting for their money to be able to move wherever and whenever they want it to move.”
Denise Leonhard, General Manager of @Zelle, on the efficiency of global, 24/7 stablecoin payments.
Is 24/7 becoming the new minimum for payments?
Visa is deepening its push into crypto with over 160 active stablecoin card programs.
The networks' annualized stablecoin settlement volume surpassed $20 billion (up 15x year-over-year).
To scale further, @Visa is partnering with blockchain lender @creditcoop_xyz, leveraging VisaNet payment data to provide stablecoin credit lines to card issuers—helping partners lower daily settlement borrowing costs by up to 30%.
An OCC charter can expand a fintech’s reach while giving regulators more say over how it grows.
@davidmarcus, CEO and Co-founder of @lightspark, joins @DanteReminick on Stable Pulse: What’s Next Beat with a contrarian take on OCC charters.
“A lot of them are actually going to be in some sort of penalty box.”
Deposit caps, product restrictions and tighter supervision can turn a licensing advantage into a constraint on the roadmap.
For stablecoin and payments companies, choosing a regulatory structure also means deciding how much control over the business ultimately sits with the regulator.

Stablecon USA
📅 September 9-10
📍 Washington, DC.
there's a lot of noise in this space
someone on here once referred to it as "proof of PR"
under all the hype theres some big moves being made that don't get the headlines
had a call with a sponsor bank settling about $80m daily for its fintech partners
they are looking to switch it all to stablecoins for daily settlement to reduce collateral/prefunding reqs with card networks
institutions are starting to move real volume on-chain
not pilots, not press releases
We thought Stablecon USA was where the future of money gets settled.
Apparently, it’s also where Sanjib and Dov are settling a much more important question: who owns the dance floor?
The trash talk has started. The mustaches are ready.
Who are you backing: LinkedIn guru Dov or Stablecon President Sanjib?
The feud gets settled live at Stablecon USA on September 9.
“The capital was never the product. Holding float is that cost of doing the job. It’s not the job actually.”
Pritpal Shokar, Head of Product for Digital Assets at @ThunesPayments, joins @chuk_xyz and @rajparekh on the latest episode of Money Code to explain why real-time funding can make a global cross-border payment network more capital light.
For Thunes, moving toward just-in-time funding means less capital committed to pre-positioned float, while the network’s reach, orchestration, compliance and reliability remain what customers are paying for.
As stablecoin funding moves closer to real time, payment networks can support more volume with less balance sheet tied up across markets.

“You had billions of dollars literally that came to Base to compete, to give the best possible rates to Coinbase users.”
@PaulFrambot, Co-Founder and CEO of @Morpho, joins @bamazizimesh on Stable Pulse: CEO Beat to discuss what @coinbase’s move to onchain lending reveals about open credit infrastructure.
Onchain credit can open borrower demand to a broader network of lenders without changing the customer experience.
For Coinbase, moving lending onchain didn’t change the product users saw. It opened borrower demand to a broader market of lenders competing on price.

“We’re not trying to reinvent how people pay. We’re reinventing how businesses fund payments.”
Harris Leow of @ReapGlobal joins @MayaCaddle on the latest episode of Mint Condition to explain what changes when businesses can use stablecoins as collateral to support card spending.
For businesses, separating collateral from spending means finance teams can decide what assets to hold without having to continually convert and reposition that capital every time it needs to support card spend.
