Imagine finding Zebec at a few million, not $280M. That’s roughly where @pactfinance is now. Same payroll market. Much earlier price. @tether on the rails. @Payactiv on earned wage access. @Aptos as the chain. @BitGo on custody. $1.9B+ already processed. pactfoundation.com/

We built Steer so teams could take ideas like this to market. @EARNONHOOD is bringing automated liquidity strategies to tokenized stocks, and we’re proud to be the infrastructure they build on.

👀 I see you @IxsFinance recently following @EARNONHOOD ....defi on robinhood. Working with @steerprotocol 👀👀 $EARN $IXS #early

Kraken is quietly building one of the most vertically integrated financial companies in the world most people still think Payward = Kraken but look at what they’ve assembled: > Kraken: crypto exchange, spot trading, custody, staking, equities and institutional products > NinjaTrader: acquired for $1.5B, giving Payward nearly 2M futures traders + major US derivatives distribution > xStocks: tokenized equities, already crossed $10B in combined exchange + onchain volume within its first 6 months > Reap: acquired for $600M, adding global card issuance, stablecoin payments, cross border payments and treasury infrastructure > Magna: token infrastructure for vesting, distributions, claims, staking and treasury; previously supported $60B in peak TVL (did the TRUMP token launch) > Magic Labs: embedded wallet infrastructure that lets fintechs and apps create non custodial crypto wallets for users Kraken isn’t just a crypto exchange anymore Payward/Kraken has built a vertically integrated financial infrastructure empire across: crypto, stocks, tokenization, derivatives, cards, stablecoins, payments, custody and financial infrastructure they’ve acquired 7 companies in the last 12 months for a total of $2.75B every acquisition brings them closer to owning another piece of the financial stack insane execution

Regulatory Clarity is the Black Swan event for the Deep State Cartel. Narcissistic control freaks always project outwardly onto others what they believe internally - it’s a psychosis of “opposites” where good = bad and up = down. “Newspeak.” The Cartel has nothing left but the narrative of fear. They are no longer calling the shots. We choose faith or fear, wisdom or confusion, confidence or confusion. Stand or fold. Strong of weak. Luke warm is for losers.

Credit Unions will lead the way for America’s financial future. Money will begin to circulate locally again, empowering small business, and the common man. Blockchain is the permissionless rail that powers it.

نرحب بالتفاهم الذي توصل إليه البنك المركزي العراقي مع وزارة الخزانة الأمريكية، والذي يمثل خطوة مهمة في مسار إصلاح القطاع المصرفي وتعزيز اندماجه بالنظام المالي العالمي. إن تأهيل سبعة مصارف عراقية للعودة إلى قنوات المراسلة المصرفية الخارجية بالعملات الأخرى، تمهيداً لاستعادة أهليتها للتعامل بالدولار الأمريكي، بعد استكمال متطلبات الامتثال والحوكمة، يؤكد نجاح نهج الإصلاح المالي الذي تتبناه الحكومة، ويعزز الثقة بالقطاع المصرفي العراقي ويفتح آفاقاً أوسع أمام الاقتصاد الوطني والاستثمار. سنواصل دعم الإصلاحات المالية والمصرفية، وترسيخ مبادئ الشفافية والحوكمة، بما يخدم مصالح العراق ويعزز مكانته الاقتصادية إقليمياً ودولياً.

making $1 million per year is a lot simpler than most people think. all you have to do is take $30 million dollars, put it in t-bills and with a 3.5% yield you're making $1 million per year. don't overthink it.

🎥WATCH: ROBINHOOD UNVEILS PLANS TO ROLL OUT AGENTIC TRADING FOR CRYPTO Robinhood says AI agents will soon be able to trade crypto through dedicated U.S. accounts using its Trading MCP infrastructure, with users being able to set predefined spending limits. The feature follows the rollout of agentic stock and options trading earlier this year and will be offered at no additional cost.

Who made this?? 🤣🤣🤣

BE PATIENT, sometimes GOD makes us wait longer because the blessing is bigger. #XRP

In the 90s, the internet was new. Almost every idea seemed plausible. 100s of companies achieved $500M to $1B valuations on the heels of possibility. In the early 2000s, the optimism had burst. No longer did 100s of companies have a bid. Instead, fewer companies that *proved* their merits, flourished. And because they succeeded on demonstrable merits, they ran for longer and got bigger than the prior cycle. This transition is underway in crypto. There will be fewer winners. But the winners will be riding demonstrable merits. They will be bigger and run for longer than people expect.

In just a few years, I’ve: - Built a multi-million dollar crypto startup: Metal Pay - Launched a VC Firm - Ran a marijuana drone delivery service - Introduced the Crypto-Currency Act of 2020 - Launched my own Crypto Exchange - Created my own token: Proton Here’s why:

𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟬: @SECGov sues @Ripple ‼️ Billions wiped from the market. Exchanges rush to delist $XRP. Fear, uncertainty, and panic grip the community as the price collapses and many declare @Ripple finished 😱 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲: @Ripple has 75+ licenses worldwide, including a New York Trust Charter from @NYDFS - widely regarded as one of the most difficult financial licenses to obtain in the world. Regulation by @TheFCA, a full EU EMI license under MiCA, an @USOCC conditional approval for Ripple National Trust Bank, and a @federalreserve master account application pending - with Trump’s new EO directing the Fed to open its payment rails to crypto firms. #RLUSD from $0 to $1.5B+ in a year - with reserves custodied by @BNYglobal – the bank safeguarding $57 trillion in assets. Nearly $3B in acquisitions: @HiddenRoadHQ, clearing $3 trillion a year for 300+ institutions. @GTreasury, handling $12.5 trillion in payment volume for Fortune 500s. Rail, processing 10% of global B2B stablecoin flows. Inside @The_DTCC, Tokenisation working group designing the standards for the entity settling $4.7 QUADRILLION a year. Powering @Mastercard AI agent payments via #XRPL and #RLUSD. The Clarity Act is now on the Senate floor with a July 4th signing target setting the stage for regulatory clarity at the highest level. Capping it all off with a $50B valuation 😏 From fear, lawsuits, delistings, and multiple market crashes… to securing one of the world’s most difficult financial licenses, National Trust Bank approval, and becoming one of the most strategically positioned companies in global finance. @bgarlinghouse well done 👏🏽

🔥 In just a few days, the Government Dashboard proposal has already reached 237 votes and over 6% quorum. That's not just engagement, that's proof that community governance works. I also want to give credit to the $DAG Nation, especially @Dagnum_PI. It's easy to ask for an integration. It's different when you consistently show up in spaces, learn about @MetallicusTDBN, explore @XPRNetwork dApps, and put in the work. That level of effort doesn't go unnoticed. Adding $DAG to @LOAN_Protocol isn't just about another asset, it's about bringing together two communities focused on building real utility. If you haven't voted yet, make your voice heard.

Everyone is asking what happens when DTCC puts $114 trillion on the blockchain. Let me explain what DTCC actually is first. -Depository. -Trust & -Clearing. -Corporation. Every time you buy a stock — Apple, Tesla, anything — DTCC is the invisible hand that settles it. Not your broker. Not the stock exchange. DTCC. $2.5 quadrillion in transactions annually. $114 trillion in custody. They are the plumbing underneath every stock trade in America. Here's what nobody talking about the XLM or XRP price target understands. DTCC doesn't move $114 trillion every day. That $114 trillion sits in a vault. What actually moves is settlement — the transfer of ownership. And before settlement even happens DTCC does something called multilateral netting. 1 million people buy Apple. 800,000 people sell Apple. Same day. DTCC doesn't process 1.8 million transactions. It nets them down to the difference. 98% of gross volume disappears before a single token touches it. So when someone asks Grok what XLM is worth if it captures $114 trillion — That's not the question. The question is what fraction of what's left after netting needs a bridge. And the answer to that question is split across multiple assets, multiple corridors, multiple chains. No single token captures the entire DTCC market. Not XLM. Not XRP. Not CC. What gets captured is a role in the plumbing. The infrastructure being built right now is deciding who plays which role. We audit the plumbing 🛡 Oh and just a hint – DTCC already told you who they picked. Patent US 2025/0078162 A1. Filed in public. 🤫
