On November 18, 1883, America lived through the same noon twice, because the railroads decided the country could no longer run on thousands of local clocks. The law caught up 35 years later. Finance is at the same moment now. Read the full story below.

I explained the RCS thrusters puffs to my young daughter as little "farts" to adjust attitude. It worked.

On today's Vibestream at 12pm ET, we're getting into the weeds on institutional crypto lending with Sam MacPherson (@hexonaut) of @sparkfinance, Anchorage Digital's Head of Atlas @maceyaj and Global Head of Revenue Justin Brill. This is going to be good.

Cross-chain functionality for stablecoins issued through Anchorage Digital Bank, N.A., built on @LayerZero_Core's OFT standard.

Infrastructure partnerships make financial industry grow faster and go further.

Money has finally caught up to the speed of the internet.

A big stage for big ideas. Stablecoins and traditional correspondent banking aren't opposing systems. Our Global Head of Stablecoin Solutions @sergiofly was in Tashkent this week to discuss how Anchorage Digital is connecting Central Asia to global markets.

Apparently the BIS is a huge fan of the Genius Act! Why do I say that? Well, at Jackson hole, the head of the BIS, De Cos, basically called out the problems with stablecoins as: 1 - Singleness (e.g. par redeemability) 2 - Interoperability 3 - Financial Integrity What is fascinating about this is that the entire critique only applies to pre-Genius stablecoins! Perhaps that is why he is making it now? Under Genius, redemption is guaranteed, there are interoperability standards, and the financial integrity is stronger, not weaker, than that of fractional reserve banks relying on an insurance fund that can barely cover a single percentage point of outstanding deposits, if that. Many of the past issues with "stablecoins" are real, but Congress just slammed the door in their face and now rules are almost final. In fact, if you look at the NYDFS regime, much of which parallels what is in Genius, there have been zero peg stability problems with the stablecoins and no reserve issues in the history of regulated stablecoins in NY, which includes the third largest stablecoin to have existed ($BUSD). De Cos seems to have implied, perhaps inadvertently, that Genius stablecoins are a better, not worse, form of money than traditional bank deposits with his critique! Funny how that works.

Tune in next week.... @Anchorage and @m0 having a chat!

Global trade grew because borders got easier to cross. Finance is going through the same shift right now, and stablecoins are the mechanism. Regulated stablecoins under GENIUS give companies outside finance the same access financial players have: dollars that move globally, settle instantly, and belong to the issuer. We made a short film on where this goes.

The GENIUS Act was the beginning, not the finish line. One year later, it’s time to build on that momentum with market structure legislation that keeps innovation and leadership in the U.S. Read @Anchorage Digital's CEO's (@nathanmccauley) latest here: washingtonexaminer.com/op-ed…

CLARITY is the name of the game this week in Washington. One year after the GENIUS Act, it’s time to build on the momentum with market structure legislation for digital assets. My op-ed for Washington Examiner ↓

⚽ @Starlink saves the day. Travelling through Italy, trying to watch the world cup final, and this sports bar was left stranded with a n overloaded Internet connection. So I spun up my Starlink's reliable network link and we all watched the final in HD. And I got free drinks.

As the issuer of USDGO, we're proud to see it reach $1 billion in circulation. Built under US federal oversight, 1:1 backed and audited — proof that a digital dollar built on a bank-grade, compliant foundation can scale. Congrats to @osldotcom!

🚀 USDGO has officially crossed US$1 BILLION in circulating supply. From zero to US$1B in just 5 months — a ~20x trajectory since launch. This pace isn't speculative hype. It's real institutional demand: platforms & enterprises holding a fully compliant stablecoin as a trusted store of value. 🧵👇

$1B in circulating supply for USDGO. 🎉 @usdgo_official A compliant, enterprise-grade digital dollar is the settlement asset at the center of everything we're building at OSL — from stablecoin payments to on/off-ramps. Issued by @Anchorage, built on @solana. Held by institutions today; powering payments next. Proud of the team. 👇

🇺🇸 Happy to be on Capitol Hill today with @RachelAnderika celebrating the first anniversary of the GENIUS act passing! We’re here thanking members of Congress for their hard work on GENIUS. The GENIUS Act was a historic unlock. The CLARITY Act can be the next unlock for driving financial innovation here in America.

Here's what happened @ethena in June: • Partnered with @BlackRock with USDe now integrated into BlackRock Aladdin which houses $25t of AUM. • Partnered with @RobinhoodApp as the primary collateral in their new crypto earn product. • Partnered with @coinbase to grow onchain finance and savings products. • Coinbase Ventures made its first open-market investment into Ethena. • The USDe vault on Coinbase grew to nearly 200m in a few weeks. • @stablecoin_x began trading on Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker "USDE", giving public-market investors direct access to the Ethena ecosystem. • Published our plan for the next phase of USDe backing diversification, broadening real-world asset exposure beyond tokenized T-Bills. • Partnered with JanusHenderson to allocate and support distribution of their tokenized, high-quality liquid CLO funds. • Integrated JAAA, Janus Henderson's AAA CLO strategy, into USDe's backing through a partnership with @Centrifuge. • Integrated STAC, the Securitize Tokenized AAA CLO Fund, into USDe's backing through a partnership with @Securitize. • Expanded our partnership with @Anchorage to advance institutional investment lending. • @MercadoBitcoin, Brazil's largest exchange, listed USDe. • Became a founding member of the @Avax Payments Collective. • @kamino went live with Sentora's PYUSD/USDe vault.

Another milestone for USDGO. 👏 As its partner ecosystem expands, USDGO continues to gain momentum across enterprise and institutional use cases. Proud to support the growth of regulated stablecoin infrastructure for faster, more efficient global money movement.

I wish I could tag all my tremendous co-panelists here but I don't know their X handles. More importantly, tokenized money is inevitable and the money flower will soon blossom into a new form.
