Most well-funded stablecoin companies lean on their treasury to power through trading volume

"Let's do the easiest thing by just using our capital instead of actually building the operational efficiency behind the scenes."

"It's easier to [use your capital] instead of building e that allows you to do way more in terms of processing on the trading side without having to have that deep ammunition."

@HopInnovations took the opposite approach. They invested in the processing layer itself, building systems that handle volume without requiring a deep treasury to backstop them.

"I don't think it's necessary, and we've proven that it's not necessary." — @BTraidman

"We compete with companies that have raised 5 or 10 times what we have." says @BTraidman, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of @HopInnovations

"We're as tight as the tier one desks on pricing. We're as tight on the speed. We could take on any client size."

"I think we've chosen to build a profthat our team has experience. We've been doing this for a while."

"You do see some of these companies that raise a ton and use that as an advantage. But I think it might bite in the back, because it's gonna dry out at some point."

"You wanna use the capital [you've raised] to fuel the growth of the company"

As opposed to using it as a weapon to take out competitors.

"You need great founder-led sales. You need to hire salespeople. You need to invest in operational efficiency, compliance, the right astructure."

Not on subsidizing volume or buying market share, but on the things that make a company self-sufficient over time.

"We're investing on the infrastructure, licensing. We're investing on the things that are gonna make us a more valuable company in the future."

Ever wondered why companies are parking liquidity in stablecoins across 100 countries?

Instead of holding volatile local currencies and routing capital through correspondent banking chains, businesses are parking liquidity in stablecoins until they need to deploy it.

> Local curovernight
> Stablecoins settle in minutes, not days
> Convert to local currency only when needed
> Skip the chain of banks in between
> Money keeps earning instead of being stuck in transit
> One digital dollar works across every border
> Fewer bank accounts to manage across countries
> Treasury teams work from one shared system

One of the most comprehensive, interview led research reports on stablecoins/FX/payments. Glad to sponsor, thanks to all interviewees and Stabledash!
Real-world payments account for 29% of all stablecoin transactions.

Yet, only 11 cents of every dollar moved onchain goes toward real-world use.

This difference exists because moving tokens onchain is easy, but converting them after the transfer into spendable local currency payroll is not.

As @Mansa_mlk said, "A stablecoin is only as good as its ability to move in and out of the fiat currency that you want to get into."

Our latest Stabledash report, 𝗔𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗲𝗿, breaks down what it takes to make stablecoin payments globally usable

.@coinbase launched tokenized US stocks on @base on Monday. Thursday's show is a Tokenized Stock Special Edition - Coinbase, Bitwise and Glider back to back, starting 2:00 PM ET.

The full lineup for Thursday August 27th at 12:00 PM ET / 9:00 AM PT.

Stabledash Research, presented by @HopInnovations
- Santiago Alvarado, Co-Founder, @OfficialXFX - 12:30 PM ET

Interviews
- @louisabai, Head of Stablecoins, @Mysten_Labs - 1:00 PM ET
- Justin Wang, Founder, Capital Layer - 1:30 PM ET

Tokenized Stock Special Edition
- @antoniogm, Head of Growth, @base - 2:00 PM ET
- @BrianInCrypto, Co-Founder, @glider__ - 2:30 PM ET
- @Matt_Hougan, CIO, @Bitwise - 3:00 PM ET

The agenda:

XFX - Santiago Alvarado's founding team came out of Bitso, where they scaled the business unit to $8.5 billion in annualized volume. XFX is the liquidity layer for fiat and stablecoin FX. Live on the dollar, the Mexican peso and the Colombian peso.

Mysten Labs - gasless transfers as the most important piece of stablecoin infrastructure, built into Sui at the protocol layer rather than bolted on. Plus where Louisa sees the industry heading.

Capital Layer - Justin Wang thinks the next trillion in stablecoin volume comes out of Asian trade corridors, not US consumer fintech.

𝗧𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗘𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.
A stock onchain is only as good as what you can do with it.

Coinbase - Apple, Nvidia, Meta and Alphabet went live on Base Monday as B20 tokens, each backed one to one by a real share held at Alpaca. Antonio Garcia Martinez runs growth for Base. We get into what you can actually do with a stock once it's onchain.

Glider - automated trading of Coinbase's tokenized stocks. Brian Huang alluded to this on our show back in May. This week Glider launched automated portfolios with Bitwise on Base, rebalancing inside a wallet the user controls.

Bitwise - Automated Token Portfolios launched Tuesday, built on Coinbase's tokenized stocks and run by Glider. Mag7X is live now, with Robotics and AI Leaders to follow. At Breakpoint, Matt Hougan told us there was $680 million of tokenized stock against a $68 trillion equity market. This is Bitwise's work to close that gap.
