Speaking of things changing the economic landscape, Stalker was interested to read about the ideas emanating from the Stripe Sessions Conference.
As we all know Stripe, the global payments system which grew from the minds of the Irish Collison brothers, is mega successful and has changed the international payments arena.
The company, according to Patrick Collison, is growing in payment volumes by as much as the EU economy in toto - $400 billion last year. Speaking of the dramatically changing landscape he mentioned Stablecoins and AI.
Stablecoins are crypto assets linked to the value of fiat currencies such as the US Dollar. “With stablecoins , it’s about real world utility in regular business.”
It’s all about borderless financial services these days it seems.
Funny how the word stable conjures its opposite at the same moment.
