Ours is a labor of love at @circle and I truly love what we do and why we do it. Because nothing worth doing is worth doing alone, we are proud to contribute to more inclusive financial access around the world with $USDC.

Circle @circle Dec 5, 2023

For the first time in history, we can activate the full economic potential of humanity thanks to digital dollars like $USDC. See how USDC might be the secret to financial inclusion.

Very good episode of Currency of Power 👏:
Marieke Flament with @ddisparte , @circle 's Chief Strategy Officer.

He has united Washington twice, he says, once against Libra, once behind the GENIUS Act.

The line I'm keeping:
"Money fundamentally is a trust-based business."
Libra had the tech, not the trust.

The title says it all:
software will trade with software. Agents already settle in USDC. The open question is who answers for a payment when an agent gets it wrong.

@mariekeflament this is now my favorite interview of all times. You left no stone unturned.

Loved doing this interview for @CurrenPower with @ddisparte from @circle!

We covered a lot of important ground in 1h and talked about,

- Why Libra/Diem failed
- “To CBDC or not to CBDC”
- The GENIUS Act, the (for now failed) CLARITY Act and what the midterms could mean for crypto
- Stablecoins as dollar statecraft
- The US–China–Europe split
- Europe and the euro, MiCA and the Draghi test
- Agentic AI and stablecoins
- Circle’s next 5–10 years

Financial crime moves at machine speed. Collective defense must do the same.

The @binance incident underscores the need for real-time coordination, legal clarity, and due process.

Open systems require open coordination. My latest reflections:

I shared my perspective on what the midterm electoral outcome means for crypto with @CNBC's @tanayamacheel.

“With this midterm election result, folks need to see that they have some equity in this process, that they have their interests represented in this process, and therefore it may take longer to get Clarity tabled again,” he said. “But I wouldn’t characterize it as bad – that’s been frankly too reflexive a response from industry and from other players … Crypto is purple.”

He also pointed to the Genius Act, the “roundly bipartisan” stablecoin legislation passed into law last year and set to take effect in January. The law is a significant policy advancement, he said, “that [the Democrats] will feel 1, ownership over and 2, recognition of, considering so many of them have been in the crucible of public policy debates on what good looks like.”
