Stripe has established itself as a leading payment solution for both enterprises as well as startups and individual sellers. By abstracting away all the complexities of traditional payment rails through simple plug-and-play APIs, Stripe created a facile route for cross-border payments, simplifying e-commerce. Similarly, Stripe's recent integration of stablecoins could further bolster the adoption of decentralised payment solutions, be them USD or other currency proxies. This allows businesses to reach more markets, at a lower cost, with near-instantaneous settlement.Topics covered in this episode:John's backgroundStripe's missionHow Stripe solves the complexity of internet paymentsIntegrating crypto for paymentsSupported blockchainsStripe's Web3 servicesUpsides of accepting stablecoin paymentsNon-USD stablecoinsMerchant UXExpanding crypto support outside the U.S.On- and off-rampingAcquiring Bridge and PrivyThe best of both worlds: CeFi & DeFiEpisode links:John Egan on XStripe on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

本期关键词： USDT、USDC、稳定币区别 美元-稳定币-美债 普通人如何投资稳定币 Q：“稳定币”是什么？ 是一种特殊类型的加密货币，其价值通常锚定某种法定货币(如美元、欧元)或大宗商品(如黄金)，旨在解决传统加密货币价格波动剧烈的问题，为数字资产市场提供稳定的价值储存和交易媒介。 Q：它有什么用途？ 交易媒介（支付/汇款）、避险工具（对抗本币贬值）、DeFi基础资产。 69%的用户使用稳定币进行货币替代(特别是在高通胀国家)，39%用于商品服务支付，39%用于跨境汇款，20-30%用于薪酬支付。 在技术性能方面，基于Solana等高性能区块链的稳定币转账成本可低至0.00025美元，结算时间从传统跨境汇款的5个工作日缩短至几分钟，成本从平均6.35%降至接近零。 Q：稳定币如何保持价格稳定？ 1、法币抵押型（USDT/USDC）：1:1储备美元资产，靠套利者平衡市价（若USDT＜1美元，买入赎回套利）。 2、加密抵押型（DAI）：抵押ETH等资产（价值＞150%债务），自动清算防暴跌。 3、算法型（已崩溃的韩国Luna）：依赖供需算法和套利激励（失败）。 Q：为什么美国政府积极支持稳定币？ 从地缘分布看，稳定币市场呈现明显的”美元霸权”特征——95%的稳定币锚定美元，且这些稳定币80%的储备资金又回流投资美国国债，使稳定币发行商成为美债市场的重要买家。 这种”美元-稳定币-美债”的循环机制，实际上强化了美元在全球货币体系中的主导地位。 随着美国《GENIUS法案》等监管框架的出台，稳定币发行商被要求以至少1:1的比例持有美元现金或93天内到期的美国国债作为储备。 Q：Tether公司有多赚钱？ Tether Holdings作为稳定币市场的绝对主导者，创造了一套独特而高效的盈利模式，使其在2024年仅凭165名员工就实现了惊人的130亿美元净利润，相当于人均创利8000万美元，这一数字超过了花旗集团等传统金融巨头的盈利水平。 Tether的商业模式核心在于其发行的USDT稳定币与美元1:1锚定的机制。当用户将美元存入Tether账户时，公司会发行等值的USDT并发送到用户钱包；当用户赎回USDT时，Tether则销毁代币并返还美元，同时收取0.1%的手续费(上限1000美元)。 这一看似简单的流程背后隐藏着极为高效的金融套利机制：Tether通过发行USDT获得的美元资金无需向持有者支付利息，却可以将这些资金投资于美国短期国债等生息资产，赚取全部投资收益。 Q：稳定币匿名性强吗？ 不强。USDT交易高度可追踪，尤其在ERC-20/TRC-20链上。增强匿名性：需额外技术手段（如混币器、隐私链），但可能面临法律风险。 Q：普通人如何用稳定币赚钱？ 1、低风险： 交易所活期理财（币安USDT年化3~5%）； 国债代币化产品（如Matrixdock，年化4.2%）。 2、高风险： DeFi质押（如Curve池年化8~15%，有无常损失风险）。 Q：如果美国没收Tether的国债储备，USDT会崩盘吗？ 可能性低：Tether已将部分储备分散至黄金、比特币，且美债清算需国会授权。 Q：人民币稳定币能挑战USDT吗？ 短期难：需突破资本管制+提升离岸人民币流动性+市场共识

Recording date: 25th June 2025Compass, episode 20Tether, the company behind the USDT stablecoin, has acquired a 37.8% stake in Elemental Altus Royalties Corp, marking a significant development for the mining royalty sector. The transaction, executed at $1.55 per share through purchases from La Mancha and another shareholder, and grants Tether the right to acquire up to 51.8% of the company.The investment brings unprecedented financial firepower to the mining space. Tether generates over $5 billion annually in cash flow from its $100+ billion in deposits, which are invested in U.S. treasuries yielding 4-5%. To contextualize this scale, Tether's annual revenue is five times larger than Franco Nevada's $1 billion revenue, positioning it as a potentially transformative force in mining sector capital allocation.This move aligns with Tether's hard asset philosophy and anti-fiat currency stance. The company already operates a gold-backed stablecoin and holds approximately seven tons of physical gold, making mining royalties a logical expansion area. Importantly, Tether retained Elemental's existing management team, including CEO Frederick Bell and CFO David Baker, signaling a disciplined approach focused on fundamental value creation rather than aggressive growth at any cost.The market response has been positive, with Elemental's stock price rising from $1.55 to $1.80 following the announcement. Industry observers believe this could trigger broader rerating of mid-tier royalty companies as cryptocurrency-derived capital enters the sector. The transaction represents potential crossover between cryptocurrency and precious metals investors, both sharing anti-fiat currency philosophies.For the mining industry, this development addresses persistent capital constraints and introduces substantial new liquidity. The investment likely represents the beginning of Tether's mining sector involvement, with potential for additional investments across the value chain as the company seeks hard asset exposure for its massive cash flows.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Stablecoins zijn uitgegroeid tot een van de belangrijkste bouwstenen van de cryptomarkt. Maar wat zijn het eigenlijk? Kort gezegd: digitale munten die gekoppeld zijn aan een andere waarde, meestal een traditionele munt als de Amerikaanse dollar. Bekende namen als de USDT, USDC en Dai (DAI) proberen op verschillende manieren een vaste waarde te behouden. Dat gebeurt vaak door echte dollars als onderpand aan te houden, of door slimme algoritmes die vraag en aanbod reguleren. Opvallend is dat bijna alle grote stablecoins zich koppelen aan de dollar. Andere valuta, zoals de euro of de yen, zijn nauwelijks terug te vinden. Dat komt deels door de dominante positie van de dollar in de wereldhandel, maar ook omdat veel crypto-innovatie uit de VS komt. Die dominantie is niet onopgemerkt gebleven. Overheden werken inmiddels aan eigen digitale munten, zoals de digitale euro of digitale dollar. Toch lijken stablecoins voor te lopen op die plannen. En dat gaat verder dan alleen fiatgeld. Er wordt ook geëxperimenteerd met koppelingen aan grondstoffen of zelfs aandelen. Maar het gros van de stablecoins blijft gericht op de dollar, omdat die het grootste bereik en de meeste liquiditeit biedt. Stablecoins hebben verschillende functies. Ze worden veel gebruikt in handel: als tussenstation om snel van de ene naar de andere munt te gaan. Maar ze worden ook ingezet voor betalingen, als opslag van waarde, en steeds vaker door institutionele partijen als brug naar de cryptomarkt. Het gebruik is de afgelopen jaren geëxplodeerd, vooral omdat stablecoins relatief eenvoudig en snel te gebruiken zijn. Dat roept de vraag op of juist deze munten, en niet bitcoin, de echte betaalrevolutie van crypto aanvoeren. Beleggers kunnen daarvan profiteren door te investeren in de infrastructuur rond stablecoins – van uitgevende bedrijven tot onderliggende technologie. Toch zijn er risico’s. Dat bleek pijnlijk bij TerraUSD, een algoritmische stablecoin die in 2022 instortte. Maar ook centraal beheerde stablecoins kenden problemen, zoals USDC dat tijdelijk de koppeling verloor na problemen bij een bankpartner. Het verschil tussen algoritmische en onderpandgestuurde modellen is cruciaal. En ook de vraag naar decentralisatie speelt mee. De meeste stablecoins worden beheerd door centrale partijen, die soms zelfs bankachtige functies uitvoeren. Juist daarom komen er steeds meer regels. In Europa geldt inmiddels de MiCAR-regelgeving, waarin ook eisen aan stablecoins zijn opgenomen. In de VS werkt de overheid aan de zogeheten GENIUS-wet, die onder andere toezicht op stablecoin-uitgevers moet regelen. Die regulering kan helpen om de risico’s te verkleinen, maar roept ook vragen op: wat betekent dit voor plannen rond een digitale euro of dollar? Bedrijven zien in elk geval brood in stablecoins. Niet alleen Amerikaanse fintechs, maar ook Europese banken ontwikkelen hun eigen varianten. Zelfs Big Tech flirtte al met het idee, zoals Facebook destijds met Diem (voorheen Libra). De interesse is logisch: stablecoins zijn hét toonbeeld van tokenisatie. Inmiddels zijn er ook rentedragende stablecoins, en kijken partijen naar getokeniseerde aandelen en banktegoeden. Stablecoins zouden daarmee wel eens de eerste stap kunnen zijn in een veel bredere digitale transformatie van geld en vermogen.

We explore the Circle IPO hype, Tether's eye-popping profits, its growing presence in the U.S. Treasuries and Bitcoin mining, and how grassroots distribution across emerging markets powers its dominance. Paolo also gives a glimpse into Tether's ambitions in AI, tokenized gold, and the battle to distribute the dollar where banks can't reach. ------

In this episode of DeFi Decoded, Alex Tapscott and Andrew Young dig into the "most quiet and ignored crypto rally ever." Bitcoin is well over $100,000 and within striking distance of an all-time high, yet this market lacks the fervor and excitement of past bull runs. They dig into the reasons this, namely the growing bifurcation between the "hard money" narrative typified by Bitcoin maximalism and the 'tech accelerationism' narrative of Web3. The proliferation of new tokens has made it harder for speciic projects to stand out. Meanwhile, many people in 'crypto' particularly newcomers are underweight Bitcoin. Next, they talk about the rumours Ripple might buy Circle, issuer of stablecoin USDT and finish on a wrap-up of the Consensus Conference, highlighting the Canadian crypto ecosystem and how DePin (decentralized physical infrastructure) projects were a big standout.
