For episode 654 of the BlockHash Podcast, host Brandon Zemp is joined by Jason Dehni of BlackOpal.BlackOpal is an on-chain asset management and payments platform bridging investment-grade yield with emerging market receivables. The problem they're solving is twofold: High-quality merchants in emerging markets pay above-market premiums for working capital, not because they're risky, but because legacy banking is expensive, slow, and opaque. Meanwhile, institutional capital in developed markets is starved for low-risk emerging market yield.BlackOpal specializes in credit card receivables, underwriting based on historical and real time transactions, and acquiring them via short-duration True Sale structures. Credit risk is further minimized through repayment by AA+ counterparties like Visa and Mastercard, resulting in near zero credit default. Currency risk is hedged via Non-Deliverable Forwards (NDFs). ⏳ Timestamps: (0:00) Introduction(0:51) Who is Jason Dehni?(3:03) What is Black Opal?(6:15) Gemstone vs. LiquidStone II(8:27) User protection & transparency(10:43) What makes Black Opal unique?(13:15) Where are Black Opal's products available?(15:04) Future opportunities in the Digital Asset market(19:35) Tokenization in the near future(23:50) Black Opal roadmap 2026(25:49) Events & conferences(27:08) Black Opal website & socials

Der Dow Jones springt dank einer Aufstufung von Visa um 0,9 % auf ein neues Rekordhoch, während der S&P 500 mit –0,2 % und der Nasdaq mit –0,7 % unter Druck geraten. Auslöser ist erneut Oracle: Die Aktie stürzt nach schwachen Umsätzen und steigender Ausgabenprognose um 12 % ab und zieht KI-Schwergewichte wie Nvidia, Broadcom, AMD und CoreWeave mit nach unten. Damit kippt die Euphorie, die die Fed mit ihrer dritten Zinssenkung entfacht hatte. Powell betont, man sei „gut positioniert, abzuwarten“, und verweist auf Trumps Zölle als Inflationsfaktor. Während der Russell 2000 gestern ein Rekordhoch markierte, mahnen Strategen weiterhin zur Vorsicht: Der Weg zu dauerhaft niedrigeren Zinsen könnte länger dauern als vom Markt erhofft.

Is the Bitcoin cycle dead, or are we just getting started? With Bitcoin hovering around $92K and institutional adoption accelerating, the crypto landscape is more confusing—and exciting—than ever. Robert and Will break down the wild crypto year of 2024-2025 and debate what's coming in 2026. They explain the GENIUS Act that ended the "Biden war on crypto," why stablecoins could drive down costs across the economy (0.3% fees vs 3-10% traditional payments), and how companies like Visa are building crypto payment rails. But it's not all bullish. They dive into the Japan carry trade unwinding, the dangers of government-controlled CBDCs, and the big question: Is this Bitcoin cycle over or just delayed? Will argues we're in a lengthening cycle driven by global liquidity. Robert thinks the blow-off top is behind us and October 2026 will be the next buying opportunity. They also preview the Clarity Act coming in Q1 2026, which could open the floodgates for institutional investment in the broader crypto space beyond just stablecoins.

With 7.7 million Venezuelan refugees globally and 2.9 million in Colombia alone, the challenge of distributing humanitarian aid effectively is huge. Using cash is slow and risky, and lacks transparency, raising problems for NGOs and migrants alike. In this episode, we're joined by the team from AAvance, a fintech working with Visa to tackle this problem head-on. We'll explore how their digital wallet is replacing insecure cash with prepaid cards, giving dignity and financial freedom to migrants. We'll hear the human stories behind AAvance's work, and learn how it's creating a pathway to economic independence for migrants across Colombia. And we'll discover just why it matters so much to AAvance's founders themselves John Herreño and Magreth Gutierrez Vargas.Disclaimers:Visa Direct capability is enabled through a financial institution partner.
