$180B+ USDT liquidity is now accessible to one of the most widely deployed payment networks.
USDT0 is live on @StellarOrg.
Stellar enables 180+ countries to move money in seconds for less than a tenth of a cent, meaning 10,000 txns on Stellar is cheaper than one wire transfer.

EXCLUSIVE: Tokenization startup Tradable plans to bring $1 billion worth of private credit assets to Stellar theblock.co/post/408399/toke…

"Stellar did not become private by default through these upgrades. It became a more practical execution environment for teams building privacy-preserving applications in the same network where payment and asset activity already live."

@NIST now puts the quantum threat to today's cryptography at 2029 and beyond. Every blockchain, not to mention the encryption technology behind every major industry, faces the same migration.
Stellar's advantage: account identity is separate from signing keys. No one has to abandon the account they already have to become quantum-safe.
The plan 👇

Today, @The_DTCC and SDF are announcing plans to enable the tokenization of DTC-custodied assets on Stellar.
The connection supports the rapid conversion of traditional assets into tokenized form, and the full asset lifecycle, including corporate actions and reporting.

Final Stop GameStop: The Jig is Up
In Part 1, I outlined how he arrived on the scene – we had a talk in 2019 about GameStop and investing. The Chewy founder then made a big splash as an activist with a Form 13D filing later in 2020.
He has held on with the diamondest hands.
Ryan, the current Executive Chairman, CEO and owner of now about 9% of GameStop stock, ascended to this dual role in September 2023.
Let’s take a look at the business as it stands today.
Here I will introduce the Scion Analyst Template, in parts. This is a Microsoft Word template I put together for my wayward analysts early in 2006. The idea was to get everyone thinking my way about analyzing stocks.
I will now, as I would have in 2006, analyze GameStop stock by working through the template one section at a time.

This is the part where I complain about @ryancohen buying 500k shares of $GME as the CEO and cry about store closures, right everyone?

It’s not crypto vs physical metals, it’s both working together.
Gold and silver are great at storing value, but they’re slow and hard to move in a digital economy. Blockchain doesn’t replace metal, it makes it usable. When metal is tokenized 1:1, you can transfer value instantly, settle payments globally, or use fractional ownership without shipping bars around.
Crypto isn’t about abandoning physical assets. It’s the rail that lets hard assets like gold and silver function in modern markets. Fiat fails because it’s printed. Crypto succeeds when it’s backed.
The future isn’t picking a side, it’s hard assets + digital settlement working as one.
