They suddenly had a product which was going to be generating about $80 million in income each year.

So instead of using dollars or any of the other kind of much, much more established kind of stable coins on the market, this investor picked a currency which at that point in time had barely been used for anything else.

this major UAE investor called MGX, and World Liberty announced that MGX would use USD1 to make this $2 billion payment.

We were always left with an open question about why would MGX be so willing to use the president family's own currency?

At the time, it was like, that's strange.

Sie fühlen sich auch ermutigt, dass es Stablecoin-Legislation gibt, die sich gerade durch den Kongress bewegen. Und ich denke, dass die großen Banken jetzt sehen, dass es ein guter Moment ist, um versuchen zu reklamieren, einige dieser neuen Ökonomie.

I think he saw that we were going to reach a point in the future where AI and technology would be so advanced that we wouldn't really be able to distinguish it from humans, you know, and particularly kind of in an online setting. So, you know, that could apply to bots on social media or deepfake people on video calls, etc.
