I feel like the starting gun was Stripe acquiring bridge, which happened pre-Genius bill passing, pre- you know, there being to there being actual rules of the road for stable coins in the U.S.

Aaron Powell And after the state of crypto report last year, didn't it?

Aaron Powell And after the state of crypto, yeah.

And this was after we had gone out there and said that stable coins have found product market fit, which is kind of cool.

Cool.

We call that one right.

But no, I think Stripe was the starting gun because they bought Bridge.

And um I think this got all the other players paying instant attention.

They were like, okay, this is this is a real thing we need to start to take seriously.

That's my read on it.

I'd love to get would you guys how you think this has sort of shaken out among the players and and who's been very surprising to you getting involved.

is the big kahuna when it comes to uh tokenized assets so far.

And I will say that does surprise me, because when you mention Revolut and Robinhood, you know, it's not terribly surprising that these fintech upstarts are

you know, trying to explore this new terrain, but to have a stodgy old legacy incumbent big bank do so?

Like that that is kind of surprising.

That's exactly what I mean.

I like that.

It's also a different cut on the price innovation cycle where it's not number go up, it's number go down, costs go down, stable coins become usable, and now you unleash this whole wave of like new innovation that's happening.

All right.
