You know what I mean?
Like what, you know, Celo.
is doing, what stable coins are doing around the world to export this choice and this freedom and to hold government officials and central banks accountable by having an alternative.
It's the right to exit.
It's a beautiful thing.
And it's definitely why we're excited about this space and why we're in it.
I want to ask you a question about something that you've referred to earlier, which is it seems like crypto has really started to focus on the stable coin stack, let's call it,
And so we talked about Tron earlier on.
There's some other competitors here.
So there's Polygon has done something recently where they have sort of a stable coin blockchain as well at some level.
And now they've gone and they've acquired some on-ramp type companies.
And you could see they're kind of verticalizing, let's say, and like expanding up the stack.
And then, of course, on the other side, you get projects like Tempo from Stripe.
Now, Stripe already has the fiat on-ramps, of course, and the dev tools for that.
And what are they doing?
They're missing the blockchain.
So they're building their own blockchain.
They're building Tempo.
And that's kind of their stack.
And now I see Celo competing against this, which is Celo started with the blockchain and is now partnering for the on-ramp and the wallet app with Minipay.
