We're hiring:

[Adam Zuckerman @AdamZuck13]

Building on top of another company's stablecoin is a huge platform risk.

Company's building stablecoin products will want to control when they freeze their customers' funds. They will want to control the interaction with authorities requesting the freeze. They will want to control the process to be able to unfreeze. They will want to control the timing and comms to their customers around a freeze. They will want to control how/what frozen assets are seized.

This is one of the main reasons why we will have hundreds of stablecoins. Companies will demand this level of control over their product and user experience.

[Sam Broner @SamBroner]

We're officially 200 days into building The Better Money Company. There's much I can't share yet, but plenty I can. We're moving money, clients are onboarding, the team is *growing* and *cooking*. I've never had more fun at work.

Build baby build!

the waitlist is getting a little out of hand

[The Better Money Company @bettermoney_co]

We're excited to be partnering with @BitGo for custody and compliance across The Better Money Company stablecoin clearinghouse.

Custody comes down to security, compliance, and technology — BitGo leads on all three. They provide exceptional infrastructure out of the box, so we can focus on making stablecoins work together.

[Adam Zuckerman @AdamZuck13]

Stablecoins don't yet have feature-parity with fiat. They need purpose-built infra to remain worth $1 even when in flight.

[The Better Money Company @bettermoney_co]

1/11 Is a stablecoin actually worth $1🧵

[Adam Zuckerman @AdamZuck13]

Great ep! Different companies will want to have different policies around freezing - like in TradFi.

Another reason for custom stablecoins https://t.co/JzGARZTCIy

[Jacob Robinson @JacobRobinsonJD]

Circle isn't the only stablecoin issuer who can freeze their token. And that's probably a good thing.

"If you have a fiat-backed U.S. dollar stablecoin and you don't have this capacity, you are going to break the peg at some point" - @austincampbell

[Adam Zuckerman @AdamZuck13]

Agreed @toly - but companies will want to own their own freezing/compliance capabilities and can solve this in a bespoke way with custom stablecoins. Not a one-size-fits-all solve from a competitive issuer.

[toly 🇺🇸 @toly]

There is nothing stopping a stablecoin competitor from wrapping usdc with their own token and creating a secure clearinghouse with security team based oversight with fast response to hacks.

If you think circle isn’t doing the best job for what the market demands, it’s a huge opportunity.

[Sam Broner @SamBroner]

Got our @BetterMoney_Co swag today. Team's looking goood!

Stablecoins have the power to reshape how money moves globally. If you believe that too, we’d love to build with you🦾

[Adam Zuckerman @AdamZuck13]

There's a better way to do payments - come build it with us @bettermoney_co!

[Sam Broner @SamBroner]

Well, stablecoin expert was short lived. We're building @bettermoney_co and it's been a long time coming.

We're hiring across the board - especially engineers with payments, ledgering, and distributed systems experience. DM me if you want to build better money.
