Building AssetRails for institutions.
Years running institutional OTC taught me one thing: the rails are broken.
Fiat ⇄ stablecoin. T+0 settlement. KYB at the speed of business.
The companies that win cross-border B2B make this boring.
Let's build.
Most teams think cross-border friction costs 1–2%.
Real math: 4–7%.
Correspondent fees.
FX markup.
Lifting fees.
T+2–5 float.
Add it up.
Multiply by monthly volume. That's the margin stablecoin rails recover. T+0. Mid-market. One hop.
Why we built AssetRails in Dubai:
1. Regulation that ships, not lobbies (DIFC, DFSA)
2. Geography — 8 hours to 70% of the world
3. Customer density you can't manufacture
Singapore? Probably. London? Maybe.
Dubai is where the rails belong.
