#2 @Wise
#3 Commonwealth Bank
#4 @Qantas
#5 @Australia Post
Australian Treasurer says plans to introduce licensing arrangements for businesses that offer #digitalassets such as #crypto & #stablecoin.

Yep. Have been a customer of @AllicaBank for years. Very rare to find an actual UK bank, not an emoney firm, in the UK with such seamless tech.
And important to note. The word 'banking' (& often 'bank') are being abused by quite a few as misdescriptions of non-bank services.
Australia could be cash-free in five years. Are we ready?
Despite our move away from the folding stuff, we’re not doing enough to help older generations embrace digital payments, nor are we building the infrastructure needed. By @wilsonbec

#Bitcoin is surging. This is why it may not last
#crypto-specific factors in the resurgence of the flagship for #cryptoassets include the most significant one - US SEC’s begrudging approving spot trading of #btc by ETFs in January

Although self-managed super funds (SMSFs) now hold about $1 billion in #cryptoassets compared to $240 million just three years ago (and zero five years ago), that is less than 0.03% of the $3.5 trillion in total held in Australia's super pool. #BTC

“APRA don’t like seeing a bank application from a bunch of disruptive entrepreneurs with an innovative product. That has been the challenge, and that is something they will need to get their head around if more banks will be starting.” said Avenue’s co-founder Colin Porter.

Outrageous. @iamjohnoliver on @LastWeekTonight says that any #crypto can be built by anyone with a laptop. #Shitecoin took two laptops. Price based on number of Ryanair flights which arrive on time. And runs on Ireland's #craicchain.
"Fingers pointed to an issue at #TechMahindra, an Indian tech firm that provides administration services for a range of #Perpetual superannuation products including unit registry, client administration, insurance administration and reporting."

What a week at @money2020!🙌
A special thanks to @Entirl & Dr. Jennifer Carroll MacNeill TD, Minister of State at the Department of Finance who spoke with the team getting an insight into TransferMate's cutting-edge solutions, helping the growth of the Irish #fintech industry.
