The stablecoin piece that gets me excited is where it fits as the settlement leg for Trade Finance.

It still runs on prefunding, slow settlement, and a lot of paper, and that's where @XDCNetwork and @contourtrade are already putting stablecoins to work.

Also love seeing how bank-issued stablecoins are changing how firms manage their digital cash, from how they look at their books to how they earn on it and use it as collateral, and that's what drives volume across the board.

If you're in New York on November 13, let's chat.

[Digital Assets Forum @DAF_Global]

The same stablecoin dollar can settle several payments.

What matters to a treasury team is when that cash becomes available to use again.

Travis John, Head of Institutional at @XDC_USA, joins DAFNY for a panel on stablecoin supply and transaction volumes.

Meet Travis in New York on November 13 to discuss what stablecoin settlement could change for banks and payment providers.

The AI startup energy was full throttle last week.

We hosted our latest cohort of frontier finance and tech builders with our partner @PlugandPlayTC accelerator and many of the industry blue chip co's at XDC Tech NYC.

[XDC Tech @XDCTech_]

Inside XDC NYC for the XDC AI Agents & Blockchain Accelerator with @PlugandPlayTC.

XDC’s @TravisJohn, Billy Sebell & Sebastian Eelbode share more about the program, alongside leaders from @IBM and @GoldmanSachs.

The next phase of AI will be defined by what can actually be deployed. This cohort is about finding the companies building what comes next — and creating a path to real-world adoption.

Meet the cohort:

@TravisJohn, Head of Institutional Defi for XDC, will be speaking on The Institutional Trust Stack for Onchain Finance — September 2 in NYC.

See you there!

[Travis John @TravisJohn]

Enjoyed talking trade finance with industry pioneers @StowellPorter and Anthony Day and sharing why I believe being the 'aggregator' and 'translator' to diversified, durable, tokenized yield is the WAY to meet accredited investors where they are.

[w3.io @w3arew3]

The capital is on-chain. The rails are live. So why is deploying into real products and companies still this hard?

@TravisJohn, Head of Institutional at @XDCNetwork, joins @StowellPorter, CEO of @w3arew3, and Anthony Day to break down what actually unlocks institutional capital.

Live Wednesday, July 15, 9:00 AM PT / 12:00 PM ET / 6:00 PM CEST

For years @XDCNetwork has built the next-gen infra for trade finance, but the missing piece for completed deals was payments.

Last year, USDC on XDC opened the door, and now with partners like Bridge (a @stripe co), we have compliant multi-currency cross-border payments enabled for our flows.

[XDC Network @XDCNetwork]

XDC Network has integrated with @Stablecoin (now part of @stripe), bringing fiat on- and off-ramps, virtual accounts and multi-currency custody to developers and businesses building on @XDCNetwork.

The integration enables near-real-time stablecoin settlement for cross-border payments, trade finance, tokenized assets and agentic commerce.

A major step towards building the payment and settlement infrastructure for an economy in which businesses, people, and autonomous AI agents transact globally.

Must-go event for people who are already in NYC

@_zanify @XDCNetwork @dfnsHQ Yes, locking tokens and securing the network earns you yield in XDC for doing so.

[Travis John @TravisJohn]

Excited to bring @XDCNetwork staking native to @dfnsHQ

[DFNS @dfnsHQ]

🟢 @dfnsHQ now supports staking on the @XDCNetwork.

Institutions holding XDC can now put it to work, earn rewards, and keep full custody and control.

XDC is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 built for enterprise use, with a focus on trade finance and real-world asset tokenization.

With staking support on DFNS, institutions can now stake and unstake XDC through the same transaction lifecycle they already use for every other operation.

That means:
✔️ The Policy Engine applies before anything is signed
✔️ Approval quorums, roles, and limits are enforced by default
✔️ Staking and unstaking become controlled, auditable decisions
✔️ Teams get visibility into balances, rewards, and activity

No separate staking infrastructure. No exposed private keys. No unmanaged actions outside the institution’s control framework.

Staking becomes one more operation inside DFNS, alongside holding, moving, and servicing assets across XDC and every other network you run.

That is what a core banking platform for digital assets is for.

@ethconf NYC brought together an incredible mix of builders, institutions, allocators, and infrastructure teams.

We were pleased to host a series of events and welcome partners from across the digital asset ecosystem.

From thoughtful discussions during the day to continued conversations in the evening, the week highlighted the growing momentum across payments, tokenization, and real-world assets.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to the XDC team whose hard work made the week possible. 🤝
