🚀 Stablecoins + QR Payments = A New Era for Vietnam 🇻🇳 The payments world is shifting—from cash and cards to borderless digital dollars. Stablecoins like USDT and USDC are no longer just tools for traders. They’re becoming the fastest, cheapest, and most inclusive way to pay for anything, anywhere. 💡 The numbers: • The global stablecoin market is worth $230B+ today—and growing fast. • Stablecoins offer instant settlement, low fees, and 24/7 global reach. • For the 1.4 billion people without reliable banking access, all you need is a smartphone to connect to the global economy. ⸻ Why Vietnam? Vietnam is one of the fastest-growing digital economies in Southeast Asia. 📊 Key facts: • Mobile payment volume: $226B in 2022, projected to reach $475B by 2025. • The government is actively pushing for a cashless society. • QR code payments are everywhere—700,000+ merchants accept them nationwide. This is a market primed for innovation. ⸻ What We Built at PEXX At PEXX we’ve become the first stablecoin bank to enable QR code payments in Vietnam. Here’s how it works: 1️⃣ Scan any VietQR code. 2️⃣ We automatically detect the merchant via the banking network. 3️⃣ Your USDT or USDC is instantly converted to VND. 4️⃣ Payment is completed—all in under 60 seconds. ⸻ Why This Changes Everything ✅ Tourists can spend stablecoins directly at local shops. ✅ Merchants receive instant VND settlement—no currency exchange hassles. ✅ Cross-border remittance becomes as simple as buying coffee. With 700k+ QR merchants now within reach, stablecoins aren’t just digital assets—they’re everyday money. ⸻ Vietnam’s fintech scene is booming, with global events like Blockchain Week and World Financial Innovation Series showcasing the country’s potential. By combining stablecoin technology with existing payment rails, we’re not just keeping up with the future—we’re helping define it. ⸻ 💬 If you’re in fintech, payments, or blockchain, I’d love to hear your thoughts: • How will stablecoins reshape emerging markets? • What other countries are ready for a leap like this? #PEXX #StablecoinBank #Stablecoins #Fintech #Vietnam #DigitalPayments #FutureOfPayments #Inclusion #Innovation #Web3 #Blockchain

🚀 Animoca’s Yat Siu on CNBC: The Next Phase of Web3 Adoption In his recent CNBC interview, Yat Siu, Chairman of Animoca Brands, shared powerful insights on the evolving crypto ecosystem and what it means for businesses and investors: 🔹 Bitcoin vs. Ethereum ·       Bitcoin = Digital Gold: A store of value, rarely spent. ·       Ethereum = Utility: With ~$100B in total value locked, it powers stablecoins, NFTs, and L2s. Because ETH is used and spent, its rise fuels broader ecosystem growth. 🔹 The Coming Altcoin Wave As ETH strengthens (with predictions of $6K–$10K ahead), capital will cascade into altcoins and Web3 ecosystems. Corporates moving treasury allocations from BTC → ETH → other tokens show how adoption will spread across the industry. 🔹 Internet Money → Internet Customers Accepting tokens isn’t only a payment play. It’s access to a loyal, liquid, and growing community. Just like selling in different fiat currencies, offering goods in ETH, SAND, or other tokens lowers friction and builds deeper engagement. 🔹 A New Global Wealth Class and 🌍 The Big Picture Over 500 million people worldwide now own crypto and digital assets. This isn’t just about asset prices – it’s a massive new customer base. Luxury brands were early movers, integrating NFTs and Web3 strategies to reach this audience. The token economy already represents $4T+ in market cap. Every cycle of adoption redistributes value across projects, creating new opportunities for builders, brands, and investors alike. 🙌 At True Global Ventures, we share Yat’s conviction: the real story isn’t just crypto prices, but the transformation of money into a new internet-native customer economy. 👀 Watch the interview: https://lnkd.in/grXu26Em
