Global Head of Public Policy at Paxos & Senior Nonresident Fellow, Atlantic Council

What a week! Grateful for the opportunity to participate in Point Zero Forum - in the span of just a few days, the Paxos team led a dialogue on designing a harmonized global framework for stablecoins, joined a lively (to put it mildly!) discussion on how the public and private sectors can "future proof" stablecoins in the monetary system, and engaged with top regulators, policymakers, and industry leaders. #PZF2024 And on top of that, I had the chance to spend time with new Paxos Singapore Executive Director Jeannie L.. Excited to have you on board!

Today, Paxos International announced the launch of Lift Dollar (#USDL) – a yield-bearing stablecoin with regulatory oversight that democratizes access to US dollars and safe yield generated from cash and cash equivalent assets. Now, you can seamlessly spend, save and trade, all while earning yield. USDL is issued by Paxos International, a regulated entity overseen by the Financial Services Regulatory Authority in the ADGM, ensuring the highest standards of consumer protection. Note: USDL is not available to residents of the US, UK, EU, UAE, Canada, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore and other specific countries. Congratulations to the entire team on the launch of this transformative product. You can learn more about it here: bit.ly/4ca2QuX

Blockchains are more nuanced than you'd think! Paxos has a helpful explainer on the different blockchain types, their key traits and use cases, and their advantages and challenges 👇

Loved to get the chance to catch up with Tommaso Astazi from Blockchain for Europe yesterday and talk about digital assets in a polarized political environment, the power of real world use cases, and of course share some war stories from the (industry) front lines! Thank you to Eleanor Mueller from POLITICO for moderating. Kudos to The Digital Chamber for a great set of programming this week, including yesterday’s Education Day with Trilligent.

Looking forward to joining a fantastic panel that will help put illicit finance risks into perspective and bring attention to the ways blockchain-based solutions can support and enhance anti-money laundering and counterterrorist financing efforts. And just as good as the substance is the all-star panel lineup: Kristopher Klaich, Ari Redbord, Steve Merriman, and Brian Whitehurst. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Many thanks to the Digital Chamber Blockchain Summit for bringing us together for this important conversation!

U.S. economic and national security hinges on attracting and retaining top talent, especially in fields like innovative technology. Grateful to have worked with Eitan Danon and Sigal Mandelker on this important piece for the Atlantic Council on how to do just that.

So honored to represent Paxos at this week’s Financial Action Task Force (FATF) Virtual Assets Contact Group meeting. Great to join the discussion on Travel Rule implementation, hear updates on emerging threats in the digital assets space, and be in the room with industry experts and delegate regulators from all over the world. And the location wasn’t too shabby, either! 🇫🇷 🥖
