Abu Dhabi's fintech ecosystem isn't just growing, it's accelerating. Brian Byagaba, Head of Fintech at ADGM, tells what took years to build is now happening in months, with more custodians, exchanges, and product sophistication coming to the fore faster than ever. "The rate of progression has accelerated. What we were saying 2 or 3 years ago has almost felt time compressed in the last 12 months."

Bitcoin on one side. AI infrastructure on the other. Nothing in between. Phillip Lord, CEO of Bitcoin Japan, tells @philliplord1 the two aren't as separate as they seem, digital assets will power the AI economy, and humanoids will need programmable money to operate. "The digital assets will power the AI economy."

80% of crypto firms couldn't survive MiCA's deadline. Now the firms left standing are about to absorb everyone else's customers. Anastasia Kinsky, editor of The Signal, tells Europe's regulatory shake-up is less a threat and more a consolidation moment, with MiCA 2.0 already in the works to cover what the first round missed.

Supply chain finance puts liquidity "right into the heart" of the supply chain. Jeremy Jansen of @WellsFargo Supply Chain Finance tells @RemyBlaireNews clients can "extend their payables, creating liquidity" while suppliers get paid in as little as 5 to 10 days from invoice.

"Stablecoins are actually just purely good." @mikebelshe, CEO of @BitGo, tells @RemyBlaireNews banks haven't identified "a single risk that's really there," and the concern about losing deposits is a movie we've seen before, from money markets backed by T-bills in the 1970s.

Clear legislation is "priceless" for institutions moving into tokenization. @AndrewMcMarkets of @Chainlink tells @RemyBlaireNews large financial institutions "move thoughtfully and deliberately," and without durable regulatory frameworks, legal and compliance teams can't build the infrastructure needed to scale.

"The only real path forward for enterprise users on chain is with privacy technology." @pbrody of Nightfall Networks tells @RemyBlaireNews AI agents making business decisions on a public blockchain without privacy means "your competition can roll through everything and see everything."

People have "points fatigue" and brands can't compete with Amazon on advertising. @itsphilgeorge of @earnos_io tells @RemyBlaireNews the solution is rewarding users with cash when they engage with brands, a "power tool" that gives any company a turnkey loyalty program for the first time.

In a high risk bull market, @BobDoll_ of Crossmark is focused on free cash flow, cheap multiples, and high return on equity. He tells @RemyBlaireNews those ingredients should "weather any kind of storm reasonably well" while still capturing upside if the market continues higher.

The Sharia-compliant finance market is worth $7 trillion, and barely anyone is building for it at scale. Abdul Rafy Gadit, co-founder and CCO of ZIGChain, tells that after becoming the first blockchain to receive Sharia certification on proof of staking, the opportunity goes far beyond Muslim investors. "The principles on which Islamic finance works is not just for Muslims, it's for everyone."

99% of stablecoin volume is in US dollars today. But that might not last. Bernardo Brites, co-founder and CEO of Trace Finance, tells @bebrites the UAE dirham could become the currency other countries gravitate toward for international commerce across the Middle East and Africa. "We can actually now see a lot of the payment flows happening through an AED stablecoin."

Sovereign wealth funds and pension funds want into digital assets. So what's still holding them back? Karl Naim, Group Chief Commercial Officer and SEO of Middle East at XBTO, tells the three hurdles every institutional investor needs cleared before making their first allocation, custody, volatility management, and manager due diligence. "Really having this traditional finance discipline and risk management approach, more than just managers that talk about returns without talking about risk."

America's 250th is a moment to honor those who serve. Admiral Daryl Caudle of @USNavyCNO tells @JD_Durkin less than 1% of Americans qualify to join the armed forces, and those who serve do so voluntarily, choosing to "don the cloth of the nation." "They do something that's bigger than themselves."

Tokenization is about "the transparency" and "operational efficiency" for Wall Street. @SuzyS1ngh of @Securitize tells @JD_Durkin it's not the same as cryptocurrency, using blockchain as a "digital ledger" for settlement, peer to peer transfers, and 24/7 trading. "It's like an evolution. You had AOL and dial-up before, and now we have Wi-Fi."

NYSE Market Strategist @Eric_Criscuolo tells @JD_Durkin semis sold off sharply at the start of July while hyperscalers like $AMZN, $GOOGL, and $META "just ripped higher," with healthcare also seeing a bid as investors rotate. "Things are kind of switching from where they were just a couple of weeks ago."
