Love the inclusion of passkey. Passkey + on device secure elements are wildly under used in web 3 wallet contexts As is backward compatibility with trust anchors like CLEAR.

Is that fee reduction just moved? I.e. so long as you're in the stablecoin and Tokenized world you're lower fee. But as soon as you interact with tradfi the cost comes back. That does become an argument to go all in on tokens but that's unrealistic for most non crypto native SMBs

That's a significant democrat revolt. The penny has dropped that it's an election year.

Visa's "flexible credential" makes cards work with any payment type. Huge unlock for Stablecoins Its a token that makes a card a pointer to any payment type. Today credit, debit, BNPL or ACH... Tomorrow Who's building?! @cuysheffield https://usa.visa.com/about-visa/newsroom/press-releases.releaseId.20686.html
