Big news: @Bitwage has been acquired by @Paystand — one of the world’s leading blockchain payment networks processing $20B+ in volume. ⚡ This isn’t just a business milestone — it’s a deeply personal one. Over ten years ago, we set out to fix something broken in how people get paid. 💙

When my cofounder John Lindsay and I started @Bitwage in 2014, freelancers and remote workers were losing money and time because the system was too slow — or too stubborn — to modernize. We built Bitwage so people could finally get paid what they earned, when they earned it — in #bitcoin, stablecoins, or local currency. 🌍

Since then, Bitwage has helped tens of thousands of people across almost 200 countries and processed $500M in payroll. Now, with @Paystand, we’re building the next era of global payments — faster, fairer, and programmable. To everyone who believed in this mission from day one — thank you. 💙 #Bitwage #Paystand #Blockchain #Fintech #Stablecoins #AgenticFinance
