Great coverage from Cleve Meisdor (@cmesi) highlighting a powerful shift:
Credit Unions aren’t watching the stablecoin era unfold we’re shaping it.
Proud to see the movement represented at @money2020 and in @ForbesCrypto.
The future of community finance is real-time, tokenized, and member-owned.
👇 Worth the read

🚨🚨BANKS ARE IN TROUBLE 🚨🚨
223 TRILLION hidden risk in US banks that is known 🤔
Banks creating money out of thin air
FRACTIONAL RESERVE BANKING
NOW THEY DON'T EVEN NEED TO HOLD 10%
"Federal Reserve reduced reserve requirements to 0% in March 2020 in response to the economic effects of the pandemic."
Reserve requirements have remained at 0% since March 2020
"10% reserve requirement is a fractional reserve banking system rule where banks must hold 10% of customer deposits and can lend out the remaining 90%. This process allows banks to "create" money by lending out the 90%, which is then deposited into other banks, where 90% of that new deposit can be lent out again. This "money multiplier" effect expands the total money supply in the economy."
WHAT COULD GO WRONG
HOW BIG IS THE
PROBLEM REALLY ❓️❓️🤔

Absolutely incredible. An EUR stable coin, natively issued on @XahauNetwork 😲
I'm at a loss for words how excited I am about the next steps this will make possible. And very grateful to see @Quantoz seeing the value and innovation @XahauNetwork has to offer.
@Quantoz is a next-generation EMI that was the first stablecoin issuer licensed by the Dutch Central Bank.
@XahauNetwork is all the good things the XRP Ledger protocol has to offer, extended with several innovations and most importantly: 🪝 Hooks: native smart contracts.
At the second Xahau bday, this is the end of the beginning, and the start of more great things 💪🏼
We are pleased to collaborate with @Quantoz to bring the regulated euro-backed stablecoin EURQ to the @XahauNetwork. This supports the development of compliant solutions especially for cross-border use cases.

🚨 THE “SMART CITY” HURRICANE - JAMAICA’S CATEGORY 5 RESET EXPOSED
Officials launched Vision 2030, a UN-backed plan to turn Kingston into a fully digital Smart City, and now the island is being torn apart by Hurricane Melissa with 185 MPH winds and 892 mb pressure.
Meteorologists called it “unreal.”
Maybe because it is.
A storm this precise, hitting as Jamaica shifts to AI infrastructure, biometric IDs, and centralized grids, feels less like coincidence and more like calibration.
Old Jamaica erased.
New Jamaica: connected. surveilled. compliant.
The timing isn’t a coincidence.
It’s a blueprint.
Is this really a natural disaster or an engineered reset to fast-track Vision 2030?

BREAKING: PRESIDENT TRUMP EYES US-CHINA TRADE DEAL AFTER REACHING "EARLY CONSENSUS" IN TRADE TALKS.
Textbook execution, step number 10 in our tariff playbook is on the way.
We've spent the last 10 months analyzing EVERY single tariff development:
Here's the EXACT playbook for investors.
1. Trump puts out cryptic post on tariffs coming for a specific country or sector, markets drift lower
2. Trump announces large tariff rate (50%+) and markets crash to shake out weak positions
3. Dip buyers step in but the head fake rally leads to fresh lows where smart money begins buying
4. After the market closes on Friday, President Trump doubles down on new tariffs to apply pressure
5. On Saturday, the target of the new tariff typically responds or comments
6. On Sunday, before the futures open, Trump posts an announcement saying he is working on a solution
7. Futures open on sharply higher Sunday at 6 PM ET but begin losing momentum into the Monday open
8. After the Monday open, Treasury Secretary Bessent appears on live TV and reassures investors
9. Over the next 2-4 weeks, various members of the Trump Administration tease a trade deal
10. Trump announces a new trade deal and the stock market hits a record high
11. Repeat from step #1
Part of our strong YTD performance comes from following this EXACT playbook in times of trade tensions.
The US is currently on step #6 with China.
