Thank you to #BITCOIN. The only truustless / truely decentralised global payment system. Now being digital gold. My upbringing has allowed me to think in certain ways: - Be Curious / Question everything - Hardwork beats everything - Delusional at the start - Not care what people think But this only gets you so far. YOU MUST BE IN AN INDUSTRY which is growing year on year. Where new capital is flowing, where attention is growing and where the market is still inefficient. Be efficient in inefficient sectors. Don’t reinvent the wheel. Just do it the best. My continued focus for the next 5/10 years: - Web3 - Ai We are cooking up a new project. Stay tuned 👀

Back to the future! I’m excited for one of Europe’s biggest Crypto Web3 events – the CONF3RENCE in #Dortmund. K&C started in traditional finance, helping German banks adapt to the internet over 25 years ago. Now, we're applying similar processes and tools to the #crypto world. This includes systems for permissionless lending, borrowing, and trading, as capital markets shift towards digital assets and distributed ledger technologies. Tokenization is central to this innovation. Our mission at K&C is to recruit the best talent globally to deliver exceptional results and bring these innovations to life with our clients. I’m looking forward to some lively discussions. Maybe I’ll see you there, or let’s connect here on LinkedIn? #Web3 #IToutsourcing K&C (Krusche & Company) #Tokenization #Fintech #Blockchain

Huma Finance, a leading tokenization platform focusing on real world impact, and Arf, a global transaction services platform that provides scalable liquidity for financial institutions, announced the companies have merged to expand global blockchain-powered financial services. The new company expects to surpass $3 billion on-chain liquidity volume by the end of 2024. Global money movement is a critical economic driver, yet it remains a cumbersome system of clearinghouses, market-by-market capital requirements, and country-specific regulations. Currently, $4 trillion1 is locked in treasury accounts, a massive but hidden working capital burden to financial institutions and the global payments industry. In 2023, the companies partnered to solve this problem, with the support of Stellar Development Foundation, by providing a liquidity on-demand solution backed by real world asset tokenization and Circle’s stablecoin USDC, enabling more than $1 billion in cross-border payments. Since then, there has continued to be unprecedented demand from major global payments players, currently at $500 million monthly. Looking ahead, building Arf’s liquidity capabilities on Huma’s platform will enable financial institutions to offer commercial and consumer payments with more significant impact and efficiency by removing the working capital requirement. Arf and Huma will continue to expand their liquidity solutions to adjacent use cases as well.
