Everything Old is New Again

Austin Campbell 6月 7, 2022

When I started my career in finance, one of the first realizations I had was that almost nothing was new. A “new” product in finance was almost always a resurrection of an old product or a retrofitting of an existing product to a new application. Truly new products were exceptionally rare.

Understanding the Demise of UST and What Makes a Stablecoin Stable

Austin Campbell 5月 13, 2022

Stablecoins are digital tokens backed by stable assets such as the US dollar, and were originally created for crypto investors to have an easy on- and off- ramp between fiat currencies and crypto. As stablecoin usage and market cap have increased, so has regulatory scrutiny. In particular, the reserve practices (or lack thereof) of various stablecoins have increasingly been in the spotlight – which brings us to the algorithmic stablecoin at the heart of the Terra ecosystem, UST.

Crypto is the Future & Paxos is Charting the Course for its Mainstream Adoption – That’s Why I Left Legacy Finance

Austin Campbell 5月 9, 2022

Important lessons learned from 2008 can and should be applied to digital assets today. That’s how we’ll ensure the open, digital economy is built to withstand tests of volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity. Transparency into the entire system is needed so we can more critically evaluate promises of stability. That’s how a well-designed, inclusive digital asset ecosystem built to withstand shocks will emerge and flourish. In short, crypto really is the future. And the most  killer application of blockchain yet is the stablecoin.

Speed & Ease are More Crucial Than Ever When Buying Gold

Anoushka Rayner 3月 3, 2022

Gold has always been a safe haven asset. When markets and geopolitical situations are unpredictable, investors flock to gold to minimize risk. Gold is a global asset independent from any fiat currency or government, it is a universally attractive store of value and it is timeless. And with gold-backed digital assets (like PAX Gold), it is now easier and faster than ever to get physical investment-grade gold.

T+1 and T+0 are Possible Today if the SEC Opens the Market to Competition

Julia Bronson 2月 24, 2022

Paxos was founded with the belief that market infrastructure needs to be modernized and accelerated because there is too much risk inherent in core utilities as they exist today. That’s why Paxos has been working for years on a solution to shorten settlement. We’ve successfully built a solution called the Paxos Settlement Service that settles trades on T+2, T+1 and T+0 – really, settlement on any cycle. That means, with Paxos, T+1 and T+0 are available today, not next year.  

Hypergrowth vs. Tech Debt

Huw Rogers 2月 24, 2022

In the last several months, Paxos has hit a stage of development commonly known as “hypergrowth” due to the mainstream adoption of digital assets. Under heavy acceleration, tech companies need to rapidly evolve software systems from earlier-stage minimal viable products to enterprise-grade platforms that are scalable and reliable. These transformations are extremely challenging, and the challenges extend beyond software development to organizations as a whole.

Same-Day Settlement: A Misunderstood Opportunity

Greg Lee 12月 17, 2021

This conflation in many people’s minds of T+0, Real-Time Gross Settlement (RTGS), and atomic settlement demonstrates just how misunderstood this topic really is. To be clear, T+0 simply means settlement on the same day as the trade, RTGS means settlement at the time of trading, and atomic settlement is the transfer of securities against cash (ie: delivery vs payment) at any settlement time. All of these should be embraced as opportunities that can create efficiencies, cut costs and protect our system from future market failures.

How much is too much? The usual answer: “What’s it worth to you?”

Charles Cascarilla 10月 12, 2021

Everything is energy, including money, which is just a fungible form of energy. If energy is the ability to do work, money is the fungible ability to make like-for-like decisions about whether to consume energy today or defer consumption by investing that energy.

Crypto is Growing Fast… And Compliance is Key to Accelerating that Growth

Christel Chan 9月 1, 2021

The Digital Dollar that Always Equals a Dollar – Paxos Standard (PAX) is now Pax Dollar (USDP)

Walter Hessert 8月 24, 2021

Paxos Standard (PAX) will now be known as Pax Dollar (USDP). The USDP ticker more easily identifies Pax Dollar as a US dollar-backed token. As use cases for stablecoins rapidly expand, the demand for a regulated USD token has grown significantly. Companies and consumers globally are entering crypto markets and need a safe, dollar-based solution. As USDP, everyone will be able to instantly recognize our token as a dollar-backed stablecoin.

Licensing & Registration Are Not Equal to Regulation

Dan Burstein 8月 6, 2021

At Paxos, we believe the only way to establish and maintain safety and transparency for customers is through rigorous oversight from a prudential regulator. This thesis has unfortunately borne out in the reserve mix for both USDC and USDT (Tether). Both of these tokens’ reserves are backed by a significant amount of non-cash financial instruments. A prudential regulator is crucial to ensuring the integrity of products used in the crypto ecosystem, and neither USDC nor USDT has such a regulator.

A Regulated Stablecoin Means Having a Regulator

Dan Burstein 7月 21, 2021

Paxos powers the only safe, regulated and liquid stablecoins that are always 100% backed 1:1 by US Dollars. Paxos has a primary regulator and is held to higher standards than other operators. Licensing and registration does not equal regulation.

The Five Attributes of Money, Part II: Openness, the Attribute that Matters Most

Charles Cascarilla 4月 22, 2021

Of the five main attributes of money, openness is the most important one because it dictates the limit on how many participants comprise the network and therefore how much utility that network can serve. Today’s modern fiat banking system is the dominant system, yet it is still closed to billions of people around the world. Society stands to gain advantages in access, autonomy, privacy, greater innovation and lower fee structures with a more open system system.
