🚀 Visa x USDC: the missing bridge for crypto
— Visa expands its settlement in USDC to new banks and merchants in EMEA → payments 24/7 and frictionless  .
— CEO of Visa: the strategy focuses on emerging markets where cash reigns and cards don't reach .
— At the same time, the SEC authorizes in-kind for crypto ETFs (bye-bye cash redemptions)  .
— Result: ETFs added US $ 12.8 B in July, a record high .
— And from 2025, companies will be able to reflect crypto gains thanks to the new FASB rule  .
Express idea (not financial advice):
1️⃣ Do DCA in USDC ↔ fiat to take advantage of the new payment pathway.
2️⃣ Hedge with BTC/ETH calls: greater ETF liquidity = lower spreads.
3️⃣ Keep a close eye on payment tokens (e.g. SOL and MATIC) that could join Visa soon
