“USDC issuer Circle eyes early 2024 IPO amid growing stablecoin adoption”
Although nothing is official and in writing at this point, an introductory private offering of the USDC coin would make trade relationships more solid going into next year with the new digital economy.
Many countries are already refusing to take the dollar in trade, and this new digital dollar would keep us in line with the changing tides.

Bitcoin has just reached $37,000. It would make a lot of sense for the US to move into a digital dollar along with being the number one holder of Bitcoin at this time. The timing of this move together would be impeccable.

The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”) just launched OTC direct connect.
Over-the-counter securities (OTC) are securities that are not listed on a National Exchange making it possible for these underlying securities to be accessed and traded such as new foreign currency markets.
This move will allow more transparent data to flow between investor and trader going forward along with smart contracts securing the trade inside a new digital economy.

I am aware that many headlines are written to grab people’s attention. This is the purpose of a doom and gloom title for articles. Yes, we have been preparing for this transition for a long time. This is why capital requirements are being lifted to secure the transitional period for us.
The world is not coming to an end. It is at the beginning stages of a rebirth. If you have been following this page, you will realize that our financial institutions have been simply finding new parameters in order to exist in a new world.
Some stocks will fall while others will rise during this time. I just simply pray that you were on the right side of history at this point because it is coming.

Whether your company is a new fintech or a traditional financial institution with deep roots, you should be taking notice of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) October 27, 2022 announcement concerning Section 1033 of the Dodd-Frank Act.[1]
Among other things, Section 1033 mandates that financial services companies provide consumers with access to the data they generate, such as payment histories and transaction records, in a usable electronic format. It further provides that the right to access be “subject to rules prescribed by the Bureau.” https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/cfpb-provides-an-update-on-its-long-6465613/
