Xen (Base Director of Growth) paints the vision: a freelancer in Lagos paid in USDC that clears in two seconds with no correspondent bank; a São Paulo startup raising onchain capital from Singapore and Berlin with no SPV or six-month legal process; AI agents settling supply chain invoices automatically because the payment and contract layers are the same thing; a teenager in Manila earning money building on a protocol where nobody asks where she went to school. The thread frames the onchain economy as fundamentally about increasing innovation, creativity, and freedom through open financial access.
