I’ve been searching for a decade for a crypto use case to fundamentally improve remittances. We finally have that live with MGUSD.

The price of tokens has no impact on our plans. :)
shortly after we started bridge, terra-luna collapsed, ftx imploded, btc declined >75%, nfts crashed. *all* of crypto was uninvestable whatever this is, it’s not as bad as 2022. tokens are crashing but many of the core products are here to stay (stables, perps, lending, etc)

Yesterday was fun talking MGUSD and the journey that we’re on at MoneyGram. Thanks @DanteReminick for the banter.
The hardest part of stablecoin payouts is not the protocol. Josh Gordon-Blake (@_therealjosh) and Dante Reminick (@DanteReminick) on what operational scale really looks like, and how MoneyGram is going from send and receive to a global digital wallet:

Owning productive assets via the stock market has been the best wealth building mechanism of all time. You are working to convince an entire generation to focus on meaningless short term bets. You actively work to destroy the wealth of your customers.
JUST IN: $180,000,000,000 wiped out from the US stock market at open

Today we launched MGUSD.     This wasn’t a decision made overnight.  This is the result of five years of putting stablecoin to work in the real world.     The outcome: A purpose-built stablecoin to power @MoneyGram global network.     Not for traders or institutions, but to make the experience better, faster, and more cost effective for our customers.

MoneyGram is joining @Tempo as its anchor remittance validator, actively contributing to the network’s operation, security and reliability. Another step toward a more open, interoperable payments network, where stablecoin rails support real-world money movement at scale.

On the @consensus2026 mainstage yesterday with @krakenfx’s @arjunsethi and @fortunemagazine’s @bdanweiss: "The thesis hasn't changed: we believe stablecoins are going to touch every part of our business. If we get the product right…we can save our customers time, effort and money in the long term." - @anthonysoohoo

Crypto transfers are typically instant and seamless unless users want to convert their digital currency into cash. Today, we’re changing that. We’ve partnered with @krakenfx to make digital assets usable in the real world, enabling their millions of users to cash out through our global retail network. prnewswire.com/news-releases…

For all the #Nuggets fans and even a select few Denver media members who believe Peyton Watson is purposely sitting out, stop it with that garbage. PWat wants to be out there with his brothers, he wants to be part of winning a ring, showcasing his skills. Kudos Matt & Ryan👏🏻👇🏻

When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another. Feeling threatened by anyone who is different, we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. In this way, polarization, conflict, fear and violence spread. What is at stake is not merely the risk of error, but a transformation in our very relationship with truth.

BREAKING: Just 20 minutes before Trump's announcement that the Strait of Hormuz was open, massive trades hit the market. Investors sold a combined 7,990 lots of Brent crude futures, ​a $760 million bet that oil would go down. These orders were much larger than anything else at the time. The traders made huge gains. Unusual.

Five years in a row on the USA TODAY Top Workplaces list. The recognition matters less than what it reflects: people choosing to work @MoneyGram , staying, and re-founding a company they believe in. Culture isn't declared. It's revealed in those choices. We're humbled, and we're not done.
MoneyGram has been named a 2026 USA TODAY @TopWorkplaces award winner — for the fifth year in a row! What we've consistently heard from our employees: MoneyGram is a place where people feel empowered to grow, take ownership, move with speed and make a real difference. To our teams in the U.S. and around the world: thank you for thinking boldly and delivering meaningful impact for our customers every day.
