today in stablecoin news we look at the case of #Paxos, the "responsible" #stablecoin issuer behind the largest stablecoin ever to be shut down by the government for money laundering (#BUSD aka "Binance USD").

- Paxos: "We're insured"
- Customers: "Wow! So who sold you the insurance? I heard it's hard to get insurance as a crypto company."
- Paxos: "A little company called Paxos"

p.s. one of the ex-Paxos guys behind BUSD, Austin Campbell, is considered a major thought leader for the industry and was a huge advocate for (and probably an architect of) the #GeniusAct

financial disclousre highlighting the sentence "the company has obtained excess deposit insurance, in the amount of $50 million, from paxos insurance"

also worth noting that paxos sold themselves $50 million worth of insurance to cover $890 million worth of assets.cartoon of an elephant sucking its own dick
