Banks used to move money the same way they did in the 1970s. Ben Milne @bpmilne thought that was insane. So he built @dwolla and @brale_xyz to force the system to catch up.
Ben Milne, Founder and CEO of @brale_xyz, takes the @proofoftalk stage this June. He sees the same broken infrastructure in stablecoins and he's once again redesigning the status quo to make systems smarter, faster, and better. doing exactly what he did last time.
@brale_xyz is a U.S.-regulated stablecoin-as-a-service platform. Businesses use it to create, manage, and orchestrate compliant, fiat-backed stablecoins, providing infrastructure for issuance, custody, compliance (KYB/AML), and on- and off-ramps across more than 15 blockchains through API integrations.
Before that, Ben founded @dwolla, a payments infrastructure company focused on bank-to-bank transfers and modern payment APIs.
On June 2–3 at the Louvre Palace, Ben walks through what the stablecoin market still gets wrong about infrastructure and what has to be true before institutions move real volume on-chain.

NOW STREAMING: Stableminded S7 E1
Stablecoins Are For Everyone. @bpmilne, Founder and CEO of @brale_xyz means it.
Ben has been building money infrastructure for over two decades.
He believes we're at a once-in-a-century turnover: the old system runs on human physics like banking hours, batch files, and print cycles.
Protocols don't need any of that.
Brale has launched 200+ stablecoins with a 20-person team. Now that the cost to launch has hit zero, the focus shifts to distribution, agentic commerce, and what gets built next.
What Ben and @drewrogers cover in this episode:
03:19 - "The cost to launch a stablecoin has now come to zero"
08:40 - From 2 customers to 200 stablecoins launched
13:45 - Why AUM-based pricing is an Achilles' heel
16:20 - "Imagine adopting payments infrastructure that makes you money"
19:28 - @glodollar USDGLO: Brale's first customer and lessons learned
24:41 - The @CantonNetwork Pilot with DRW, Cumberland, Bank of America
37:27 - Building with @CoinflowLabs and @raincards
44:04 - The executive education gap in stablecoins
53:27 - "When one very large company ignites agentic workflows, that chain is gonna be made"

Tooting my Des Moines too much the last few days but next week a bunch of really talented people moved their travel plans to be in DSM to experience the @redbull @DSMSkatepark @Sk8DSM event at the @DMArtCenter Pappajohn park. Living in a place where this kind of incredible stuff is going on right outside the window of our office is an incredible experience. It's one of those experiences that I just don't think is possible anywhere else.
