Full Transcript

Tether versus Circle, do you see one starting to dominate the other in new ways? I believe USDC has surpassed them on transaction volume, but it's still behind on market cap and transaction count. So, that's new. Yep. Volume up, but still behind on the other dimensions. I think of them as serving very different and complementary roles.
