This is somewhat akin to air resistance that compounds over time. Where: Compliance cost(t) = TPV(t)^3 + TPV(t-1)^2 The costs of fucks ups is higher as time goes on. The ability to do things like get tier 1 customers (or go public) is harder when this isn’t factored in early.

As a headline metric, TPV in early-stage b2b xborder startups is very much like GMV in b2b marketplaces. Teams can pump this early in an unscalable context (unit econ, compliance, GTM, etc). Useful signal for hustle. Not as useful as a signal for longer-term viability.

@bernard_parah Have you dug into any of the bittensor subnets? A few months ago there were rumors of this but I don’t know if it’s actually happening.

@fryderyk_sitnik @NikMilanovic I've heard that Visa's FX business is >$1B in revenue, but this did not come from official communications.

I wonder what the fintech ecosystem would look like if banks didn’t have a monopoly on laundering money.
