Great advancements in financial services and payment processing have occurred in recent years, yet the amount of merchant data available to card issuers lags far behind the quality and quantity of data available about consumers. The recent partnership between Spade and Fuelman changes that for the tens of thousands of gas stations within the Fuelman Network, including ExxonMobil, Chevron, Speedway and others, while offering an improved experience to over 2.5M drivers with the Fuelman Card. Congrats to both Spade and Fuelman on this exciting partnership! Learn more about how Spade’s merchant intelligence will provide Fuelman improved authorization and attribution of Mastercard fleet transactions within the nationwide Fuelman Network:

Huge news coming out of the EU! Congrats Chris Brummer and the entire Bluprynt team for the completion of the first-ever pilot of a Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) product in the European Union!! We’re thrilled to see the positive results that showcased the Bluprynt platform’s ability to expedite the creation of MiCA stablecoin white papers! Kudos again to Chris and the team of engineers, lawyers and lawyer-programmer who are stepping up to help address the uncertainties surrounding the launch of the MICA framework on June 30th!
I'm delighted to share that Bluprynt has completed the EU's first-ever pilot for #MiCA. The two-week exercise consisted of a simulation with prospective issuers for our new platform, which accelerates the composition of MiCA stablecoin white papers. The simulation, which was coordinated with the Lietuvos bankas | Bank of Lithuania, followed a tabletop forum Bluprynt hosted with general counsels and policy leaders from leading global infrastructure providers and stablecoin issuers--and regulatory observers from the Bank of Lithuania, the European Commission, and the European Banking Authority (EBA). As an interdisciplinary dialogue, leading experts from Ava Labs CahillNXT, Coinbase, INX, Kraken Digital Asset Exchange, Paxos, Polygon Labs, Membrane Finance, Solana Foundation, Vanderbilt University Law School, VNX collectively engaged varying insights and interpretations of some of MiCA's ambiguities, and how they compared to U.S. disclosure rules. Creating compliance tools that make it easier for entrepreneurs, infrastructure providers, and regulators requires bringing together expertise, research, and technology with a community of stakeholders. We've worked since day one to do just that and develop sensible, working solutions to forward the mission of creating a safer and more informed crypto marketplace. In the process, we're creating the most trusted and advanced technology platform for disclosures available, anywhere. We've got a few surprises ahead in the next several months. If you're grappling with white papers, building solutions for compliance, or stuck with sticky global regulatory questions, let us know.
