💰 FOLLOW THE MONEY: Stripe now charges 1.5% for stablecoin payments vs 2.9% for cards. In 2024, stablecoins moved $15.6 trillion—matching Visa’s volume. For a grocery store with 1% margins, eliminating interchange fees could double net income for merchants


⚡ THE STABLECOIN DISRUPTION: Here’s what really scares JPM. Traditional payments cost 1-3% in interchange fees. Stablecoin transactions? As low as $0.00025 on networks like Solana. That’s not a typo—we’re talking about 99.9% cost reduction.


🇪🇺 vs 🇺🇸 TALE OF TWO SYSTEMS: •EU PSD2: Banks must provide data access “without compensation” •US approach: JPM charging per-transaction fees •Result: European fintech innovation thrives while US banks gatekeep their own customers’ data


📊 THE NUMBERS DON’T LIE: JPM claims $50M in fraud losses from aggregators. Sounds scary until you realize they made $49B in H1 2025 revenue. That’s 0.05% of their income. Meanwhile, they’re charging fees that could generate $300M annually from Plaid alone.


🚨 JPMorgan just exposed the real threat to traditional banking. While Europe treats customer data as free under PSD2, JPM is charging aggregators like Plaid $1.50 per authorization + $0.05-0.20 per data request. This isn’t about infrastructure costs—it’s about survival.


https://t.co/7YQKP9bcpg @jas_shah Excellent breakdown of how there is going to be a reset in ‘value capture’ in payment space. Why JPM’s “data tax” is really about protecting $49B in interchange revenue from the stablecoin revolution brought by Genius Act
