FedNow is extremely exciting, as is the development of local instant payment networks and I’m hoping they can eclipse card networks soon. Development in the US hasn’t been as fast as in other emerging markets though wrt their own networks
As for Venmo/Paypal interoperability across other fintechs is something they’re not supporting at the moment for instance I can’t send money to my friend who uses CashApp and have to use Zelle (so ultimately Zelle/banks win). But that being said they do have a large user base between their two platforms.
Paylias is more closer to the links you shared around instant payment systems, than Wise. In an ideal world, Wise would integrate Paylias’s APIs and issue you an alias that you could use to send/receive/pay money to a friend that uses another wallet.
The truth isnt as simple as you make it out to be. Pakistan was just handed into the control of a new government which seems to be taking a proactive stand with popular measures coming into play.
India is entering into election terms which could be the reason these tensions are escalating. Both countries using this to further their own political agendas. India crossed the Line of Control, Pakistan shot down and captured pilots. And just announced the release of said pilot(s). It seems that Pakistan has no interest in playing with fire, although they are confident in dealing with any threat that comes their way. Indias current government seems more interested in playing this game and spurring nationalistic fervor since that particular regime has a very real interest in getting reelected.
Both countries have intelligence agencies that probably fund terrorist camps. So blaming just one country is highly misguided.
But yes i agree with you, its very easy for outsiders to cheaply throw words in an article without deeply researching whats actually happening.
To refresh your memory, 40 Indian soldiers were killed in Kashmir. Jaish-e-Mohammed claimed responsibility for this attack and is known to be based out of Pakistan. So blaming Pakistan is not misguided at all.
This is new- 'India has terrorist camps' lol.
Your own foreign minister admits terrorist Masood Azhar live in Pakistan(whose brother hijacked Indian plane which everyone in the world knows).
Worked on Safepay, (Venmo for Pakistan). Got the iOS app built and integrated it with Cybersource for visa/MasterCard transactions, and all the banks in Pakistan for bank-to-bank transfers. Currently working on the Android app. Great way to learn how money moves in traditional finance
What does mean for the US economy in terms of exports to the UK and larger EU countries? The pound drops sharply (~15%). The Euro down to $1.08. Does this mean that a stronger dollar will negatively impact US exports?

From TFA (http://www.cell.com/cell-metabolism/fulltext/S1550-4131(15)0...): The development of the human diet took into account feasibility (e.g., high adherence to the dietary protocol) and therefore was designed to last 5 days every month and to provide between 34% and 54% of the normal caloric intake with a composition of at least 9%–10% proteins, 34%–47% carbohydrates, and 44%–56% fat.
