Shopify CEO Tobi Lutke has plunged down the Ethereum rabbit hole.

The boss of Canada’s most valuable public company recently tweeted about spending his whole morning learning about smart contracts and the ERC20 token standard:

Speaking of crypto though- I spent the morning dabbling with ETH Smart Contracts. Mainly to understand how ERC20 works better. Fascinating world.

Later, Lutke asked Twitter about commerce-related opportunities presented by decentralized finance.

Jill Carlson of Slow Ventures proposed integrating stablecoin payments and facilitating merchant fundraising via compliant token sales. Crypto investor David Iach further suggested enabling staking, which would allow buying goods with yield.  

Last week, Visa integrated Circle’s USDC stablecoin into its settlement network.      

Crypto-esque growth

As reported by U.Today, Shopify partnered with CoinPayments to allow its merchants to get paid in crypto last May.

The stock of the “Canadian Amazon” is itself reminiscent of a cryptocurrency, soaring over 500 percent in less than two years.     

Last year, Shopify surpassed Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) to become the most valuable public company in the country.

Now, in case someone is still confused, none of these institutions, and not a single of the erudite officials running them, give a rat's ass about the climate, about climate change risks, or about the fate of future generations of Americans (and certainly not about the rising water level sweeping away their massive waterfront mansions): if they did, total US debt and underfunded liabilities wouldn't be just shy of $160 trillion.
