What if a “stable” coin wasn’t? Blake and David unpack Paxos’s accidental minting of $300 trillion in PayPal USD—and what it reveals about stablecoin “pegs.” They also dig into proposals to weaponize IRS Criminal Investigations, NASBA’s flawed CPA exam data, and small-business headaches from forced AI rollouts in QuickBooks. Plus: Ripple’s treasury move, whether AI can run a $1M solo firm, and smart guardrails for using AI without breaking your books.
