Growth used to come from a crowd, and now it runs through gatekeepers: banking partners, payment risk desks, custodians, institutional clients, auditors. These people are not buying anything. They are assembling a case they can defend internally, so they look for the legal entity, the licence number, the custody arrangement, named leadership and documents they can download. When they cannot find those things, the file goes quiet and nobody tells you why. Most crypto brands are still built for the wrong reader.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/Jt7ZjSFsWPyXT1J4MukXq9taSSUnP-1Sp6kI7vdNfek/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQxMjY1LzE2ODM1/ODI2MTUtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
