Min Kuang

Founder

Digital One Asset Corp.

The next phase of crypto adoption is regulation-driven, infrastructure-led, and institution-powered.

​

BitGo sits right at the center of that shift.

BitGo is a leading digital asset infrastructure provider. It offers custody, wallets, staking, trading, financing, and settlement from regulated cold storage.

 

BitGo has focused on institutional clients since 2013 and now serves over 1,500 institutions across over 50 countries.It is the largest independent digital asset custodian.

 

My main interest is in Custody-as-a-Service, Stablecoin-as-a-Service, and Crypto-as-a-Service, which aligns well with my recent work and presentations to institutional clients.

​

I have over ten years of experience across traditional finance, fintech, and digital assets.

​

I started my career in investment banking and worked closely with institutional clients, so I’m very familiar with risk management, compliance, and how institutions make decisions.

 

Over the past eight years, I’ve mainly focused on advisory work. My clients include public companies, family offices, foundations, large corporates, and high-net-worth clients, especially around digital asset adoption.

 

KEY WORDS
2025 shift · infrastructure > speculation · institutional adoption · stablecoins · regulation · custody-first · BitGo

2025 marked a clear shift in crypto from speculation to infrastructure.

The market reached an all-time high of around 4.2 trillion dollars,driven by institutional adoption rather than hype.

​

Stablecoins scaled globally,with market cap growing over 50  percent and transaction volumes reaching roughly 50 trillion dollars, while regulatory clarity began to take shape through frameworks like the GENIUS Act. In that environment, BitGo stands out as core institutional infrastructure —
with an OCC trust charter,over 90 billion dollars in assets under custody, and a global regulatory footprint.

​

 Institutions are clearly moving toward a custody-first model,
and that’s why BitGo is the right platform for the next phase of institutional adoption.

I have an MBA and leadership training from Columbia University and London Business School, which helps me communicate effectively with senior decision-makers.

qualify interest · educate · solution & structure design · cross-functional · close · long-term

My approach is very structured and institutional. First, I qualify real interest and readiness —whether a client is serious and aligned
from a governance and compliance perspective.

Second, I focus on education. I use decks, seminars, and workshops to help stakeholders understand the use case, risks, and structure
before any product discussion.

Third, I move into solution and structure design. That could involve custody onboarding, financing structures, or broader crypto services.

From there, I work closely with cross-functional teams —compliance, legal, operations, and product —to make sure the solution is executable.

Finally, once everything is aligned, I move toward closing and onboarding, with a focus on long-term relationships rather than quick wins.

Institutional Case Portfolio — LQwD + xTAO
public companies · investor education · financing advisory · USDT / USDC · custody-first · compliance · governance
 
I’ve worked with public companies on institutional digital asset adoption
across both investor education and financing advisory.
 
With LQwD Technologies Corp.,
my role was focused on investor relations and institutional education. I worked with their IR team to host investor-focused events and created presentation materials explaining the Bitcoin application economy, helping high-net-worth and institutional investors understand enterprise-grade Lightning infrastructure.
 
With xTAO Inc.,
my role was financing advisory work for a public company. During their listing and private placement process,
the term sheet already specified custody arrangements for USDT- and USDC-based financing.
Before engaging investors, I reviewed their compliance setup and corporate governance. As part of that process, I helped coordinate introductory conversations with potential counterparties around USDT-based financing structures, with a focus on governance, treasury structure, and execution readiness.
 
In addition, while my focus is institutional, I’m very familiar with the full wallet stack —having onboarded over one hundred individuals onto hardware and hot wallets, and having hands-on experience with BitGo’s hot  wallet. That ground-level understanding helps me communicate clearly
when discussing institutional custody, wallet operations, and governance. Together, these cases show how public companies actually adopt digital assets — starting with education, and moving to financing only after custody, compliance, and governance are firmly in place.
​MNEE Pay
 

I would structure the first 60 days around two parallel priorities:
market expansion and merchant value creation.

 

First, on market expansion. Partnership building    solid  infrastructure
I would deploy MNEE Pay into regions where stablecoin payments are already widely used, rather than trying to educate cold markets.


Today, USDT and USDC are already part of everyday commerce in parts of Southeast Asia — such as Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand — and in Latin America, including Brazil. and Europe
These markets allow us to validate real payment behavior, settlement reliability, and merchant workflows very quickly.

 

In parallel, I would select one or two locations in Canada or the U.S. purely for experimental and educational pilots — focused on partner alignment and visibility, not scale.
 

Second, on merchant value and incentives.
Adoption depends on economics, not technology.

I would work with the team to design a clear merchant economics and sharing module for MNEE Pay — similar to what we see with settlement-focused stablecoin networks.
 

This means presenting, very clearly on the website and during onboarding:

  • how settlement works,

  • how fees compare to traditional payment rails,

  • and where MNEE creates economic benefits for merchants.
     

The goal in the first 60 days is not volume.
It’s proof of market fit, merchant understanding, and repeatable deployment playbooks.






Anchorage
My background is in institutional, solution-based selling across fintech, crypto, and financial infrastructure.
At Digital One, we don’t sell standalone products — we sell compliant solutions that combine strategy, integration, and execution. The focus is always on outcomes rather than individual tools.

I work primarily with institutional clients such as investors, venture funds, family offices, foundations, and emerging public-company structures. These engagements are not transactional. They are consultative and structured as package deals that combine financing advisory, capital introduction, and Web3 infrastructure strategy.

For example, in one engagement with xTAO, the client raised approximately USD 10 million via USDT. I advised on the overall financing structure, introduced institutional investors, and guided the client through custody architecture design, including evaluating providers such as BitGo and Fireblocks, so they could select the most appropriate solution.

The scope covered investment banking and financing advisory, custody and stablecoin adoption strategy, Web3 infrastructure guidance, and institutional onboarding. Across these engagements, I own the full sales cycle — sourcing, solution design, pricing, closing, and execution support.

I want to join Anchorage Digital because the global crypto market has clearly moved into an institutional phase, with increasing emphasis on compliance, regulated infrastructure, and trusted platforms. Institutions are no longer experimenting — they are looking for long-term partners.

Anchorage represents the kind of institution-grade platform where I can fully apply my skill set in selling complex, consultative blockchain solutions at scale. By joining Anchorage, I can focus on one trusted platform, build long-term institutional relationships, and help expand adoption across Canada, the U.S., and Asia — aligned with where the market is going.

​

Slide 1 — Title / Opening

What you say:

“Thanks for the time. I’ll walk through how I see MNEE Pay scaling distribution and economics over the next 90 days — focusing on what we can execute immediately, not theory.”

​

Slide 2 — About Min Kuang

What you say:

“Quick background so you know where I’m coming from.
I’ve worked across regulated digital asset infrastructure, payments, custody, and merchant onboarding — mainly bridging institutions with real-world adoption.”

 

Slide 3 — One-Line GTM Thesis

What you say (slow, confident):

“The core idea is simple:
We don’t need to create new stablecoin behavior.
We follow existing USDT and USDC flows, and position MNEE Pay as the settlement and treasury layer that improves merchant economics.”

(Stop. Let it land.)

 

Slide 4 — Why Now (Market Reality)

What you say:

“Stablecoin payments are already happening globally.
What’s broken isn’t demand — it’s settlement speed, cost, and merchant incentives.
That’s the gap MNEE Pay is designed to solve.”

 

Slide 5 — PayPal & Native Stablecoin Rails

What you say:

“PayPal validated the model: stablecoins as payment rails.
But PayPal optimizes for acceptance.
MNEE optimizes for settlement economics — instant, sub-cent, and yield-aware.”

 

Slide 6 — Clear Positioning

What you say:

“So the positioning is very clean:
PayPal equals acceptance.
MNEE equals settlement infrastructure plus economics.”

 

Slide 7 — What MNEE Pay Actually Is

What you say:

“MNEE Pay is a custodial merchant wallet designed for businesses — no seed phrases, fully recoverable, and controlled inside the merchant portal.”

 

Slide 8 — Merchant Control & Safety

What you say:

“Merchants always control balances, settlement, and off-ramps — without operational crypto complexity.”

 

Slide 9 — Economics Advantage

What you say:

“This unlocks sub-1% processing economics — directly competing with 3–4% card rails — while keeping settlement instant.”

 

Slide 10 — Distribution Reality

What you say:

“Distribution matters more than protocol design.
So the GTM focus is embedding MNEE Pay where merchants already operate — POS, QR, online checkout.”

 

Slide 11 — Merchant Funnel

What you say:

“The funnel is simple and repeatable:
Lead → integration → first settlement → retention.”

 

Slide 12 — Initial Success Criteria

What you say:

“In the first phase, success isn’t scale — it’s proof:
3–5 active merchants, real volume, real settlement.”

 

Slide 13 — Segment Strategy

What you say:

“We prioritize economics-driven segments first — food, consumer platforms, marketplaces.
Charities and associations come later as acceptance use cases.”

 

Slide 14 — Geographic Focus

What you say:

“We start where stablecoins are already used daily — parts of Asia and Europe — plus one North America pilot for visibility.”

 

Slide 15 — Visa Card Expansion

What you say:

“Visa cards remain the fastest global acceptance layer.
Using partners like Rain or Bridge lets MNEE extend instantly to 150M+ merchants.”

 

Slide 16 — Liquidity & Wallet Distribution

What you say:

“Listing on wallets like Bitget expands liquidity and access — especially with fiat on-ramps already integrated.”

 

Slide 17 — Use Cases

What you say:

“Primary use cases are events, travel, cross-border spending, and major moments like FIFA 2026 — where speed and cost matter.”

 

Slide 18 — Infrastructure Readiness (Reference Only)

What you say (neutral tone):

“This slide is purely reference — it shows infrastructure options already available in the ecosystem.
No decision required here.”

(Important: don’t debate.)

 

Slide 19 — What This Enables

What you say (closing tone):

“Net-net, MNEE Pay is ready to execute.
The focus now is disciplined GTM — merchants, settlement, and economics — then scale.”

 

✅ How to End Smoothly

If he nods:

“Happy to go deeper into any section — or discuss where you’d like to focus first.”

If he pauses:

“Where would you like to drill down?”
