Biography

David covers stablecoins, dollar plumbing, and the macro layer of crypto for TheWeal — Treasury-bill flows into stablecoin reserves, repo and money-market overlap, central-bank digital currency design, and the cross-border payment rails that institutional treasuries actually use.

Before joining TheWeal, David spent eight years in US Treasury rates trading and fixed-income research, modeling money-market collateral and front-end rates. He views stablecoins as money-market funds in disguise and writes from that frame.
