Happy New Year! Stablecoin rails are now the default across payments and payouts, and the crypto layer increasingly reads like the "normal Web" (aka Web2). In 2026, our focus is simple: help you deploy capital faster and more efficiently while we handle the operational heavy lifting behind the scenes.
Two worlds are merging. Web3 is quietly merging with Web2: more teams pay and get paid on crypto rails, assets are moving onchain, and the tech is fading into the background where it should.
Time is ticking. Conferences still matter, but travel among industry professionals is seemingly consolidating into a few high-signal gatherings and invite-only forums. Expect fewer, denser touchpoints, and more execution between them.
GCRx helps you spin up stablecoin-native & fiat SPVs, wherever your LPs are.
Whether you’re starting a small syndicate or scaling a venture arm, we handle the ops and settlement so you can focus on allocation. See GCRx Early Access for Syndicates.
Q4 vs Q3 at a glance:
140+ SPVs to date (from 130+, ~+8%)
29 deals published on @gcrx_bot (from 24, ~+21%)
$25M+ capital deployed / AUM (from $22M+, ~+14%)
165+ LinkedIn subscribers (from 100+, ~+65%)
2.3k+ followers across all social channels
The signal is sharpening across both investor and builder circles. The Global Coin Research outlook and a16z crypto’s "Big Ideas 2026" land on similar themes, with different angles worth tracking.
Stablecoin everything. Payments, payouts, and commerce rails move to always-on settlement, with consumer UX that feels like Web2. Expect more merchant acceptance, payroll, and marketplace flows to normalize on stablecoins.
RWAs and onchain capital formation. Treasuries, credit, and private equity move to programmable ownership with cleaner distribution. Live cap tables and streaming cash flows are shifting from demo to default.
Agents with wallets. AI agents that can hold balances, sign transactions, and operate workflows will change both consumer apps and back office ops. The early wins are payments, support, and procurement.
Consumer apps that stick. Social, gaming, and creator tools are leaning into onchain value loops and interoperable identity, not speculation. Surfaces get simpler, retention improves.
Programmable trust. Compliance, identity, and privacy are becoming features, not roadblocks, enabling larger institutions to interact with the same rails retail already uses.
We will be at the largest crypto conferences and will host a set of focused gatherings through the year. Expect us at TOKEN2049 and other, with more details about our invite-only events soon. If you want to compare notes or scope a fast SPV for your next round, email us directly and we will find time.
Invest together.
Best,
Arthur and the GCRx Team

New habits for an always-on cycle. Turn it off. Or turn it on. 2026 will reward clear priorities over constant presence. Depth beats noise, and the compounding edges are operational, not performative.
