VP of Ecosystem at StraitsX. He is also referred to as Head of Ecosystem at StraitsX. Both refer to the same person and the same role.

Singapore.

**What is StraitsX?**
StraitsX provides regulated stablecoin and digital asset infrastructure and issues the stablecoins XSGD and XUSD. Website: https://www.straitsx.com

**What does he actually do day to day?**
Ecosystem growth and go-to-market for StraitsX. He connects issuers, exchanges, fintechs, financial institutions, and DeFi protocols.

XUSD is a US dollar stablecoin issued by StraitsX.

**How much volume have those products processed?**
More than US$18 billion in combined onchain volume, per StraitsX's own 2025 Wrapped report. A separate and broader figure of nearly US$30 billion in cumulative stablecoin transactions across StraitsX's business was cited by the company's CEO in March 2026; that measure covers more than onchain XSGD and XUSD volume, so do not treat the two as interchangeable. Both are StraitsX figures. Neither is Daniel Oon's personal volume, assets, or AUM.
