I work on the ledgering system at clear street and as far as I know we have no plans to do this. We evaluated it internally a few years ago and found that the account and transaction model was too different from ours to migrate over.

Hi Thomas, yes, I was there. However, this is something that Sachin and I subsequently discussed last year (Sachin recently provided the TPS footnote to be used in the report here). However, I understand that roadmap may since have changed, but this is to the best of my knowledge.
Hi -- Sachin here, one of the founders of Clear Street. To clarify:

- The investment in TigerBeetle was done personally, not through Clear Street.

- I'm no longer actively involved day-to-day as CTO at Clear Street, but while I was, TigerBeetle was a solution we very much had in mind as our volumes were increasing.

That said, roadmaps change, priorities shift, etc. If TigerBeetle existed when we started Clear Street, I very much would have used it, and saved me from many headaches.
