Lance Parker, president and CEO of Alexander Baldwin, discussed his background and the development of Bankex in a September 2022 video. He described studying at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and George Mason University, and operating a vending machine company during college. Parker stated that he purchased the Bankex domain in 2017 to create a mechanism for corporate treasuries and high-net-worth individuals to back commodity trades using the Paxos USD stablecoin. He said that after the cryptocurrency market crash and the pandemic shutdown, he decided to create a fully decentralized stablecoin integrated with Bankex.

He added that with $10 million in additional funding, an alpha version of the system could be deployed within 12 months.
