[00:16:51] S0: And without a full US banking license, they're locked out of the most profitable financial market in the world. No credit cards, no mortgages, no business lending. And the road to a $100,000,000,000 will be impossible. That's why this isn't just a hurdle. It's the hurdle. The single biggest barrier between Revolut and the title of the world's first truly global bank. And interestingly, that brings us back to the IPO. Because to secure this license, Revolut doesn't just need regulatory approval. They need trust from US lawmakers, corporate clients, and institutional investors. And becoming a publicly traded company could be the final piece of the puzzle. Because without that license, none of this will happen. Revolut is never played by the rules of traditional banking. They've scaled faster, launched more products and expanded into more markets than almost any financial company in history. But this is different. This isn't about growing fast. It's about growing big And to reach $100,000,000,000 everything has to scale. Lending, wealth management, business finance, global investment banking, AI powered financial services, and The US market will all have to grow. And that is an insane list of goals. But Revolut isn't just another fintech. They're a company built on insane ambitions by founders with insane dreams. And if anyone can pull this off, it's them.
