What to listen for



  • Why Fiat to Crypto on-ramps are so awful and how payment providers squeeze both sides of transactions.
  • How archaic payments rules punish crypto for being high-risk and increase transaction costs for fiat on-ramps.
  • Why payment providers are using data analytics (Googgle-style) to reduce fraud and underwrite risk.
  • Why everything comes back to device-based security and wallet security protocols.
  • Why changes in European payments regulation will make it harder to get credit as credit issuers become liable for fraudulent transactions, not your bank or merchants.
  • What Wyre will be focusing in 2020.
  • Why MakerDao should be more transparent about their near-term and long-term goals.
  • Why Bitcoin halving will create ‘buy the rumour, sell the news’ volatility as more people fight over reduced supply.
  • Why globally distributed teams are more productive than being in San Francisco.
