In what might be our most meta episode yet, Pål, Ville, and Janne sat down to unpack the biggest Nordic fintech stories of September — only to realize halfway through that we’d forgotten to hit record. So yes, this episode is technically the sequel to the lost masterpiece that no one will ever hear.

Once we finally remembered to press the big red button, things got back on track (mostly). Ville’s voice barely survived another deep dive into stablecoins — a topic now reaching “say it one more time and I scream” levels. Pål compared digital euros and euro stablecoins like a true survivor of SIBOS, and Janne tried to restore order with AI funding rounds, Revolut’s Nordic comeback, and an ePassi expansion story that proves the Finns can scale just fine without the metaverse.

There’s even the obligatory terrible fintech joke, a bit of croaky small talk, and an awkward realization that maybe we talk about stablecoins more than our families.

All in all: it’s chaotic, it’s geeky, it’s pure Fintech Daydreaming — take two.
