Episode notes

At what point will we be able to have these crypto on-rails and blockchain technologies that not everyone knows they're using it, but it's implemented in our everyday ecosystem beyond just the crypto community? I think it also depends where. In the United States, if you have dollar-based banking, you have Apple Pay, there are not really significant problems on a day-to-day basis. But when we talk to entrepreneurs and consumers in Nigeria and Tanzania and Argentina, there's a lot of demand to just access dollars.

For this week’s Tuesday episode where we chat with a web3 expert (or three), we’re playing a recording of our discussion live on stage with Brett Harrison, former president of FTX, Mary-Catherine Lader, COO of Uniswap and Cuy Sheffield, head of crypto at Visa, at TechCrunch Disrupt. We chatted about:

Brett Harrison’s next plans
How the crypto startup world is evolving
Advice for founders amid a bear market
Regulatory gaps and current hurdles
Ways Web2 and Web3 businesses are working together

If you enjoyed this interview, you’ll have a chance to hear us talk with some of the biggest names in crypto at our event in Miami this week on November 17th.
