Ready or not: How wallet tech finally became usable

Crypto wallets used to be the worst part of the experience: clunky, confusing and terrifying to get wrong. In this episode, we sit down with Itamar Lesuisse, CEO of Ready (formerly Argent), to talk about how smart contract wallets, social recovery and sleek UX are finally making self-custody usable for real people. 

From staking Bitcoin on Starknet to spending stablecoins with a card, no seed phrase required, wallets are evolving into full onchain accounts. This is where crypto stops feeling like a risk and starts working as it should. Produced by Tonal Media.
