Scaling Ethereum Could be the Answer for CBDCs and Web3 Ecosystem

When you are a content aggregator and you want to enable crypto payments for creators located all around the world, what do you do? Build a brand new layer-2 blockchain of course! Well probably not most of us, but that’s exactly what the team at Nahmii has undertaken.

In this episode, Ian Andrews (Chief Marketing Officer, Chainalysis) is joined by Jacobo Toll-Messia (CEO, Nahmii) to understand what makes Nahmii so useful and what’s new in the just released 3.0 version of the technology.

Interestingly some of the first customers for the Nahmii platform are central banks looking to launch CBDCs. The platform is particularly well suited to governments and financial institutions who want to implement permissioned blockchain technology.
