Luther Maday and Ramy Soliman talk with Aishwarya Gupta and Jamal Raees from Polygon Labs about their payments roadmap, the Tempo launch, and the Rio upgrade that boosts scalability to 5,000 TPS. They discuss why interoperability—not fragmentation—will shape the future of stablecoin payments and how Polygon is positioning itself for real-world assets (RWA).

The episode also covers the “Stablecoin Wars”, Tether’s USAT move, and global regulation from the Genius Act to MiCA. Aishwarya and Jamal share insights on adoption trends, specialized chains, and advice for traditional finance entering the space, plus real-world use cases like Polymarket.
