Today I am speaking with Arik Galansky, the Vice President of Technology at Fireblocks, which provides critical infrastructure that enables companies to securely build and operate blockchain-based businesses. The platform offers a unique combination of self-custody technology and security features that allow organizations to maintain control of their digital assets while simplifying operations.

Growing up in Israel, Arik developed an early passion for technology, beginning with programming games and solving computer problems. After serving eight years in the IDF, he went on to work in AI and machine learning, spending nearly a decade leading engineering teams at HiredScore before joining Fireblocks in 2021.

During our conversation, Arik shares insights on the challenges of blockchain security, the delicate balance between user experience and decentralization, and his perspective on the intersection of AI and blockchain technology. He also discusses Fireblocks' approach to self-custody and their role as "invisible infrastructure" enabling the next generation of blockchain businesses.
