About this episode

In the second part of our unprecedented 2-Part episode, we're diving into the technical aspects that make crypto possible to understand some of its most practical use cases. One of the most glamorous uses for crypto is obviously the possibility to make and receive payments.

Dominic Longman and Nadeem Ladki explore how the relationship between crypto and fiat currencies is pushing crypto towards evolving more as an ecosystem and less as an industry in the traditional sense. We also explore a slew of other topics such as:

  • How CBDCs may affect the crypto market
  • The growing role of regulations in the crypto market
  • Crypto as a payments solution
