What if sending money across the world was as simple, free, and instant as making a phone call? In this episode, Samora Kariuki sits down with Mike Hudack, CEO of Sling, to discuss how his company is using stablecoins and blockchain technology to build a global,social financial network that moves beyond the friction of traditional banking.

Topics covered include:

● The future of money is on-chain and borderless

● Building a "directory" to solve the anxiety of sending to anonymous wallet addresses

● The core difference between traditional financial rails and a shared blockchain ledger

● How to build a sustainable business model on free peer-to-peer transfers
