Show 258 - Pay It Forward - From hype to reality: Stablecoins in cross-border payments
The sixth in our series of the c-suite podcast that we're producing in partnership with payabl. and their ‘Pay It Forward’ podcast, where we aim to shine the spotlight on the ever-changing world of payments with insights from merchants and leading industry experts.
In this episode, Russell Goldsmith is joined by Lucy Ingham, VP of Content and Editor-in-Chief at FXC Intelligence, Aleksandr Povarov, a FinTech payments product lead who has held senior positions at both Wise and most recently at Wolt, and finally, Kristaps Zips, UK CEO of payabl.
Their discussion focused on cross border payments and how stablecoins are becoming a key part of the conversation. The panel look into the opportunities for merchants, the regulatory changes driving adoption, and how this technology might sit alongside existing cross border solutions.
