| 0:00.0 | I believe a year from now when we meet, we're going to talk about the adoption of real world |
| 0:06.0 | use cases at scale. Like I'm talking massive scale with tens of millions, if not hundreds of |
| 0:13.0 | millions of users all using these apps to solve real world problems. And I think that we're just |
| 0:18.2 | right there right now. It's almost like we can smell it and touch it. |
| 0:24.0 | And it's a world I'm very excited for. |
| 0:32.2 | Welcome to Gen C. Sam here. |
| 0:34.6 | I am excited to bring this conversation to you. |
| 0:36.5 | We heard news this week about Western |
| 0:39.3 | Union dipping their toes into crypto. They made a deal with Solana. This deal can potentially |
| 0:44.6 | bring stable coins across the globe to the over 500,000 locations that Western Union has. |
| 0:51.2 | This is a big deal because Western Union is the top player in the game for sending |
| 0:54.7 | money across borders. But we have over the years spent some time with MoneyGram. And MoneyGram |
| 1:00.5 | is a very close second, something like 450,000 locations around the world. And they've been |
| 1:05.6 | playing the crypto space now for years. So they actually have a big advantage in order to sort of |
| 1:10.1 | take on this opportunity. And I'm sure that Western Union looks at that and says, we got to play this game too. So a few weeks ago, I sat down with Anthony Suu, the new CEO of MoneyGram in Rio, live at Stellar Meridian. And I thought it'd be great time to play this conversation. So after the break, come back, hear my conversation with Anthony |
| 1:28.0 | Suu from MoneyGram as we talk all things, crypto, stable coins, cross-water payments, and we don't |
| 1:33.2 | really get into Western Union, but I'm really excited for the fact that MoneyGram has this |
| 1:36.6 | first mover advantage. And my guess is they are positioned to really succeed. And Western Union |
| 1:42.2 | coming in actually just validates their premise. So we'll see you on the other side of the break. Break the cycle of exploitation. Break down the barriers to truth. Break into the next generation of privacy. Break free. Free to scroll without being monetized. Free from censorship. Freedom without fear. We deserve more when it comes to privacy. Experience the next generation of blockchain that is private and inclusive by design. |
