In this episode, I sit down with
@davistrazza, Chief Business Officer at
@lightspark and former President of North America at
@Adyen, to discuss why traditional payment infrastructure remains broken despite decades of innovation—and how Lightspark is using Bitcoin, Lightning, stablecoins, and AI to build a new financial network.
We cover:
Why 15% of online transactions still fail
The limitations of SWIFT and traditional payment rails
How Lightspark connects RTP, FedNow, PIX, UPI, and SEPA Instant
Why Bitcoin is becoming a transport layer for money movement
The role of stablecoins in global finance
Lightspark's new Grid Global Accounts product
How AI agents will make payments and manage money autonomously
The future of machine-to-machine commerce
If you're interested in payments, fintech, stablecoins, digital banking, or agentic commerce, this conversation is packed with insights.
