Are stablecoins the future or present of payment infrastructure? 🚀 Check out the full podcast hosted by @SamoraKariuki where Eytan Messika and I spend an hour talking through the present, the future, challenges, and opportunities in the rapidly evolving stablecoin ecosystem. @rafiki_api @NALAmoney
80% Present - the time is now
20% Future - some years to go
0% Fiat forever!

Stablecoins have come up in dozens of conversation I’ve had over the past few weeks. I still think we’re a long way from on-chain fully replacing traditional rails (until there’s better off ramping). That said, here are two use cases that make total sense to me today 👇

2024: A Year to Remember at @NALAmoney and @rafiki_api 🚀 As we close out the year, I couldn’t be prouder of the incredible team we’ve built at NALA and RAFIKI. Together, we not only achieved what we set out to do but outperformed our own goals 🙌 2024 has been nothing short of very hard, but, extraordinary, and it’s all thanks to the hard work, passion, and relentless drive of this team. 2025? It’s going to be our biggest and best year yet—and I couldn’t be more excited! 💥 Here’s a quick look back at what we accomplished this year: 📌 17x Revenue growth in 20 months, 10x Revenue growth in 12 months. 📌 Becoming Profitable 🔥 📌 Raising $40m Series A To everyone who’s been part of this journey—our team, partners, and community—thank you.
