Why Money Gets Lost in Translation — And How Global Payments Are Fixing It

For decades, the global financial system has been a Tower of Babel, with banks, wallets, and blockchains each speaking their own language, unable to work together efficiently. This fragmentation has caused massive inefficiencies, trapping billions of dollars in dead money and excluding billions of people from the global economy.

In this episode, Chloé discusses the rise of the mobile-first economy, why stablecoins are the key to 24/7 liquidity, and how strict compliance became her competitive advantage in building a network that reaches 7 billion endpoints.
