New episode of All About Blockchain 🎧
Ripple SVP @ericvanm sat down with @DuffieDarrell from @StanfordGSB and discussed the importance of privacy, tokenized treasuries, stablecoins, and why AI making payments on your behalf might be closer than you think.
A great listen for builders, regulators, and the curious.
