Most of our best hires have come from our graduate trainee program. The "experienced" hires. Not always great outcomes especially when they are from multinationals or larges firms.

Half a million raised. But this isn’t about capital. It’s about unlocking millions of untold stories, unheard voices and bringing the best of human imaginations to life. Jamit is building the AI-native storytelling platform where creators: - Go from idea to IP - Own their content - Monetize globally with stablecoins - Build communities, not audiences Backed by @lavavc_ , CV VC @CV_Labs , @LiskDAO , @microtraction , @TheBatchery + operators from Roku & Replit. Audio is entering its A24 era. Let’s build.

Excited to see NALA named to the Forbes Fintech 50 for the 2nd year running. Behind the scenes, we’ve evolved into stablecoin-enabled payments faster settlement, stronger unit economics, and more reliable rails into Africa & Asia. RAFIKI is closing some of the largest B2B contracts in our history as global partners adopt better rails for emerging market payouts. Still early. Still building. Still cooking. Building Payments for #TheNextBillion 🦁

Happy to bring second place back to Rwanda, thanks to Venture Z, all the way from Saudi Arabia. Thank you, @Lisk and @CV_Labs, for being part of our journey. People asked me, king, what would have happened if you never won… I guess we’ll never know.

@Nick_van_Eck Couldn’t agree more - but also interestingly is if you can hedge/underwrite currency risk appropriately they become a very appealing source of yield (EM SME private credit for example)

Inflation slowing to 12% “gives scope for rate cuts.” Emerging markets will continue to be a massive market for stablecoin-based apps. Internet capital markets.

Where we see this persist is with founders who come from a “crypto” vs fintech background who don’t understand the regulatory implications and pre requisites to operate a business in the financial services space. The fintech founders have a regulatory first approach and over engineering of compliance adherence even when there are grey areas

Some non-KYC fintech builders know they're dodging compliance. Most don't. But none of them see the real risk, the massive fraud surface area it creates.
