🇮🇳 India is racing towards a $10 trillion economy. But what if the biggest financial revolution of our lifetime quietly moves ahead… without us? In our latest podcast, @Subhashgarg1960 , former Finance Secretary of India, sat down with host @abhinavagrwl94 , Co-Founder & COO of @CoinGapeMedia , to ask the questions most people avoid asking. What followed was unexpected 👇 ▪️ Why Bitcoin may NOT work as India’s national reserve ▪️ Why stablecoins could shape India’s financial future ▪️ Whether today’s crypto environment is actually safe for Indian investors 🚫 No hype. 🚫 No narratives. ✅ Just policy-level thinking from someone who helped design India’s financial system; guided by leaders building India’s crypto media ecosystem. If you’re building in #Web3, investing in digital assets, or genuinely care about India’s economic direction, this conversation will make you stop and rethink. Because sometimes, progress doesn’t fail due to bad ideas, it fails because the system isn’t ready for them.
