๐ฅ What happens when two freshman-year students from MIT and Stanford walk away from elite universities to fix one of the biggest problems in global finance?
In this episode of What the Heck, Fintech (Fintech is FinLife), I sit down with Simmi Sen and Jensen Coonradt, the bold co-founders of Crebit, to unpack their journey from college dropouts to fintech disruptors.
๐ We explore how Crebit is revolutionizing payments for international students, eliminating high fees, slow transfers, and broken cross-border systems using stablecoins. From tuition and rent to everyday expenses, Simmi and Jensen explain how blockchain-powered payments can finally make global money movement fast, affordable, and fair.
