Description

For the tenth episode of the BlockChain Reaction podcast, I spoke with Holger Arians. He's the CEO of Banxa (OTCPK:BNXAF); which is a crypto business that works with self-custodial wallet applications to provide an on/off ramp platform for on-chain wallet addresses. Banxa has wallet integration with MetaMask, Ledger and Trezor among others.

Topics we covered during the podcast include but are not limited to:

• Entering crypto as a BTC miner
• Changing from mining to on-ramp platform
• What the process is like at the user level
• Competing with PSPs
• Being an advocate for regulation
• Navigating what is currently a hostile regulatory environment
• The journey to becoming a publicly listed crypto business
• Why the company's filings have been delayed
• Being chain-agnostic while Bitcoin eats the alts
• NFTs being a gateway to crypto rails
• Adapting organizational structures with blockchain
• Remittances are the still the big innovation of crypto

With the latest regulatory developments impacting Coinbase (COIN) as a backdrop, I thought this was a very eye-opening discussion. This was a fun discussion and I hope you guys enjoy it.
