Parker Lewis, Educator, Author and Head of Business Development at Zaprite, shares his journey into the world of Bitcoin and the importance of Bitcoin payments. He discusses his background in traditional financial services and how he became skeptical but eventually came to understand the problems with the legacy financial system.
Parker emphasizes the need for Bitcoin to be both a store of value and a medium of exchange, and how Bitcoin payments are essential for businesses. He introduces Zaprite as a payment gateway that enables businesses to accept Bitcoin payments seamlessly, without the need to change their custody methods. Zaprite aims to make it easy for anyone, regardless of technical knowledge, to accept Bitcoin as payment.
