We’ve come a long way from the first Bitcoin real-world purchase for two pizzas in 2010. Now, there’s not much you can’t buy from retailers with BTC or a crypto-powered card. Even payment giants used by millions of people daily are now embracing crypto solutions.

But what can we expect looking into the next decade of crypto payments, and what are the challenges we need to face? Join us in our fourth Binance Live episode to find out more about the world of crypto payments and exactly where the innovation is taking place.

1 / Reshaping the payments landscape with cryptocurrencies 

Cryptocurrency adoption has skyrocketed over the past decade. We’ve already seen the differences it can make, but where will this growing popularity take us? In this conversation, our panel will discuss how blockchain will reshape the financial and payments landscape over the next 10 years.

Joining us will be: Igor Bokiy, CEO of SettlePay; Damien Patureaux, CEO & Co-founder at Lyzi; plus Eralp Hatipogolu, CEO & Co-founder at Citypay.io.

2 / Overcoming crypto challenges and blockchain barriers

After discussing a brighter crypto payments future, we’ll then move on to the challenges we need to tackle. What are the main points needed for the widespread adoption of cryptocurrency payments by businesses and consumers? Blockchain often has unique solutions, so these will need to be leveraged as much as possible.

Joining this panel will be: Eric Barbier, Founder & CEO of Triple-A; Pakning Luk, Regional Head of Business Development at Binance; plus Romain Colnet, Innovation Business Development Manager at INGENICO.

3 / Leveraging blockchain’s advantages in payments

We’ve already seen the long list of advantages blockchain can bring to the payments sector. But how else can we use this technology to make even quicker, cheaper, and faster payments accessible to all? This discussion will see us look at innovative ways we can use cryptocurrencies to improve the global payments situation. When it comes to crypto payments, what’s attractive to vendors currently, and what isn’t?

Discussing the topic will be: Dmitri Verbovski, CEO at Yesim.app; plus Athina Apostolou, Head of Legal and Compliance for APS Group at Advanced Payment Solutions Group.
