#67 Web3 and crypto in 2022 – a conversation with Ran Neuner.

Welcome to The Fintech Founder Journey, where we explore great FinTech products, businesses and leaders.I’m your host, Mike Scott, co-Founder and CEO of Nona Digital. Nona Digital is an expert firm that accelerates product development for FinTech & Blockchain scaleups.In today's show, I’m joined again by Ran Neuner from Crypto Banter and we are going to be talking about crypto and Web3 in the context of 2022. ______________________________________Today's episode is sponsored by Nona Digital.Working with us to accelerate your FinTech product means you get access to our expert product squads that cover development, UI and UX, product ownership and architecture, and that have been building products together for a very long time.You get the benefit of a 40 person studio that is big enough for no key person dependencies to exist but small enough so that you are always close to one of the principals. And, you get the benefit of our reusable component library which means we are often able to build your product faster than anyone else could at a comparable standard.As one of our clients said, “Nona is the type of business that paints the back of the wardrobe…because if you want to be the best, that's the sort of thing that you do”.To get in touch with one of our principals or myself, head over to our website to book a call directly.______________________________________I’m joined again today by Ran Neuner, host of Crypto Banter and one of the biggest crypto YouTube channels. They have grown to just under 540k subscribers. He is essentially becoming the Blomberg of crypto. One of the main differences with Ran, and the reason I follow his content, is that he was a massively successful entrepreneur before he even got into the crypto space. He built and sold The Creative Council which ended up being the largest deal of its time in Africa. Ran is also a CA and a very smart guy.Today’s show is not going to be so much about a founder's journey, but more about what we might expect to see in the Web3 space for the year ahead and how it relates to Fintech.We will try to keep the jargon to a minimum, but if you hear terms that you don't recognise, google them and you’ll likely go down a rabbit hole that will be, at a minimum pretty interesting.Before I welcome Ran, I want to be clear that nothing on this show is financial advice. Neither myself nor Ran are financial advisors and it needs to be said that this space is very very risky. Welcome back, Ran. Thanks for making the time. ________________________________________________Thanks for listening to the show!  If you’d like to discuss your FinTech or Blockchain project with us, you're welcome to book a call with one of our principals on our website.I’ll be back next week with another episode to explore The FinTech Founder Journey. Connect with Ran or Crypto Banter. Connect with Mike or Nona.Follow Nona Digital: LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | YouTube
