Why Every Major App Will Issue Their Own Stablecoin with Luca Prosperi from M0

The infrastructure of money is being completely rewritten, and most people don't see it happening.

In this episode, we sit down with Luca Prosperi, founder of M0, to discuss why every major app will issue their own stablecoin, how MetaMask built their own dollar without banking rails, and why we're heading from $300B to trillions in stablecoin market cap.


We discuss:

- Why every bank's dollar is actually different

- The stablecoin fragmentation problem

- How MetaMask built their own dollar without banking rails

- Why apps need to control their own stablecoins

- The future of non-custodial financial services

- From $300B to trillions: Where stablecoins are heading
