Bitcoin payments, Lightning Network, and fast crypto payments are here. Learn about cryptocurrency payment processing and blockchain technology with Tedd Huff, CEO of Voalyre, and Voltage CEO Graham Krizek. This conversation cuts through the noise around Bitcoin's practical applications, digital currency, and modern financial solutions.

The discussion reveals striking realities about payment processing that most people never consider. While traditional bank transfers take days and wire transfers take hours, Lightning Network transactions settle in under a second with complete finality. Graham shares how regulatory barriers are falling, with banks now able to hold cryptocurrency without special approval, and why businesses should default to Lightning for all Bitcoin transactions.
