314: Concordium’s Vision for Privacy, Payments & Real-World Adoption

MP3•Episode home

What if your digital identity could unlock payments, access, and compliance—all without giving up your privacy?

In this episode, I talk to Boris, CEO of Concordium and former co-founder of Copper, one of the biggest institutional custodians in crypto. We dive deep into why Concordium is building a new Layer 1 focused on privacy, programmable payments, stablecoins, and compliance-first infrastructure.

Boris shares insights on the challenges of building for institutional adoption, the critical need for better tooling in Web3, and why he believes Concordium could be the missing link for real-world crypto use cases.

Whether you’re a founder, developer, or curious about blockchain’s next evolution—this one’s for you.
