Matthew Castricone moderates a panel with enterprise builders on the Stellar network including Amit from Finclusive, Ruben and Lisa from AirTM, and Santiago from Bitso. The discussion covers regulatory outlook for 2022, with optimism tempered by regional challenges; liquidity gaps in crypto payments and the role of DeFi and on/off ramps; whether crypto is in a bubble and what happens during economic downturns; and inflation's impact on digital assets. Panelists emphasize real use cases like remittances and financial inclusion over speculation, highlighting the importance of stable coins, local fiat rails, and building trust through seamless cash-in/cash-out experiences.
