503. Insights: Stablecoins and crypto: the next generation of B2B payments

On the surface, the world of payments is constantly evolving. With the likes of PayPal, Venmo and a multitude of other consumer fintechs, peer-to-peer payments and consumer-to-business payments have seen rapid and innovative advancements in recent year. The same, however, cannot be said for business-to-business. Although global B2B payments dwarf any other kind, they still seem to dwell in a relative Stone Age of innovation and efficiency. So how can B2B payments be better? Are stablecoins the answer or does the solution lie in the existing infrastructure? In this episode, Simon Taylor and guests try to answer just that.
