Mike Kennedy co-founded Zelle, the largest peer-to-peer payment mobile app backed by the biggest banks in the U.S. and now is the CEO of Velo which uses the Stellar blockchain to power-what they plan to be- the largest payment system in the World.

He visits to discuss the recent announcement of Velo Labs, TEMPO Payments, and Bitazza Thailand opening up a remittance corridor between 27 countries in the EU region and Thailand.

The cross-border transactions leverage the Velo Protocol, Velo tokens, and Velo digital credits, which are one of the most compliance-friendly and price-stable virtual assets. Plus each transaction settles in seconds, thanks to the speed of the Stellar blockchain. Through this partnership with Velo Labs, TEMPO Payments and Bitazza, both licensed financial institutions, are leading the way in revolutionizing international payments by connecting the ASEAN and EU markets, representing about $17 billion and nearly 600 million customers.
