Hey, everyone. I'm excited to share with you my conversation with Toby Gilbert, founder and CEO at Coinweb. The team is building an innovative cross-chain computation platform that solves some of Blockchain's biggest challenges. But most importantly, they're building usable blockchain technology that's accessible for everyone. Their cross-chain layer2 allows users to mint cross-chain tokens without any coding knowledge needed.
Their white-label wallet solution allows brands to easily create their own customizable wallet and create their own token economies. Their licensed on-ramp solution makes it easier to convert fiat currencies into crypto. CoinWeb is pioneering research and development in the space, and they've invented and deployed this cross-chain technology from scratch. They continue to push the boundaries of what's possible in web3 and will undoubtedly be an entry point for millions of new users in the space.
Coin Web already has a working proof of concept, and they're already responsible for about 40 basis points of daily transaction volume on BNB. They're looking to launch their mainnet in Q1 of 2024. So with that in mind, here is my conversation with Toby Gilbert.
