The Last Mile DeFi podcast focuses on the opportunity for DeFi to empower underbanked communities in the global south, strategies for expanding the practical use of cryptocurrency in emerging economies, and how Web3 companies and protocols can drive the onboarding of the next billion people into the space.
In the episode, Jackie and Marcus begin by discussing her professional journey from Google, Twitter, and Spotify, to being drawn to the Celo ecosystem and the founding of Valora. They cover the origins and growth of the Valora - from field testing in refugee camps and rural Latin America, to becoming the leading wallet on Celo today, and the challenges of building crypto solutions for emerging markets.
