Collin Canright on The Hale Report Podcast Ep. 71
I had the immense pleasure of being interviewed by Lyric Hughes Hale on my personal and technological journey through media and money. It was great fun covering topics from our newspaper families, the story of FinTech, through today’s adoption of stablecoins and their relationship to the history of U.S. currency and global dollar dominance.
