Dialectic Ep. 48: Henri Stern Modern technologists--especially in crypto--are often deeply principled or impressively pragmatic. Henri Stern Ꙫ is both. I talked to Henri about digital privacy, the moral weight of building technology, the painful reality of realizing the market doesn't want what you're selling, and crypto's 'boring' era. Henri is co-founder and CEO of Privy, which Stripe acquired last year. Privy focuses on enabling developers to let their users hold crypto, and Henri works across a number of Stripe's efforts to bring more of the financial world onchain (in large part thanks to stablecoins). Timestamps: 0:00 - Opening Highlights 1:40 - Intro to Henri 4:51 - Start: Technical Decisions are Moral Decisions 15:41 - Ambition, Startups, and Crypto 23:39 - Why Digital Privacy Matters: Self-Determination, Security, and Identity 41:52 - Embedded Wallets, the Pivot, and Privy's Core Bet 55:18 - Reinventing Around Stablecoins Without Abandoning Crypto-Natives 1:06:42 - Joining Stripe, Privy Today, and What Stripe Is Becoming 1:22:54 - Crypto's Future, Power Laws, Optimism and Pessimism 1:38:14 - Closing: Asta, Stripe's Leaders, Being French, and Never Compromising Available on all platforms below.

1/ Today, at Stripe Sessions, we introduced digital asset accounts. A new primitive from Privy that lets teams hold, manage, and grow digital assets globally from day one. It’s a shift from wallets to systems for managing money.

Erik Voorhees on the crypto UX realisation that took 15 years "Crypto has always had this UX challenge with humans. Every time you go to a crypto conference, whether it was back in 2011 or tomorrow, people talk about how do you make this stuff more usable to people" "It seems like perhaps it's just much more usable for robots and the machines and the AI, and that crypto is actually built for the machines and we didn't know it. The machines are now going to start running on the stuff and utilizing it" "They have no trouble with public key pairs, that's easy for them" "I don't see a future where the robots are using bank accounts at Wells Fargo. I do see a future where they're using crypto assets on decentralized rails"

THE BANKS THAT FOUGHT THE CRYPTO BILL ARE QUIETLY BUILDING THEIR DEFENSE AGAINST IT. 🇺🇸 Today: JPMorgan, Citi, Bank of America and Wells Fargo announced a shared tokenized deposit network, built to keep deposits from fleeing to stablecoins. Days earlier: Stripe, Visa and Mastercard backed a new stablecoin platform. The CLARITY Act would let stablecoins pay yield. That's a direct threat to bank deposits. You don't build a defense this big for something you think won't happen. The banks are pricing in the bill passing.

THIS IS HAPPENING FASTER THAN PEOPLE THINK Hunter Horsley says a major U.S. bank went from zero to full speed on crypto in just months. One exec with 25 years at the bank told him the leadership team has gone “from 0 to 500 mph” on crypto education and rollout. Banks don’t move like that. Ever. Horsley says he’s hearing the same thing across the industry: 📊 Two-thirds of financial institutions could be in crypto within 6 months 📊 Over half of fintechs and neobanks are moving in now Regardless of ideology, crypto is being positioned as a mainstream asset class and store of value, with billions of users eventually touching it. 📹️ Jacquelyn Melinek
