3063: From AI to Data Marketplaces: Peko Wan on What’s Next for Pundi X

Have you ever wondered how developing countries are adapting to the rise of cryptocurrency? Or how AI is transforming the way we experience crypto payments in physical retail outlets? In today's episode of the Tech Talks Daily Podcast, I enjoy a conversation with Peko Wan, co-CEO of Pundi X, to explore these very questions.

Pundi X, celebrating its 7th anniversary, has been at the forefront of the crypto revolution, playing a pivotal role in making cryptocurrency accessible to merchants and consumers alike. From deploying their innovative POS solutions to solidifying partnerships with governments and retailers, Pundi X has consistently pushed the boundaries of what's possible in fintech.

Peko brings over 15 years of IT industry experience and a wealth of knowledge from her time at companies like Opera Software and Ogilvy & Mather. Together, we discuss how crypto payment adoption has evolved since 2017, particularly in developing countries, where currency devaluation and inflation are driving a bottom-up approach to adoption.

Peko also dives into how Pundi X is leveraging AI to enhance crypto payments, from managing liquidity pools to AI-driven mechanisms for anti-money laundering (AML) compliance.

As we explore the challenges and opportunities in the world of crypto payments, Peko shares insights into Pundi X’s upcoming initiatives, including a data marketplace platform launching this November. This initiative will empower users to contribute, annotate, and sell data for AI model training, creating new opportunities for innovation in the space.
