Joining me this week is May Mahboob, Co-Founder of MBD Financials, a photo-realistic metaverse banking solution aimed at helping people all over the world engage in financial activities on blockchain based technologies. May describes what banking in the metaverse looks like, how it can help people in developing countries, and what it means for international development. As an international policy nerd, this episode really spoke to what's happening in developing countries and how blockchain may help solve problems. Also, if you've been wondering what a DAO is, this is the podcast for you!
