Reimagining Money Movement: Open Financial Rails for India
**A fireside chat with Polygon co-founder Sandeep Nailwal exploring:**
- Next frontier for payments in India - making cross-border money movement just as fast and accessible.
- Stablecoins as invisible settlement infrastructure; moving value globally, 24/7, at significantly lower cost.
- Benefits to Indian households, exporters and MSMEs through cheaper remittances, faster settlement and improved access to global markets.
- Opportunity to connect stablecoin infrastructure with India’s existing banking and payment rails, while users continue to send and receive familiar fiat currencies.
- Licensed platforms, verified identities and transparent blockchain records give regulators greater visibility and control than today’s offshore and informal channels.
- With a supervised, innovation-friendly framework, India can define the model for regulated digital money across emerging markets
- Sandeep’s journey building Polygon and supporting social-impact initiatives with Blockchain for Impact
