What use is fintech if you can't get online?
A couple of weeks ago I went into an overpriced London salad shop for lunch. Before I could part with my hard-earned money for some wilted spinach and avocado, the connection on the iPad I was ordering on went down.
Stop mistaking clever features for intelligent services

What's brewing in web3 during the crypto winter?

ESG investing is broken. This is how fintechs can help fix it.
