Julie Landrum of OpenNode joins me to talk about what they’re building to help people onboard to Bitcoin & the lightning network as a payment standard. OpenNode first got its name as a merchant payment processor but we chat about how the company has grown and evolved over the years. We chat:

• Bitcoin infrastructure services for merchants, bitcoin companies
• Dealing with the cyclical nature of Bitcoin
• Spend, HODL, earn?
• Chargeback risk
• Dealing with regulatory requirements
• El Salvador adoption
• International adoption
