In this episode of The Unstoppable Podcast, we’re talking to Vik Sharma, founder of Cake Wallet, the first open-source Monero wallet since 2018, with which Unstoppable Domains is now integrated.

Vik tells us all about how Cake Wallet was born and where the idea came from, and gives a  brief overview of Monero and what differentiates it from other coins.

We talk about UX—how important UX is for crypto and how different projects can improve their UX and become more accessible to a mainstream audience. Vik also shares what he thinks are some of the biggest UX features that need to be developed to bring people into the blockchain space.

We discuss some of the biggest challenges with educating newcomers and bringing people into the decentralized space, along with some of the other big barriers to mainstream adoption aside from UX.

Finally, Vik shares his thoughts about the future. Is decentralization all or nothing? Or can we take baby steps to transition from a centralized web? Also, what’s coming in the near future for Cake Wallet, and the blockchain space as a whole?
