In this episode of Deep Dive Podcast, host Rachel Wolfson sits down with Anthony Soohoo, CEO of MoneyGram, to discuss how the company is embracing stablecoins as part of its broader digital transformation and overall “refounding”. Soohoo breaks down MoneyGram’s recent partnership with Kraken, the growing role of crypto-to-cash infrastructure, and why stablecoins could play a major role in the future of global payments and financial access. MoneyGram operates in over 200 countries and territories, with a network spanning over 500,000 locations and access to billions of digital endpoints.
This week's guest(s):
Anthony Soohoo is CEO and Chairman of MoneyGram, where he is leading the transformation of one of the world’s largest global payments networks into a modern, stablecoin-powered financial platform. Anthony has 25+ years of experience building and scaling technology platforms across AI, commerce and financial infrastructure.
