In this episode of Unblocking the Chain, hosts Michael Prendiville and Drew Bradford are joined by Toby Abbey and Ed Carroll from MHC Digital Group to discuss their groundbreaking partnership with Catena Digital — the creation of Macropod and Australia’s first AUD-backed stablecoin, AUDM. The conversation explores how digital assets are transforming traditional finance, the role of regulation in driving institutional adoption, and why stablecoins are poised to reshape global payments and FX markets. The guests share insights into the origins of MHC Digital, the timing behind the AUDM launch, and how blockchain technology can dramatically lower costs, improve transparency, and revolutionize how money moves around the world.
