What if moving money across borders was as seamless as sending an email?

In this episode of the F-Squared Podcast, host Samora sits down with Eytan Messika (Nilos) and Nicolai Eddy (Nala & Rafiki) to unpack stablecoins in the African context—from FX innovation and liquidity provisioning to the regulatory frictions shaping adoption.

🔍 What’s inside:

Why correspondent banking is outdated for frontier markets

How stablecoins create real-time liquidity (and where the frictions still lie)

Insights on remittance, treasury, imports, and P2P arbitrage

What it takes to build trust with regulators—and why that’s the long-term moat

📊 A grounded, builder-first take on stablecoins. Real use cases. Real frictions. Real potential.

🎙 Guests:

Eytan Messika, Co-founder @ Nilos

Nicolai Eddy, COO & Co-founder @ Nala & Rafiki
