Episode Synopsis: Marcus Swanepoel, CEO and co-founder of BitX joined us for an interesting conversation on the bitcoin and blockchain industry in Asia. Beginning from his background as a banker to his current stint as a startup founder, he discussed the origins of BitX and how it is leading the charge on bitcoin and blockchain in the Southeast Asia markets. We also discussed the technology and regulatory challenges for bitcoin & blockchain to go mainstream in Asia and the current landscape in how the Asia banks will enter the blockchain and bitcoin landscape either through consortiums with the US and European banks or build their own.
