About this episode

Przemek Kowalczyk discusses how Ramp Network addresses user drop-off in crypto apps during the payment process.

Crypto adoption has stalled at the on-ramp. Most wallets and dApps lose users at the exact moment they try to buy their first token — because the payment flow is slow, the KYC is clunky, and the failure rates are quietly killing conversion. Przemek Kowalczyk, Co-Founder and CEO of Ramp Network, breaks down how Ramp built a global fiat-to-crypto infrastructure layer operating across 150+ countries, supporting cards, bank transfers, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Pix, and more — all embedded directly into the apps users already have. From the root causes of failed onboarding (it's not what most teams think) to the just-announced Ramp multichain wallet and what stablecoins change about the entire ramp model, Przemek explains what it takes to run a real payments business inside the crypto economy — compliance, fraud, chargebacks, and all. You'll learn: - Why most crypto apps lose users at the payment step — and where the drop-off actually happens - How Ramp's end-to-end flow works when a user buys crypto with a card, bank transfer, or Apple Pay - Which payment rails drive the most volume across 150+ countries right now and why the mix matters - What KYC looks like when you're balancing low…
