fourth um but weather looks good here probably gonna hit the pool oh man yeah how about you man
any good plans for you no no well uh i'm in vegas so i we're actually hosting a hackathon in stanford
university uh tomorrow so i don't want to stay in stanford the whole weekend so i'm going
um i fly out the night uh and then fly back tomorrow night back here uh and then after that
that's that's just pretty much it uh no big plans uh this weekend or the fourth unfortunately but
can't complain you know yeah man probably makes sense absolutely so let's get it started it's
friday and uh it's basically a longer weekend quote-unquote uh we count tuesday so uh no tell
us a little bit more about you and kind of like your your background uh for you know the people
listening and the people that'll listen uh after yeah for sure so my name is daniel co-founder and
ceo of coinflow we are a web3 payments company and we've been around for better half of the year now
and really our our mission is to make it easier for non-crypto native consumers to be able to
interact with merchants um in web3 that sell digital goods or services through smart contracts
these can be gaming companies nft platforms centralized storage real world assets streaming
protocols or payroll and other uh things like zebek um so that's one of our products to check out
and the other side is getting the value out of you know of crypto meaning that unfortunately we can't
pay all our bills and everything with digital assets yet but um connecting them to the financial
system that's traditional and providing that intermediate layer is is what we're all about
in the off-ramp side and that's what the services are providing for zebek super interested in having
that um service so yeah that's a little bit about us and myself absolutely no i think you i was going
to ask you kind of like the the idea or like inspiration when you know before you guys started the
project but i think you hit it right in the head just basically you know kind of making crypto
more useful in at least today's society day-to-day wise correct
yeah exactly exactly you hit the nail right on the head like we saw that there's a huge missing piece
in the market that's needed for being able to just onboard consumers and let them access digital
collectibles digital digital anything through web3 technology yep and i think that's uh one of the
things that kind of holding back crypto uh at least in you know just mainstream um not media but just
consumption in general so uh i think you guys are doing a phenomenal job i mean clearly right we're
we're working with you guys and um so i mean you guys have a lot of stuff you know if anybody wants to
go to their website they got a lot of uh cool just information of of just coinflow labs and a lot of
different projects or coinflow.cash so tell us a little bit more of like you know what's coinflow or i mean
some of the features you guys have other than you know just on ramping and off ramping
yeah i mean we that's definitely the service that we offer but to really make that useful you need to
know i mean the the on-ramp side we don't really call it on-ramp because we we call it checkout or
pay-in because you your users aren't on-ramping crypto they're utilizing your services or using your
product to get a good or service out of it so with that comes a lot of analytics that are needed
and required to be able to just figure out what your users are purchasing how much they're purchasing
um different frequencies by week day etc and what we like to call that is just advanced consumer
analytics so businesses can just make better decisions um so that's on the checkout and the
pay-in side and the off-ramp i mean something that's really cool we have come to the markets
real-time payments with fed now coming um that's coming to the u.s and we're looking to be
quick adopters of that early adopters of it and provide it to our customers and have them provide
theirs and that's really awesome because it lets the instant ability of settlement in the digital
asset world connect with the financial systems and make those both instant so pretty excited about
that though uh at least you know um on as a user of zevic right because obviously we get paid through
the protocol um getting paid per second is or real time however you want to call it is
dope as hell like it's way better than just waiting you know two weeks to get a paycheck here in the
states i mean in international i know it's like one time a month so it's way better than that it just
kind of gives you the peace of mind that the money's there but one of the issues that comes with getting
paid per second before you know coin flow was uh integrated into zevic was the fact that you got up you
know withdraw it from zevic it goes to your wallet from the wallet you got to send it to coinbase
whatever the case is so it's phenomenal for a different uh you know a bunch of reasons uh to
get just be able to off ramp it straight to the bank from the protocol itself so um we're super excited
obviously to be working with you guys so um in terms of i mean i guess what are some of the i know
you said like uh that off ramping on ramping was kind of like the main feature but like i was reading
on the on the website like you guys are able to purchase goods and services via credit card
lightning fast user payouts i mean anything that you want to highlight in specific uh that coin flow
does for partners that might be looking into getting into working with you guys
yeah i mean that's really our bread and butter but one thing i'd add is like we have fraud analytics
that are pretty deep currently and very advanced using some powerful i don't want to i mean ai is
the underlying technology of it which has become a buzzword now but yeah like utilizing that technology
which is great um no other than that i mean that's that's really that's really you did the pitch for me
and there's not much more than that it's very simple and straightforward i don't want to i don't
want to oversell it oh no that's awesome it sells itself in my opinion um so uh i mean let's i guess
talk a little bit more because i was going to ask you about the importance of an application like
coin flow but i think we've kind of hound that in already um you know just for more you know more
more adoption and mainstream adoption but like tell us a little bit more of a but like coin flow and
zevix you know partnership me personally i didn't work hand in hand with you guys so um i would like to
know you know at least personally too like how did that go how was the experience and kind of what
you think of the whole um of the whole collaboration and partnership
yeah i've been i've been excited because i've been following zevix for a really long time
i think really innovative stuff you guys are doing known sam one of the founders of zevix
it's great we finally got a chance to work together and like you said
um streaming payments instantly per second is great but it's not so great if you have to pay
rent or credit card bill in the real world because you still have to figure out how to get that those
funds to your bank account to pay those things so i mean that that's what we're here for and that's
what i'm really excited about it really allows the user to fully utilize both our technologies to
the fullest extent and make something that's really unique in the in the market that's not out there in
the traditional world like there's nothing you can stream your paycheck per second and then get
it to your bank account whenever you want whether that's on whatever cadence if that's you know every
day every hour every two weeks every week um but the option is always there and still self-custody so
it is pretty phenomenal absolutely are you guys only in solana or is there other projects that can hit
you guys up from evm chains yeah other projects can definitely hit us up um we're on polygon near solana
and ethereum looking to expand more chains as well um i know you guys are in a few chains that are
outside of solana as well but yeah definitely expanding chains absolutely uh and then um i guess
moving forward you know in this year like what are some of the roadmap plans you guys have uh you know
for for the rest of the year
yeah really it's just adding additional payment services to our product for both the check-in
method whether that's like apple pay google pay we want to do off-ramp to debit cards um so that's a
big one that we're looking at adding fed now as i mentioned so instant payments and then just
expanding our coverage into different regions is something we're looking at doing as well
absolutely no uh so you guys are only in the u.s right now
on the off-ramp side yeah that's correct only in the u.s perfect perfect no there you guys go i mean
anybody that uh i mean if anybody wants to work with you guys how how would that be who can they
contact how can kind of get in touch with you guys how did that whole process go
yeah i mean i think the easiest way is through our website there's methodically been a couple contact
forms put on there so people can hit us up to that we we definitely check that and are happy to take
any inbound absolutely so no i urge anybody kind of like in the financial um or in the defy space
that wants to add some sort of on off-ramp solution uh into their protocol um you know to
definitely go and move forward with um with coin flow i mean and zevic right now we're already live
so if anybody wants to use um you know zevic to obviously send payment streams uh or use it as
their payroll solution for their web3 protocol or as an alternative to like their adp or whatever
um as a perk for their company definitely uh look into zevic because now people are able to convert
that usdc and how does that process work like is it so if i'm streaming usdc does uh can i just stream
or just off-ramp that usdc straight into my bank account or how does that whole process work
that's that's exactly right man like if you stream it to your
there's it back to your wallet and then or get it streamed to your wallet and then from there if you
want to get directly to your bank account you can definitely do that through the portal perfect
no there you go so i mean it's it's super easy to use definitely go and and check them out and i
mean again if you guys are uh a project out there that wants to add this uh to your suite and then
just basically be able to move funds from the protocol to the straight to the bank account um hit
up coin flow um because they're they're just a phenomenal uh team to work with same with dan uh and
the whole team so i mean man that's pretty much it uh for for my end you know uh i'm not sure if
anybody's listening that has a question i mean feel free to like raise your hand or whatever
um but if anybody listening to after wants to definitely hit up you know dan and the team
definitely go hit up coin flow uh shoot him a dm uh or again go to their website coinflow.cash
and then there's uh an actual contact the team now um page uh or templates that you guys can fill out
uh but dan that's pretty much everything on my side anything anything else that you want to touch on
or that i that i miss no i mean i think we kept it we went pretty quick we kept it short and i think
that does justice to how simple and easy to understand our products are which isn't a bad
thing because i i've been on these things where it takes them 15 minutes to explain what they're doing
which is only negative right so like if we're able to explain it quickly in a couple words
that's that's that's no and like i'm i'm right now on zebec.io and like uh like basically if you
were to like send me from your zebec account to mine um you know some usdc i would get obviously the
stream but then there's a button that says withdraw to your bank account you click continue and then
you basically have a portal right there that pops up and super easy just add your name um address
birthday contact ssn connect the bank account and you're good to go you're ready to off ramp it's
super easy to use so i mean dude you save my life because i know a few ways i'll hit you up later uh
but this can definitely be useful for uh at least on my uh yearly uh you know 1099s so uh yeah man
you're definitely awesome for this and thank you as a user of seven you know
perfect yeah that's that's great to hear hopefully you'll be utilizing the product and
the partnership absolutely man so yeah again everybody has questions anything they want or
projects they want to hit up uh dan and the team definitely hit them up uh coinflow uh labs is their
