93: Simplifying Web3 Onboarding | Arman & Parker, Founders of Peaze

Billion Moonshots

Arman and Parker are the founders of Peaze - allowing you to use any dapp with just an email and credit card. A lot of cool things are being built in web3 - but most of the new users who come in are unable to use them.

Users have to download a wallet, manage the private keys, on-ramp the correct crypto, swap it into the correct asset, bridge, transfer over from Coinbase, etc. Web3 user onboarding is a real problem. What if you could just sign in with your email.
