Bitcoin’s reliability and transaction-level security has inspired today’s explosion of blockchain pilots, companies, and consortia. But the bitcoin rails already have solid commercial applications. Circle Internet Finance has focused on person to person payments. Align Commerce has focused on international B2B payments for smaller businesses. With growth, both have blended bitcoin rails with more traditional methods to accomplish fast, cost effective transfers.

Join Marwan Forzley, CEO of Align Commerce, and Glenbrook‘s George Peabody for a conversation about how Align moves money and the state of bitcoin and blockchain development. There may be no such thing as an international wire but this approach gets pretty close.
