2386: How Venly is Bridging Web2 and Web3

The Tech Talks Daily Podcast

In today's episode of Tech Talks Daily, I dive into the fascinating world of blockchain and Web3 with Stefan Colins, Head of Marketing and Community at Venly, a Belgium-based trailblazer in the crypto space.

Amidst a notable decrease in global venture funding, Venly stands out, having successfully secured €21 million in a Series A funding round in April 2022.

They've since been at the forefront of innovation, providing a seamless transition solution for Web2 companies to embrace the promise of Web3, along with a robust suite of tools designed to boost user growth in the industry.

My guest, Stefan, takes us behind the scenes at Venly, discussing their broad range of offerings, including their Shopify wallet integration, Venly wallet, Venly NFT marketplace, market API, and their comprehensive suite of NFT tools. Serving over 3 million end users, Venly has been driving revolutionary advancements across both the Web2 and Web3 domains, with renowned partnerships with Shopify, Stripe, Sandbox, OpenSea, 1inch, and Aavegotchi.

We delve into Venly's key milestones, including their partnership with Stripe, which enabled new fiat-to-crypto onramps, and the integration allowing Shopify users to sell NFTs via their storefront. Stefan also enlightens us on the challenges and strategies involved in catalyzing mainstream adoption of Web3 by onboarding traditional companies to this new domain.

Our engrossing dialogue with Stefan promises insights on Venly's vision for the future of blockchain, their commitment to regulatory compliance, and their expansion plans. Join us in this episode for a deep dive into the transformative power of blockchain and the endless possibilities of Web3 with Stefan Colins from Venly.
