[Catherine]

Hello and welcome, everyone! I’m Catherine, your host for today’s exciting AMA session on UQUID’s X platforms. Today, we dive into a groundbreaking discussion on the topic titled: ‘Fast, Faster, Solana: Pioneering the Future of Crypto Payments.’

We are thrilled to have a stellar lineup of speakers from UQUID and Helio, who are at the forefront of integrating cutting-edge blockchain technologies into the realm of crypto payments.

So, today’s discussion will not only shed light on the dynamic capabilities of Solana’s blockchain but also delve into how these innovations are shaping the future of payments in the digital age. So, stay tuned as we uncover the potential and the challenges of the crypto payment landscape straight from the experts driving this transformation.

Let’s kick off with our first agenda item today. We’re eager to dive into the significant achievements and future plans of our esteemed guests from Helio and UQUID. First up, please welcome our speaker from Helio. Could you please briefly introduce your project, highlight the key milestones achieved in 2023, and outline your strategic plan for 2024?

[Helio’s Speaker]

Hello from Helio, I’m part of the BD team at Helio and we will look at a quick summary of Helio and kind of our year, so Helio is the biggest and famous platform on Solana and one of the fastest in crypto across many different blockchains. We look at the blockchain system overall. So we serve payments for Bitcoin, Ethereum Polygon, and of course SoLana.

Quick summary of our network, we have around 300,000 unique wallets that use helium and about 5,000 active merchants of different varieties, some are individuals, some are projects like NFT projects, some are platforms and there’s a whole range. Most recently we have started seeing quite a lot of use of Helio for ordinals which is a protocol on BTC’s kind of think of it as like a layer 2.

We also see some pick up around 404 which is really starting to get into some very specific NFT language as essentially think of it as convertible NFTs. It’s amazing. I think for us the years have been very good, we continue to build more and more tooling, you know we like to experiment, we try and build things that we think would make interesting use cases.

We have the ability for self serve tools so an individual can go on and create a payment link to get paid in the currency of choice, they could sell a physical item or they could sell an NFT pre sale for more professional setups they could use API and Webhooks for their platform so they can systematically integrate Helio into their payment flow.

And we have lots of different partners including we run the Solana pay Shopify plug-in which they asked us to run for them. I think it’s some of the key events for the year, you know we did the this crypto payments for the Solana Mobile Chapter 2, so Salana Mobile the phone their second edition we did the sales, the payments for their sales, I think the total that we process for them now is around $37 million. So huge success from that side, also you know Anatoly — the founder of Solana had mentioned as we saved them around $1 million in fees and comparable to other payments providers.

So it’s a really big milestone for us, in fact Solana and Circle, the stable coin issuer, are looking at doing case studies on Helio. I think the Solana one has just gone out um and look we were integrated payments partner for Magic Eden, we serve customers like Deck Screener, BirdEye, Hivemapper, so great platforms and so partners are important part of our go to market, and you know we work with lots of great e commerce platforms and we’re looking for new partners so I’m glad to be part of this conversation and love to talk more about uh our topic for today.

[Catherine]

Thank you for sharing those insightful updates and outlining the exciting path Helio is charting forward. It’s thrilling to see how your innovative use of Solana is advancing the crypto payment landscape.

Next, we’d like to hear from our UQUID representative. Please enlighten us about UQUID’s journey, your significant achievements over the past year, and what we can expect in the coming year.

[UQUID — Lola]

Thank you, Catherine, and hello, everyone; I’m Lola from the Business Development team at UQUID, thrilled to be here.

I’m currently using an Alpha Mobile Top-up account. This is a cutting-edge B2B solution we’ve developed to offer top-up and data services specially designed for businesses integrated with Web 3.0 technology.

And about UQUID, we’re enhancing the shopping experience by merging blockchain innovations with e-commerce, providing a Shop-to-Earn platform with a vast array of over 160 million products, including everyday items, digital goods, and NFTs.

This year, we’ve expanded into NFT marketplaces and introduced flexible payment solutions like Buy Now, Pay Later, catering to both crypto and fiat users. For 2024, our focus is on growth — expanding our product offerings, entering new markets, and enhancing customer satisfaction.

One exciting development is our $1 Shop, offering high-quality items at low costs, making shopping affordable in the crypto world.

We’re also strengthening our platform through partnerships with over 65 major industry players, enhancing payment versatility, security, and user comfort with blockchain technology. So, in short, we’re aiming to make UQUID a revolutionary shopping destination.

[Catherine]

Thank you for that comprehensive overview. The progress UQUID is making in bridging DeFi, and e-commerce is truly inspiring for the entire sector. It’s fascinating to see the real-world applications of your initiatives in enhancing user experience in the crypto space.

Now, let’s shift our focus to another vital aspect of today’s discussion — crypto payments.

Turning to our representative from Helio, could you describe the current landscape of crypto payments and the potential you see for this technology in the near future? Additionally, how does Helio position itself within this rapidly evolving market?

[Helio]

It’s an interesting question. I think personally the payments as an application it’s the part of blockchain that has the best product market fit right it’s not forcing. So I think that’s why the payment use case for cryptos has really taken off and I think it is an exciting space to be working in and it’s kind of an empowering space for anybody who’s in this part of the crypto system or in blockchain. Anyone who’s doing a good job in this space needs to empower all of those things, so it needs to stay cheap, it needs to be fast and free.

Just because it’s blockchain doesn’t mean there should be any less organization around the payments right, like think about any business payments has so many controls and so many checks and balances and in crypto there should be no less. Especially if you’re a business right so how Helio is played in that is you know well

we’ve tried to put organized processes and tooling around that core payment or the core transaction, whether you want to collect address details and you know we have address API that validates the address is correct

Or you’re looking for to capture any other information from a customer or you’re looking for you know we’re looking for a non custodial solution, it should like the way Helio works is the payment is routed from buyer to seller, we don’t take the money in between and hold it or anything like that so there’s no middle man, so again that’s how we work. We have a simple embed checkout which looks like you know pay with stripe if you look at how great stripe is made, the usability of that product.

We try to expire to the same level and again you know making things easy, making things available, as on a self serve basis so people don’t have to come and you know we’re not locking anything up, you wanna come use it you can set up configure your pay link and embed the checkout on your website quite easily and away you go so just making things really simple and I think just overall.

If you’re a payment provider, the other thing that we think is important is partnerships are key right? There are a lot of people who are building great products and could also be building good payment flows but we spend the time to make that easy so that they can just plug us in , they can focus on what they do best and we make sure we add the new chains . We make sure we add any new important wallets etcetera. So yeah that’s kind of how we focus on the space and how we try to serve the space as best as possible.

[Catherine]

Thank you for providing such a clear vision of how Helio is adapting and thriving within the crypto payments arena. Your insights into the integration of blockchain technologies into everyday transactions are particularly compelling.

Now, let’s delve into some of the more challenging aspects of our topic today. Both UQUID and Helio are pioneers in the realm of crypto payments, which, as we know, comes with its own set of hurdles.

To both of our esteemed guests, could you share your thoughts on the primary challenges facing the wider adoption of crypto payments today? Additionally, how do issues like market volatility and public perception impact user acceptance of crypto payments? Let’s start with UQUID’s representative.

[UQUID — Lola]

Thank you, Catherine. As a leader in web3 e-commerce, UQUID faces unique challenges and opportunities in integrating crypto payments into everyday shopping experiences.

The primary challenge lies in the volatility of cryptocurrencies, which can sway significantly, affecting both pricing stability and consumer confidence.

Additionally, the public perception of cryptocurrencies — often seen as complex and insecure — can hinder broader acceptance and usage.

To address these challenges, UQUID leverages the diversity of crypto payment options, including stablecoins and mainstream cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, to provide a more stable and familiar transaction environment for our customers.

This approach not only mitigates the impact of volatility but also enhances user trust by offering choices that fit various risk appetites and preferences.

Moreover, we are deeply committed to user education and simplifying the crypto transaction process. Our platform is designed to be as intuitive as possible, reducing barriers for entry into the crypto economy. We offer educational resources that explain the benefits and procedures of crypto payments in clear, accessible language.

In addition, our robust security measures and partnerships with reliable crypto payment gateways ensure that transactions are secure and compliant with current financial regulations, which reassures users about the safety of their transactions.

At UQUID, we believe that the future of e-commerce lies in the seamless integration of these diverse payment systems, allowing users from all over the world to shop with ease and confidence, regardless of their preferred payment method. We’re excited about the potential of expanding our reach and continuing to innovate in ways that push the boundaries of what’s possible in web3 e-commerce.

[Catherine]

Thank you for those detailed insights. It’s clear that addressing these challenges requires innovative solutions and robust education of the market.

Now, turning to Helio, could you also share your perspective on these challenges and particularly how Helio is addressing the impact of volatility and public perception to enhance user acceptance?

[Helio]

I think I agree with a lot of what Lola was saying. I also think it’s a little bit of a matter of time right like as cryptos use cases and adoption grows the level of comfort that people have with using crypto you know even just transacting like a short term transaction and then on the other side of it people getting comfortable with staying in crypto right .

So if I’m a merchant and I’m selling something in crypto am I okay in in keeping crypto like I get paid and I don’t mind holding it so I think these things will change over time and I hope they will increase and improve over time so I think along with that the more people hold crypto the more likely they’re gonna choose to transact with it.

So I think those things go hand in hand and I think on and off ramp fees probably where Helio plays a lot is, we serve customers the whole crypto and people who want to resell in crypto and receive crypto. We offer things at both ends if you need to on and off ramp we serve it but we do recognise that. You start to approach web 2 fee structures and when you start to interact with the fiat part in the on and off ramp so hopefully there’s gonna be solutions where the fees of on and off ramp which is a hurdle right where and the simplicity of the on and off ramps will become easier and that would help the adoption of of people saying why should I use crypto payments.

I think in terms of the public perception I think we kinda live in echo chambers, I went to an event the other day and I kind of use crypto and blockchain interchangeably so to me they’re not so different because it’s the underlying technology is the same but to the outside world they can be quite different. Many people are pro blockchain but not pro crypto so I recognise there’s a public perception problem and there’s definitely gonna be the impact of bad actors you know whether it’s pump and dumps or scams.

But you know with any new technology sector this is a frontier market right like it’s like a little bit like the Wild Wild West which has its good side and bad side because it means there’s opportunity right so in the early days of the settlement of what is now California and the Wild Wild West there was a lot of crime and there was a lot of bad actors and but in the end it was a high opportunity situation where which attracted people of all kinds and you know I think we have to work through that I think the bear market has been good because it’s meant that we could see the people who are active in the bear market who were there for the right reasons.

So now when we see a new project we know it is somebody that I know who was there before and I can kind of see um is it a high signal person , is it somebody that was building for the right reasons. We’ve got some clues and I think that’s why good projects that are here for them to connect with each other work with each other because it means every time the good projects are able to point out “hey that’s a good project”. You provide light for consumers, you know which of the projects that they should be looking at.

So I think that you know we’re making progress. There is an upside or some benefit of the bear market and the tough times and then in terms of the volatility I think stable coins like USDC USDT definitely help solve that. A lot of the payments in the e-commerce system now are starting to run heavily using some of Circles products and some of these stablecoins, and I think they bring a huge benefit.

We are Helio but also recognise that there’s a big part of the ecosystem where people are playing in fun things like community coins, you know one of the early ones was like Dogecoin but right now on Solana there’s a lot of memecoins. And there’s a lot of liquidity in memecoins. So we allow a feature like swaps that lets merchants let customers pay using a meme coin but it is automatically set for a merchant so that they receive USDC or something that’s more stable.

We have to build to solve some of these things, uh I don’t think crypto volatility is going away. I think it’s a part of our space but we have to build for it.

[Catherine]

That’s very informative, thank you. It’s fascinating to see how both UQUID and Helio are navigating these challenges to foster broader acceptance and integration of crypto payments into everyday transactions.

Now, let’s explore the technological foundations of Helio a bit. Helio initially chose Solana as its primary blockchain but has since expanded to include other blockchains such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Polygon. Could you share with us why Helio started with Solana and how this choice has shaped your product roadmap?

[Helio]

I think we’re we’re not maxis of any kind and so really we started building on Solana because you know when we use the existing solutions and we’re trying to build a platform when you have a huge gas fees on the L1, it kind of makes a lot of these use cases unviable so we started from that problem statement of the current L1.

Like if I wanna make a hundred dollar purchase and it cost me 20 dollars in cash and obviously a lot of the times it was much more than that but if it’s now $20 for a hundred dollar purchase, it’s really not fulfilling crypto’s use case for payments. So I think what Solana offered was a solution that solved that problem, I think L2 tried to solve that problem and I think they’re they’re getting better the problem with L2 is every time that you know you use an L2 there’s a level of confusion because it looks and feels like the same thing.

But you know it’s on a different network or I have to bridge etcetera . So Solana was a was a simple place that provided fast cheap easy to use payments and and that’s kind of why we started that but we know that there needs to be you know multi chain functionality and there are huge and excellent ecosystems outside Islana so that we added support for Ethereum for Polygon and our Bitcoin.

We can see great volume coming from all of those, I guess the benefit of us having started on Salona is we are able to building testings in an environment that you know let us build a feature rich platform and now we’re starting to translate those same features to the other chain so you know we’re able to build subscriptions so specifically for Solana where we have subscriptions products which means you can have a recurring payment, something which is much more difficult to do.

On the other platforms we have compressed NFTs or NFTs that are cheap enough that we can use them as receipts or as like proof of payments, we have things like split payments so it’s quite easy for you to receive a payment from a customer and split it across multiple wallets, we also have things like affiliate payments which means I can allow somebody that’s looking at my product to say “hey I could help create a market for this product for you” same way how Amazon serves your .

You can create a link from it for an Amazon product and you can go find customers from Amazon whether you’re an influencer or you know you’ve got your own website and you get some percentage or some fee from it. We were able to build the same things out of Salona again because of the way it works , the cheap transactions and it’s meant that we’ve built a lot of great features and now we’re able to translate those across the other chains, where possible.

So we started in Solana and it allowed us to do tests and fail quickly and now we’re able to translate the learnings from that to some of the other blockchains that we’re working on.

[Catherine]

That’s fascinating. It’s clear that Solana’s capabilities have played a crucial role in Helio’s development and its ability to innovate and adapt in the fast-evolving crypto payments landscape. Your strategic expansions to other blockchains highlight the importance of versatility in this sector.

Now, moving on to a strategic comparison made recently by Helio’s CEO in an interview with Cointelegraph, where Apple Pay was cited as the benchmark for crypto mobile payments. This is a significant comparison, given Apple Pay’s prominence in the digital payments space. Could you explain why Helio has chosen this benchmark and what steps your team is taking to not just compete with but potentially exceed the convenience and speed of traditional payment services like Apple Pay?

[Helio]

Are you looking to include Google Play in this right? I think that they both have great UX and I think the reason why we use them as examples is we like to think of crypto applications as being meaningful and as good if not better in their use than their arrivals right, like all the existing solutions. We don’t think that people should use crypto products just because “hey I’m gonna use the web free version of that right” or crypto version of that massive option are going to come when it’s not an alternative but it’s the best option.

Which means that if we’re looking at what we need to be or be to attract users it means the UX needs to be better than the current and that’s apple Pay so that’s why we use that as a reference. It’s definitely paying respect to the product that they built and how easy it is to use . And so we try to look at those ideas when we’re building where we know that a lot of our customers use Helio on their mobile.

So we make sure that the UX, how things look and how things function and operate on mobile is as good if not better than on desktop cause you know that’s the majority of the time where people use the payments functionality when they’re on the move. So we make Helio checkout looks and feels and works like the embedded payments, buttons like platforms like stripe.

So where you have solutions like copy and paste the address and copy and paste the amount of crypto like this is not how payments work in the real world. UX that exists in the non crypto world so we shouldn’t be using these kind of solutions because they create uh errors. Anytime you have to do something as a human as part of a payment process it creates a risk of something going wrong so I think we try to make that easier experience as close to the web 2 versions or the best web 2 versions as possible .

I think how we try to make it easy is we give people the option to operate on as many change as possible or the biggest ones with the most use and we allow instant settlement so you know we don’t take custody of the funds. so I think that’s a big benefit and you know we try to build for and highlight some of these things

[Catherine]

That’s an ambitious goal, and it’s inspiring to hear how Helio is pushing the boundaries to provide a superior payment experience. Enhancing speed and convenience in crypto payments not only challenges the status quo but also sets a new standard for what users can expect from digital transactions.

Now, let’s delve into another crucial aspect of your service — user experience. We know that for crypto payments to gain wider acceptance, the user interface needs to be as simple as possible. Can you share with us the steps Helio is taking to simplify the user interface and educate potential users about the benefits of using crypto payments on the Solana blockchain?

[Helio]

I just say you know we do payments for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ordinals, Polygon, so it’s not just SoLana but yeah definitely we can we can talk about it . I think what we try to do is we make the product so simple to use that it’s like the majority of the time our product is used on a self-serve basis. The user experience on the UX is so clear that people don’t even need to speak to us in order to use our product and so a lot of customers uh who don’t use our product will never speak to them.

Of course we’re there if they need some support then they have a successful sales experience and great, we provide a product that works so simply but also at the same time we know we’re available. I think we provide best in class customer support so the founders are there in every chat room, both the founders are deeply involved in technical discussions with customers helping them make sure that they’re able to set up the best process for their platform or maybe just their product.So trying to keep things that even somebody who’s not versed in the space can use it.

[Catherine]

That sounds like a comprehensive approach to ensuring that new and existing users can easily navigate and fully utilize your platform. The focus on education and ease of use is especially crucial in bringing more people into the fold of crypto payments. Thank you for detailing those efforts.

As we begin to wrap up today’s insightful discussion, I’d like to ask both of our esteemed panelists one final question. Looking forward, what additional improvements do you believe are necessary in the crypto payment sector, and how are both UQUID and Helio planning to innovate to meet these future needs? Let’s start with UQUID.

[UQUID — Lola]

Thank you, Catherine. As we look to the future at UQUID, our focus is set on expanding and enhancing the accessibility and efficiency of crypto payments in e-commerce.

To start, we’re committed to supporting a variety of crypto payment methods, allowing our users to choose the best options that suit their needs. This includes integrating the latest blockchain technologies that offer the fastest transaction speeds and lowest fees, such as Solana, and ensuring cross-blockchain compatibility to adapt quickly to new and efficient technologies as they arise.

Moreover, security and transparency in payments are paramount. We are enhancing payment security using blockchain’s inherent features, ensuring that all transactions are secure but also transparent, and traceable, which helps build trust among our users.

To cater to a global audience, UQUID supports multiple cryptocurrencies, including major coins and stablecoins, to mitigate the risk associated with volatility.

This multi-currency support ensures that users across different regions can shop conveniently and confidently.

User-centric design and accessibility are also at the heart of our efforts.

We’re continuously refining our platform’s interface to ensure it is intuitive and accessible for everyone, regardless of their technical savvy. This includes optimizing our mobile and web platforms to ensure a seamless shopping experience.

Additionally, education is a key component of our strategy to enhance user adoption of crypto payments. UQUID provides various educational resources aimed at demonstrating and clarifying the use of cryptocurrencies for payments, which helps users feel more comfortable and confident in using these new technologies.

Lastly, community engagement and feedback loops are crucial to our ongoing development. We actively engage with our community to gather feedback, which informs our innovations and service improvements.

In 2024, UQUID will continue to innovate by focusing on these areas, ensuring that our platform not only meets but exceeds the expectations of our users, making crypto payments a mainstream option for online shopping.

[Catherine]

Thank you so much Lola. So how about Helio? Could you also share your perspectives of the future of crypto payment industry, and the innovations that Helio is looking to bring into the market?

[Helio Speaker]

Definitely! But before I get there… When Helio on Uquid is the real question!

[Catherine]

Yeah! We’re in the very close discussion with our team and also our tech team because we’re having big campaign coming. But we’re in very close discussion with our management team to find out about this opportunity. But I think this is a very good opportunity to bring Helio on Uquid Shop. So I will keep you and our audience updated!

[Helio Speaker]

Amazing. From my point of view in terms of the future is that I think Uquid is doing quite a great job. What I think we should all be doing is having a bigger product range. The bigger range of product offerings that consumers can have access to and to be operated in crypto, the better. And Uquid is doing an excellent job at this, even being able to top up your credit for mobile, gaming credits, and many more.

Specifically from our point of view, we’re looking for strategic partners. We’re already multi-chain and I can see vendors being able to take payments in any currency, even though they might be operating in different chains. So whether you’re doing an NFT Mint on Solana, they want to pay in Ethereum, Bitcoin… I think that it is a great use case, I think that is more of what we want to see in the future and what we want to support. I think we’ve been building the space and great development skills. We’ve been rated one of the top development shops in the ecosystem, you know, we got a way of building products that comes from a mature building point of view. We’d love to deploy our product development skill set in different areas. That’s kind of our view for the future.

[Catherine]

Thank you for outlining those forward-thinking strategies. It’s exciting to hear how UQUID is continuing to push the envelope in the integration of crypto payments into e-commerce.
