Hi everyone, we are back with another episode of our podcast allowing you to get to know people working behind the scenes of the crypto industry. Today we are lucky to be joined once again by Krishnan Nair, an engineering & MBA professional focused on building technology products & high-performing teams. He’s also currently VP of Product at 21.co.

Welcome to the 163rd episode of the Inside Crypto Podcast. This episode was recorded on September 8th, 2023. With the launch of 21.co’s new tokens, we talked to Krish about some of the challenges behind these wrapped tokens. We also talk about how the company approached security for these products a bit differently.

Thanks, everyone for listening, and don’t forget to tune in next week when we once again have Gurjeet Kundi (Head of Trading) on the podcast to talk about liquidity and market making.
