We kicked off Fintech Fringe 2025 with the Innovation Track, diving into the ideas, regulation, and technologies reshaping the future of finance. Fintech’s Future: What’s In, What’s Out explored the trends redefining the landscape. From the rise of Stablecoins, with US legislation bringing crypto into the mainstream, to the growing role of AI in customer engagement, the discussion focused on ethics, trust, and how smarter regulation is setting a new bar for fintechs. In TradFi Meets DeFi: Is the Future Tokenised?, experts from HSBC and the Midnight Foundation unpacked how traditional finance is moving onto the blockchain. From tokenised gold to real-world assets, they explored how tokenisation can make finance more transparent, accessible, and efficient. Finally, Stablecoins: How the UK Can Lead the Global Race brought together leaders from Greengage, Bank of London, and OpenPayd to discuss how the UK can define its own path in digital currency innovation through regulation, competitiveness, and real-world use cases. This track set the tone for a festival built on action, not theory, showcasing the operators defining where fintech goes next. Thank you to our speakers: Ian Horne, Author: Why DeFi Matters & Oliver Smith, Head of Content, Money2020. Fahmi Sayed, President Midnight Foundation & Mark Williamson MD, Global Head of FX & Commodities Partnerships & Propositions, HSBC Bank Plc Sean Kiernan, Founder & CEO, Greengage; Hana Rolles, Chief Growth Officer, Bank of London and Michael Treacy, Director of Marketing, OpenPayd Join the Fintech Fringe Forum to follow upcoming insights, speaker takeaways, and industry trends emerging from #FFF25, and be part of the community shaping the future of financial innovation.

Developers *shouldn’t* have to choose between transparency and data protection! We just published the video version of my talk from Vietnam and in 20 minutes, I cover: 🔹 How Selective Disclosure + zero-knowledge proofs make “Programmable Privacy” practical 🔹 Midnight's dual-component tokenomics (NIGHT + DUST) and why it matters for Developer Experience 🔹 Compact, our TypeScript-like language for ZK apps 🔹 Real-world use cases across finance, healthcare, AI, identity, and supply chain 🔹 Building apps that are compliant, auditable, and verifiable, without exposing sensitive data 👩🏼💻 Start building: https://lnkd.in/e77jmGEA ▶️ Watch the talk: https://lnkd.in/eVVD5rC5 I’d love to hear your feedback! What use case should we demo next?
