Payments are the electricity of the economy and Stripe’s annual letter even called out Tempo as part of where payments are going.

In Episode 5 of The Coordinate, I sat with Mallesh Pai, Researcher at Tempo and The Lay Family Professor in Department of Economics at Rice University to discuss why Tempo is building a payments-first blockchain:

  • TIP-20 (opinionated ERC-20) w/ policies + RBAC + transfer memos
  • Passkeys/WebAuthn + native AA via TempoTransactions
  • Fees paid in stablecoins
  • Payment lanes so payroll & bills don’t break during congestion
  • Sub-second finality
