Anders Brownworth
I am a technologist focused on digital currencies. I am co-founder of Radius where we are scaling the Ethereum virtual machine far into the millions of transactions per second. The goal is to enable a new business model for the internet, one based around micropayments that drops the per transaction cost by orders of magnitude.
I’ve also been publishing some work on stablecoins through my position at MIT's DCI. I helped create and launch USDC during my time at Circle. I also produce explainer videos on YouTube that have amassed millions of views.
