Albert Buu is the founder of NeutronPay, a company building a Lightning-powered API and mobile app for moving money around the world.

In our conversation, we discussed NeutronPay’s product and vision for their API, why they’ve decided to initially focus on the Vietnam market, and the adoption and addressable opportunity for Lightning remittances.

This show is a Lightning podcast. That means instead of asking for likes or shares, I ask for sats.
