ZEBEC NETWORK l ZEBEC NATION l Zebec Gazette Ep 10 | Week of Zebec

Added: 2026-05-20

[00:00:20]Welcome back everyone to the Zebecazette brought to you by the Zbec Nation podcast. The only show where payroll streams and stable coins flex. and I'm Zbec Lantern, your trusted poll for Zbec news, questionable enthusiasm, and the occasional financially irresponsible laugh. Okay, let's get right into it.

[00:00:38]So, from May 4th, there was a space, a recap from XRP Las Vegas, I found my favorite part from the space.

[00:00:46]And if you guys actually want me to break down the entire spaces in the future for future episodes, please make a comment. So, let's get right into it.

[00:00:55]seem to be that Zbec will be kind of like bringing its technology to XRPPL.

[00:01:01]So, this feels super important. I know loads of people were really excited by this um because XRPL has such a strong like payment history and ZEC is building around real time finance, payroll, card, stable coin movement. So, I guess give me a little bit more on that. Why is XRPL such a natural environment for what Zbec is building and what are the synergies between Zebex's payroll infrastructure and the XRPL ecosystem?

[00:01:29]What what should the community understand about this next phase?

[00:01:32]>> Great question and I know this is on everyone's mind. There will be news dropping with Ripple soon, but we will get in today to the XRPL topic because that's really the technology that underlies all of this. So XRPL of course is one of the purpose-built chains for payments. It's been around for longer than almost any other chain, it settles in three to five seconds. The fees round to zero. Um, and when you're trying to run payroll for thousands of employees around the world in different countries, you cannot afford to have congestion or unpredictable fees. So XRPPL gives us that performance. Then on the Ripple side, when you think about it, Ripple spent the better half of the last, you know, two decades building institutional relationships that make enterprise payroll possible on a large scale.

[00:02:14]Ripplet supports 300 different banks.

[00:02:16]Ripple holds 75 global licenses. They've made acquisitions like Hidden Road and G Treasury that plug already into Fortune 500 treasury. So in our view, they're a network that already has the distribution. They were just missing the payroll layer and that's where Zbec comes in. The third piece is also really important and that comes down to culture. I think both of our organizations have similar cultures.

[00:02:39]Ripple's always taken the long regulated path and that matches up with our posture as well. Of course, we've achieved all of our compliance and regulatory licenses last year, and I know we'll talk a little bit more about that later, but that's why this in so many ways was the perfect marriage.

[00:02:56]Boom. Drop the mic. Thank you so much, Simon. Can't really explain it better than that. So, I hope you guys were listening and rewind if you need to. May 5th interview with Paul Baron and Simon.

[00:03:09]If you did not watch it, please go watch it. I already shared a clip last week, but please go watch this if you have not. Okay, moving on. May 7th, great day at the Circle Alliance program booth yesterday at Consensus Miami. We showcased the Zebec Super app and met with the current partners, institutions, web 3, and AI startups around the benefits of stream payroll powered by USDC. Boom. Appreciate the circle team for hosting us at the booth. Boom. This is not fake. This is not AI, guys.

[00:03:40]another convention that Sebec Network is rolling in that strong. And if you guys didn't read the post in full, look, it says, "We showcased the Zbec Super app and met with current partners at this convention." This is This has a bunch of AI startups. So, a lot of AI companies are partnering with Zebec. Just saying.

[00:04:01]May 8th, building the payments network of the future does not happen overnight.

[00:04:06]A message Simon echoed on stage during his keynote at XR his keynote speech at XRP Las Vegas as Zbec continues focusing on real products, real utility and compliant payments infrastructures.

[00:04:19]>> Back and look at all of this together, stellar progress, the mobile product, World Liberty Finance, the events that you've got coming up, the tangent piece, Ripple earlier this week. What would you like the community to understand most about this current phase of the Zebeck kind of story?

[00:04:36]>> For those who say that we're in a cryptobear market right now, for us it really is not relevant. You're seeing what real building is all about and building the payments networks of the future do not happen overnight. I think as our community has seen, especially those that have been around for a while, we're bringing the different puzzle pieces together and now things are becoming a lot more clear. We're seeing direct product market fit. We're seeing interest from larger organizations and enterprises, especially we're doing all of this in a very highly regulated world of payments. So things don't happen overnight, but I'm still very happy with the progress that we've made over the past couple of months. And for those of us who have been on this journey for a while, we really appreciate you being here with Zebec and supporting us over the years. And for those who are new to the ecosystem, welcome and please give our products a try. Please dive in.
