Crunchfish launched their Rethinking Payments campaign as the manifestation of the go-to-market turnaround strategy announced in the CEO word of the Q1-report 2025 focused on respecting the roles and responsibilities of payment networks and service providers in the payments ecosystem. This new Rethinking Payments concept has been presented at several occasions such as this June analyst interview, Currency Research P.I.T. Podcast, SODA interview as a follow up to the IMF Fintech Note, and recent presentation at the CB+DC Conference in the Bahamas. The payments industry is increasingly validating Crunchfish way of Rethinking Payments and the best evidence as of today is that a world-leading payment network is piloting Crunchfish layer-2 architecture. The novel and contrarian way of Rethinking Payments is described on Crunchfish’s website, including a description of Crunchfish Digital Cash layer-2 solution and a comparison with common layer-1 payment systems.
