Understanding Regional Expansion With Crypto.com’s GM for APAC & MEA, Karl Mohan | Blockcast EP 32

Quickly becoming a household name for crypto supporters, as well as an equally recognisable brand for sports fans, Crypto.com has already established a global footprint. But what are the challenges facing a global crypto exchange?


In this week's Blockcast, we sit down with Crypto.com's GM for APAC & MEA and Global Head of Banking Partnerships, Karl Mohan to learn more about regulatory differences, branding, and cultural reception of crypto across borders. Having moved recently from Melbourne to Singapore, Mohan is new to the Little Red Dot but is more than familiar with tackling challenges across state lines.


Additionally, Mohan reflects on his transition from his decade-long career in TradFi to the disruptive field of crypto, and how the exchange is retaining a dominant lead in the space.

🎙️ Hey there, Blockcast listeners! 🎙️

Before you dive deep into the crypto chaos, here's a little heads-up from your pals at Blockhead. While we love unraveling the blockchain tapestry and sharing our findings, remember, our chats are just that—chats. They're not financial blueprints or crystal balls. So, whether you're a crypto veteran or just dipping your toes, always do your own research and consult with a pro before making any financial moves. After all, in the world of crypto, it's always best to take things with a pinch of satoshi... or salt. Dive in responsibly! 🚀🧂
