One of the oldest companies in the space, Blockchain.com has staying power. With over 40 million downloads, Blockchain.com has a large share of bitcoin transactions and the #1 downloaded wallet.

In 2011 the term "blockchain" was not a word. It was not a thing. In fact their website, blockchain.info at the time, was the first page on the internet to ever use the word.

Back in the day (2011), it made the decision to take the non-custodial approach. This was in contrast to Coinbase's custodial approach.

Years later, Peter is still grinding it out at the Blockchain.com headquarters in London. Peter takes an unconventional approach to life and business. As Peter states, "even Roger thinks I'm weird."

We take a look at blockchain phones and the importance of the cell phone in cryptocurrency and blockchain adoption.

Blockchain 2025 listeners, we recently published an interview with Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne on the Bitcoin.com Podcast Network.
