Benjamin Meeder shared thisChargebacks are one of the biggest hidden threats to gaming businesses. They’re what happens when your payments experience and your player experience don’t agree. When that gap exists, the bank decides. And you lose. We broke down the real reasons this happens (and how to fix it) in this quick video. If you’re building in gaming or handling digital goods, this is worth the 2 minutes. ▶️ https://lnkd.in/ghVTzz3d

Benjamin Meeder reposted thisBenjamin Meeder reposted thisI can’t help it. I'm wonkishly fascinated with payments now. #FintechAndy 🤓 It’s one of those things that feels “done”… until you look closely. Then you realize money still moves like it’s the 90s—slow, fragmented, full of weird edge cases and silent failures. The future of payments isn’t another UI layer. It’s a remix of the rails. It's money that moves at internet speed, not banking hours. Instant settlement. Global by default. Infrastructure that doesn’t fall apart when you cross a border or scale volume. Systems where fraud, reconciliation, and movement are handled at the rails, not duct-taped after. Exactly what we're building at Coinflow. We’re pushing toward a world where payments just work: fast, reliable, and borderless. No waiting days. No patchwork systems. No hidden friction. So, forgive me while I geek out on the 9 leading-edge innovations shaping modern #payments → https://lnkd.in/gbyDbrX8

Benjamin Meeder liked thisBenjamin Meeder liked thisAfter 6.5 years, today is my last day at Domino Data Lab. I joined in 2019 as a Technical Support Engineer. I'm leaving as a Director. That growth happened because of the people around me. Brilliant colleagues who challenged me, taught me, and made me better at what I do. Some moments I'll carry with me: winning the People's Choice Award at a hackathon with the team that built Pippy, traveling to customer sites and watching lightbulb moments in real time, representing Domino at conferences, and the late nights on tough migrations that bonded us as a team. But more than the projects, I'll remember the people. The late-night slack messages when something broke. The laughs during team calls. The trust placed in me as I grew into leadership. To my team and everyone I've collaborated with across PS, Support, Engineering, Product, Sales, and Marketing: thank you for making this more than just a job. I'm going to miss this place and the people in it ❤️

Benjamin Meeder liked thisBenjamin Meeder liked thisAnother week, another supply chain compromise ⛓️💥 A package with approximately 100 million weekly downloads was compromised this week to deliver a cross-platform Remote Access Trojan (RAT) to multiple systems and OSes. The Axios npm package is not the first widely-used package to be compromised and it is unlikely to be the last. As you can imagine, attacking a component that is included in software from a host of different companies around the world is the ideal target for malicious actors. This enables them to hit multiple targets with a single blow. Conversations following this attack got me thinking about how we look at traditional security and what changes we may need to make to our standard way of thinking. I won't be delving into the technical complexities of this attack but instead on the cause and effect from an information security perspective. 🧍 A compromised maintainer account was used to publish the malicious versions of the package, enforcing the importance of the human element in the attack chain. Even technical people can get caught out so it's important for everyone to be aware of the dangers associated with social engineering and phishing techniques. 🔒 Additionally, strong authentication mechanisms for all user accounts are essential. 🐞 Traditional vulnerability management approaches require updating to latest versions to take advantage of security patches, but in this case an update would have led to potential compromise. It may be time to delay updates for a few days to ensure that no issues are noted in the updated versions of software and packages. I could ramble on and on with regards to supply chain attacks and the controls that can potentially protect an organisation, but I think this post is long enough, so I'll leave it at that. #infosec #security #npm #package #axios #compromise #supplychain #attack

Benjamin Meeder liked thisBenjamin Meeder liked this13 years at ServiceNow today. 🎉 I got a nice anniversary message from Bill McDermott this morning — full disclosure: it was AI-generated. But honestly? That's kind of fitting for a company betting big on AI to run the world's workflows.. Over the past 13 years I've watched this company go from ITSM vendor to platform to AI powerhouse. The tools we use to connect with each other are changing just as fast as the products we build and sell. What hasn't changed: the people, the pace, and the genuine belief that we're building something that matters. I joined ServiceNow because I wanted to know where the platform ends. Started as the first technical consultant in Switzerland. Built, led, grew. Now five years into Product Excellence and still as curious as day one. I haven't found the end yet. To everyone who's been part of this journey — colleagues, teammates, customers, partners — thank you. The support over the years has meant more than I can say. Still loving this company and the incredible people I get to work with every day. 🙏 And if you're heading to Knowledge 26 — come find me!

Benjamin Meeder liked thisBig milestone for Built. Really excited to see this partnership with U.S. Bank go live. It’s a strong validation that the work we’re doing is resonating with major lenders and actually improving how construction lending operates day to day. What stands out to me is the shift toward a single connected platform across borrowers, builders, and lenders. A lot of the friction in this space has always come from fragmented systems and manual coordination. Pulling that into one system meaningfully improves speed and clarity. This is the kind of change that directly shows up in faster draws, fewer delays, and a better experience for everyone involved. Proud to be part of the team pushing this forward!Benjamin Meeder liked thisProud to partner with U.S. Bank U.S. Bank's consumer mortgage and commercial construction lending teams are leveraging Built to support their clients across the country. Borrowers and builders can manage draws, inspections, and budgets, with the entire project in one connected platform. The result: faster funding, full transparency, and far less friction in the construction lending process. This is how real estate and construction finance should work. https://lnkd.in/gMqibUMRU.S. Bank Integrates Built Platform To Streamline Construction Lending For Borrowers And BuildersU.S. Bank Integrates Built Platform To Streamline Construction Lending For Borrowers And Builders

Cascading AI • 5K followers
🚀 Thrilled to share that Casca has raised a $29M Series A led by Canapi Ventures, with participation from Live Oak Bank, Huntington National Bank, Peterson Ventures, and Y Combinator! When Lukas Haffer and I started Casca, we saw a lending industry held back by inefficiency. Lenders were spending months analyzing 100+ documents across 15 different point solutions, manually entering data into endless spreadsheets, and struggling with fragmented workflows that slowed down the very businesses they wanted to help. From our time studying the forefront of Artificial Intelligence at Stanford University School of Engineering, we knew AI could transform this entirely. THE JOURNEY: We didn't build this from Silicon Valley conference rooms. Our team packed bags and spent two years embedded with our banking partners – living in AirBnBs minutes from their offices, sitting shoulder-to-shoulder with lenders, underwriters, and credit officers. Through thousands of hours together, we transformed processes that once took dozens of hours into simple button clicks. OUR INCREDIBLE PARTNERS: This wouldn't be possible without the visionary teams who believed in reimagining lending from day one: 🏦 Live Oak Bank – Neil Underwood, Chip Mahan, and Renato Derraik didn't just become partners; they became mentors who made North Carolina feel like home and shared our vision for better banking. 🏦 Huntington National Bank – Christian Corts, Scott M. Anderson, and Tom Leenheer, II joined our mission in giving millions of business owners faster access to the funding they need to grow. 🏦 Bankwell, Alliance Funding Group, New Frontier Funding LLC, TF Lending and many more – each partnership shaped our platform through invaluable feedback and real-world testing. THE TEAM: To my co-founder Lukas Haffer – no one better to build alongside. To our team of engineers and product builders – your willingness to spend countless hours in bank offices across the country and your commitment to our customers' success is what makes Casca extraordinary. Today, what used to require months of manual work across multiple systems now happens in minutes through our AI-powered platform. From intelligent financial spreading to automated credit memos and compliant closing packages – we're not just digitizing lending, we're reimagining it. We're just getting started building the future of business lending. 🌐 Join us! https://lnkd.in/gXKWEKDf #fintech #ai #lending #banking #sba #startup #ycombinator Kristie Falcioni Margaret Frye Adlon Adams Derick Guan Elliott Chong Serhii Nechyporchuk Garrett Wade Sarah Koulogeorge Jordan Moore Raghav Ramasamy Blake Dunson Mithil Patil Ahmad Akhrass Ahmad Choudhary Sarah Smith ilana stern Jared Friedman Damien Weiss

The End of "Bank vs. Fintech"? Capital One Acquires Brex for $5.15B 🚀 The fintech landscape just shifted. Capital One has officially entered into an agreement to acquire Brex, the AI-native platform that redefined corporate cards and spend management. This isn't just another acquisition; it’s a massive validation of "Vertical Integration." Why this matters: 🔹 Scale meets Speed: Brex brings the "Foundermode" agility and AI-driven workflow automation. Capital One brings a $700B balance sheet and massive distribution. 🔹 The B2B Revolution: Traditional banks are realizing that to win the next decade of business banking, they need more than just a portal, they need an integrated software ecosystem. 🔹 AI is the Infrastructure: This deal highlights how AI isn't just a "feature" anymore; it's the core engine for underwriting and expense management at scale. As we see the US market consolidate, it makes me wonder... Is India next? 🇮🇳 Will a Tier-1 Indian bank step up to acquire a home-grown spend management giant? Or will our fintechs stay the course to IPO? The conditions in India are ripe for something similar in the next 12–18 months. Here is my outlook for 2026-27: 1. The "Consolidation Phase" has begun - Indian fintech funding stabilized at approximately $2.4 billion in 2025, but M&A activity is becoming the primary exit strategy. Large players like Groww (which recently acquired Fisdom) are already acting as "consolidators." 2. Banks are hungry for "Tech-First" identities - Large private banks (HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Axis Bank) are under pressure to offer more than just credit lines. They need the "operating system" for businesses. Acquiring a spend-management startup (like Karbon Card, EnKash, or Volopay) would allow an Indian bank to instantly digitize its entire SME/MSME portfolio. 3. The Regulatory Catalyst - The RBI’s focus on "Responsible AI" and "Digital Lending Guidelines" has made compliance expensive for smaller fintechs. For many, merging with a regulated bank is the most viable way to survive and scale without the constant friction of changing "FLDG" (First Loss Default Guarantee) rules. 4. IPO vs. Acquisition - While the US sees megadeals like Brex, the top-tier Indian fintechs (PhonePe, Razorpay) are marching toward IPOs in 2026. However, "mid-market" fintechs, those valued between $200M to $500M are the prime candidates for acquisition by banks looking to skip 5 years of R&D. The Verdict: We might not see a $5B deal immediately, but a "Bank-acquires-Fintech" trend is inevitable in India as banks try to defend their territory against the rise of "embedded finance." Interestingly, reverse has happened in India as well where startups like slice has acquired North East Small Finance Bank! What do you think? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments! 👇 #Fintech #Banking #Acquisition #Brex #CapitalOne #StartupIndia

A quiet but important shift happening in crypto infrastructure. Chicago-based ZeroHash has taken the step to submit an application for a National Trust Bank Charter in the U.S. with the OCC. This development suggests that the company's stablecoin and digital asset services might fall under one unified federal regulatory framework rather than each complying with over 50 different state licenses. ZeroHash currently has operations in all 51 US jurisdictions and names Morgan Stanley, Stripe, Interactive Brokers, and Franklin Templeton among its clients. A federal charter may open up substantial opportunities for the stablecoin and blockchain payment sectors to merge with traditional finance. And it’s not happening in isolation. Companies like Circle, Paxos, BitGo, Ripple, Crypto.com, and Fidelity Digital Assets have all pursued similar trust structures, signalling a broader industry shift toward regulated crypto infrastructure. In many ways, this is the next phase of adoption: Bare crypto products alone will not be sufficient for adoption... We are integrating them into the traditional financial system. Stablecoins, payments, custody and settlement systems are all moving from being the domain of start-ups to becoming part of the core infrastructure of traditional financial institutions. The divide between traditional finance and blockchain technologies continues to close. #Crypto #Stablecoins #Blockchain #Fintech #DigitalAssets #Regulation #Web3 #Payments #InstitutionalAdoption
