One thing I love about Stripe is just how well versed their founders are, and can talk in such a wide range of subjects. Most fintech CEO's are just focused on their business area and dare to go outside of this, but the Collinsons are different. And in a really good way! This is a case in point:

Totally agree. Clear on vision but have in depth technical and business knowledge to also talk broadly. This article was a great read. I highly recommending watching/listening to this interview from 2012 with Patrick where he goes in depth on Stripe, how and why they build and much more. I referenced it in this post: https://www.startupgrind.com/blog/from-the-vault-patrick-collison-stripe-full-startup-grind-interview-2012/
