Stephen Browne

Speaker Bio

Stephen is the CEO and Co-Founder of Sorted Wallet, a non-custodial crypto wallet designed to bring stablecoins and digital assets to everyday users across emerging markets. Sorted is live in 165 countries with over 280,000 downloads, making it one of the most widely distributed crypto wallets built specifically for Africa and the Global South.

Sorted lets users send, receive, and hold USDT and Bitcoin without a bank account — with local cashout options including M-Pesa and bill payments. No bank required. No complexity. Just money that works.

Stephen is passionate about the role stablecoins play as real financial infrastructure — not speculation, but everyday tools for savings, payments, and cross-border transfers in markets where traditional finance has fallen short.

Always happy to connect with telcos, fintechs, developers, investors, and anyone building for the next billion users.
