Cooper Thompson is Head of Product for Embedded Finance at Fiserv, based in McAllen, Texas. His work centers on digital assets and embedded finance, including Fiserv's own stablecoin, FIUSD, which is described as soon to launch and potentially available in banks' and credit unions' mobile apps by next year. Thompson holds a Hyperledger Fabric Certified Practitioner certification from The Linux Foundation, issued in November 2024.

Thompson has published technical tutorials on database and infrastructure topics, including guides on Neo4j, CouchDB with ElasticSearch, and Serf cluster configuration on Ubuntu. He has articulated a position that bridging decentralized finance and traditional banking is both viable and necessary, arguing that banks provide essential capital infrastructure that the crypto sector relies on, and that bringing banks on-chain expands access to financial products on a 24/7/365 basis. He also built Every So, a personal relationship management app, and has shared his views on the GENIUS Act and the trajectory of digital asset regulation in the context of credit union strategy.

Joe Healey is Head of Digital Assets at Fiserv, a position he has held since January 2025. His mandate centers on digital assets within Fiserv's product organization, based in Miami Beach, Florida.

Prior to joining Fiserv, Healey co-founded and served as President of INDX, where he led the launch of a real-time 24x7x365 fiat payments platform designed for digital asset companies, lightly licensed businesses, and forward-leaning platforms. Concurrently, he was Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer of SC Trust Co., a regulated financial institution where he obtained a de novo trust charter and built a vertically integrated platform covering account issuance, asset custody, and payment services. Earlier, he co-founded Cambr, a fintech deposit acquisition platform that grew to three million accounts and $1.8 billion in deposits before being sold to NBH Bank. Before that, he co-founded StoneCastle Digital, where he structured a banking-as-a-service partnership that scaled to approximately two dozen fintech programs with five million accounts before exiting to Q2 Software. Across his career, Healey describes himself as an early employee or co-founder in five start-ups, two of which exited to public companies and one of which scaled to over $25 billion in assets under management.
