Episode 56 | Shivani Phull from Pixelynx on Becoming a Web3 CFO The Accountant Quits Podcast

- Technology
Choosing accounting as a career path seems to be losing some of its prestige in recent years.
Technologies like AI and blockchain will not take the accountants’ jobs but rather, it’s those accountants who have upskilled themselves on blockchain who will.
So rather than being seen as a threat, many accountants are evolving with blockchain.
On Episode 56, I spoke with Shivani Phull, the VP of Finance & Investments at Pixelynx, an AI music creation platform.
Shivani is also a CFO Advisor at the Crypto Accounting Group, a crypto accounting & taxation services firm, and a Mentor at Outlier Ventures, a web3 VC and accelerator.
