No hype, no theater. Just honest conversations about what works, what doesn't, and wh... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Onchain, Honestly! Ep.12 ft. Ava Labs - The Real Business of RWAs
Q: How does Ava Labs collaborate with issuers and fintechs to drive on-chain adoption?
Ava Labs approaches partnerships holistically, combining marketing, capital introductions, business development, and technical support; they actively broker connections between founders and VCs, pitch fintechs, and help embed their partners' products into real user flows, with a focus on getting assets to reach users rather than merely deploying on chain.
Onchain, Honestly! Ep.12 ft. Ava Labs - The Real Business of RWAs
Q: What is the core business model you see for tokenized assets across the stack?
Revenue is most meaningful at the distribution layer, with asset managers earning through traditional management fees expanded by new distribution surfaces, while infrastructure plays a recurring, scalable role through fees tied to issuance, transfer, and administration; the biggest leverage comes from enabling broad distribution and actual end-use rather than just listing assets on chain.
Onchain, Honestly! Ep.6 ft. Theo - How To Scale Tokenized Finance?
Q: How did you bootstrap initial liquidity for TH Bill and other products?
Leading market makers and venture arms funded initial liquidity; the approach is to seed markets with liquidity and then rely on price discovery and a network of on-chain exchanges and DEXs to grow liquidity, complemented by internal market-making in early stages.
Onchain, Honestly! Ep.6 ft. Theo - How To Scale Tokenized Finance?
Q: What exactly are you generating revenue from, and are you profitable so far?
Revenue comes from asset management fees and a share of the trading fees; THBIL has generated over 200 million, and THUSD/TH Gold strategies are being tuned to build scalable, rentable rails while reinvesting profits back into growth.
Onchain, Honestly! Ep. 8 ft. Zerion - Does the Fat Wallet Thesis Still Stand? Zerion’s Next Bets
Q: Abi, within the wallet bucket, what does revenue look like beyond swaps?
Swaps remain the largest revenue stream, but we've experimented with Zerion Premium (a subscription) offering tax reports, P&L views, and other features; enterprise customers show strong but seasonal ROI, with premium subscriptions acting as a hedge and overflow for fixed API contracts.
