In this episode, we speak with Jonathan Mathai, Director at G20 Strategies, to unpack how market making works across crypto, DeFi, and traditional finance. Jonathan explains the role of market makers, how liquidity is created in both order book and AMM-based markets, and why uptime, slippage, and volume matter for healthy market structure. The conversation also explores yield generation, risk management, hedging strategies, and how market makers navigate volatility, MEV, and emerging tools like AI as crypto markets continue to mature.

In this episode, we speak with Ivan Branco, who leads information management, AI, and analytics for the Volvo Group's logistics operations in Belgium, about the real-world case for blockchain in enterprise manufacturing. The conversation covers why blockchain is still misunderstood in the boardroom and how to change that, the country of origin compliance problem and the costly fines it creates, Volvo's internal exploration of a proprietary cryptocurrency for supplier transactions, the fragmented blockchain landscape and how too many competing chains undermine trust, and why cultural change is the true barrier to adoption.

In this episode, we speak with Sam Lambert and Theodore Morisis, the founders of Palmyra, a Cardano-based platform bringing transparency and fair access to global commodity markets. They explain how Palmyra helps farmers capture verifiable supply-chain data, meet regulations like EUDR, and connect directly with buyers through its traceability tools, B2B marketplace, and consumer storefront. The discussion also highlights lessons from their Zambian pilot, offline-first design for low-connectivity regions, and why Cardano’s security and reliability provide a strong foundation for mission-critical trade infrastructure.
