The conversation also covers merchant incentives, user experience challenges, and how blockchain-based payments can support faster transactions, lower fees, and broader adoption in real-world environments.

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 Monty Metzger, Founder and CEO of LCX, to explore how blockchain adoption has shifted from hype to real-world utility.

Metzger also shares insights on institutional demand for tokenized commodities and financial instruments, the Toto Finance platform (formerly Tiamonds), and how blockchain increasingly operates as a foundational layer for global finance and trade.
