His businesses work on many different things. XBTO is a firm that trades, makes markets, and more, using all their own money. They are one of the top market makers in crypto and have been one of the earliest trading participants on both the CME and Bakkt platforms.We talk about making markets, token economics, directional bias, and much more. It's really fun, and I think you'll enjoy hearing from someone deeply involved in crypto.Other linksPhilippe on Twitter @philippebekXBTO on TwitterXBTO websiteStablehouseAs mentioned at the beginning of the show, Brave New Coin is doing an IEO.
