#99: Institutional Crypto Trading & Yield with Bo Zhang from Function

8d ago 49:33

MP3•Episode home

Why are so many Web3 projects with massive treasuries not doing active treasury management?

That’s the question we explore in this episode with Bo Zhang, COO at Function: a project building the rails that allow Bitcoin to actually function: liquid, composable, and yield-generating.

Together with Bo, we dive deep into the intersection of institutional trading & token management, treasury management, and working with market makers.

Bo is also one of the instructors of our upcoming course: the Crypto Treasury Management Academy launching October 29th, designed to help web3 finance professionals learn how to optimize, allocate, and protect their organization’s crypto treasury.
