Ownership S1E0: 8bitpenis (Ownership)
Welcome to Ownership. In this intro episode, 8bitpenis lays the foundation for the series - why Ownership exists, what problems it explores, and why capital formation in crypto needs a rethink. This episode covers the breakdown of traditional token models, the failures of capital allocation in Web3, and the emerging ideas shaping the next generation of crypto-native ownership. Season 1 will focus on MetaDAO, new governance models, ownership coins, and the builders pushing these ideas forward.

Ownership Podcast S2 E05: Pavan (Mori Finance)
Pavan, founder of Mori Finance, on how routing orders directly to market makers can bring liquid options to almost any coin on Solana. We cover his journey from buying DAI at 88 cents to becoming most of LedgerX’s liquidity, and how Mori gives everyone the equivalent of a market-maker account through a DeFi front end and CeFi back end with no smart contracts. Plus why options beat perps and delta-neutral farming, covered calls and spreads, $1.7M in monthly volume, taking 12% of premiums, launching with low FDV and no team tokens, and builder codes for distribution through other front ends. Guest: Pavan, Mori Finance Host: 8bitpenis
Ownership Podcast S2 E04: Marc Ryan (Spout Finance)
Marc Ryan, co-founder of Spout Finance, on how pairing covered calls with lending can give tokenised stock holders interest-free leverage. We cover how Spout uses options on borrower collateral to pay lenders, creating 0% loans with a cost of capital 10 to 20 times cheaper than competing platforms. Plus covered-call tail risk, token wrappers versus native issuance, why Spout scrapped its own issuance to become a permissionless DeFi layer, the $2M raise, moving options onchain, regulatory clarity, and why Marc believes all public equities will be tokenised within five to 10 years.

Ownership Podcast S2 E03: Lili (over.computer)
Lili, co-founder of Over.computer, on why prop firms profit when traders fail and how Over lets traders own the house. We cover how prop challenges actually work, FTMO’s $850M year, why payouts come from traders who lost before you, and why the next 1,000x in trading could come from incentive design rather than leverage. Plus tokenised stocks and crypto perps, rising payout caps, prediction markets, OIP-1, why Over.computer is launching on Solana and MetaDAO, and agentic trading as the biggest risk to the prop industry.
