  1. Ownership Podcast S1 E6: Maushish (Paystream)

    30 MAR

    Ownership Podcast S1 E6: Maushish (Paystream)

    Maushish, founder of Paystream, comes back 5 months after raising $750K through MetaDAO to give a honest account of what building post-raise actually looks like. He covers his early skepticism about futarchy, how the Omnipair and Umbra raises convinced him, what the Ranger liquidation proved about the mechanism, and why Paystream has since pivoted from LPing to funding rate arbitrage on perps. The back half of the conversation gets technical — how funding rate arb works, why most opportunities are under $20K, how Paystream's auto-close mechanism protects principal, and what the path to sustainability looks like before the treasury runs dry. A rare episode that skips the pitch and goes straight to the reality of building inside the MetaDAO ecosystem. Hosted by 8bitpenis. Sponsored by MetaDAO. Produced by Blockformer.

    Ownership Podcast S1 E5: Sheldon (P2P.me)

    Sheldon from P2P joins 8bitpenis to explain why a startup backed by Multicoin and Coinbase Ventures chose MetaDAO over another VC round. The answer is about regulatory survival. P2P operates in India, Brazil, Argentina, and Indonesia — markets without clear regulatory frameworks for crypto on/off ramps. Decentralizing ownership to 50,000+ token holders across 50 countries isn't ideological. It's structural protection. The conversation covers how P2P actually works (USDC settlement over UPI, Pix, and PromptPay in under 90 seconds), how they prevent fraud with zkKYC and an AI fraud engine, how the spread-based revenue model works market by market, and what the Circles of Trust token model means for global expansion. If you've wondered why stablecoins were built for emerging markets and not the US — this episode explains it clearly. Hosted by 8bitpenis. Produced by Blockformer. Sponsored by MetaDAO.

    Ownership S1 E4: Chris (Loyal)

    In this episode of Ownership, Chris, founder of Loyal, joins 8bitpenis to discuss the chaotic reality of communication in crypto. Most teams coordinate through Telegram, but the platform was never designed for managing large volumes of sensitive information. Loyal is building a privacy-first layer that helps knowledge workers in crypto navigate conversations, extract insights, and maintain confidentiality. Chris explains how the team approached fundraising through MetaDAO, why they avoided traditional VC funding, and what building privacy infrastructure means in a post–Tornado Cash world. The episode also touches on lessons from Umbra, Avici, and Squads, and why tools for crypto knowledge workers remain one of the most overlooked opportunities in the industry.
