    Ep. 176 Why Tokenized Treasuries Need Real-Time Settlement

    On this episode of Crypto Mavericks, we sit down with Jerald David, CEO of Lynq, to break down one of the biggest infrastructure opportunities in crypto and traditional finance: real-time, yield-bearing settlement. Lynq is building a dedicated Avalanche L1 designed to help institutions move Treasury-backed funds instantly while still earning interest. We discuss why settlement, collateral mobility, tokenized Treasuries, and RWAs are becoming major themes across the digital asset industry, and why these tools could reshape how institutions move money, manage collateral, and access liquidity. JD also explains why 24/7 settlement matters, how Lynq fits into the future of institutional digital asset markets, and why tokenized assets only become truly powerful when they can be used as live collateral. If you want to understand where institutional crypto, RWAs, stablecoins, and the next generation of financial infrastructure are heading, this is a conversation you do not want to miss.

    Ep. 172 The Hidden Layer Powering Crypto, KYC, Fraud, and the Future of Onboarding

    Crypto is entering a new phase, one where growth alone is no longer enough. Platforms are being forced to balance speed with security, and compliance is becoming a core part of the infrastructure that allows the industry to scale. In this episode, we sit down with Christian Nunez from Sumsub to break down what’s really happening behind the scenes. From onboarding and identity verification to fraud prevention and AI-driven attacks, we explore how exchanges and Web3 platforms are adapting to a more complex and higher-risk environment. We also dive into the shift away from “growth at all costs,” why 74% of firms now prioritize verification accuracy, and what this means for the future of crypto adoption, regulation, and institutional involvement. This is a look at the layer most people never see, but one that will define how big crypto can actually become.
