Connor Lovely and Connor King sit down with Soju and Pranave from Meteora to break down how they’re turning token ownership into something that actually looks like equity. From their 48% float TGE to monthly investor recaps and $12M in discretionary buybacks, they’re building a shareholder base on Solana’s everything exchange, one that values fundamentals over speculation. We cover the pre-TGE roadshow, why there’s no equity entity (only the token), and what real crypto investor relations looks like from the inside.
