Markus Levin, founder of XYO Network

39 minutes

The ninth episode of the BCR podcast brings Markus Levin from XYO Network (XYO-USD). Markus is the co-founder of that protocol. It serves as an Oracle for Web3 platforms and allows users to monetize their data through a variety of different engagements with the XYO platform. XYO was started by XY Labs and there's actually a second token that represents equity in XY Labs. That token is XYLB and is registered "security token" that trades on the tZERO platform.

Topics we covered during the podcast include but are not limited to:

Markus' background and building the COIN platform to work with Web2 companies for data monetization

Using data Oracles to combat things like fake information

Getting Web2 companies exposed to crypto rails

User engagement of the COIN platform

The somewhat controversial decision to work with US regulators on a decentralized blockchain project

Data monetization in the 'metaverse'

Issues with the SEC's approach to regulation

How tokenization changes equity offerings in the future

End game for the XY Labs token
