Token launches aren’t just hype, they come with tough decisions around valuation, post TGE treasury management, choosing market makers, and legal structures (Foundation and Token SPV)

In this episode, Kevin Leuthardt (Founder of threek advisory, Fractional Web3 CFO and expert director, and former finance lead at Arweave, Safe, and WalletConnect) shares what really happens behind the scenes from TGE to governance and treasury management.

If you’re building in Web3 and want to move beyond hype into real execution, this conversation will give you the clarity most teams wish they had earlier.

Crypto funds trade across exchanges, wallets, custodians, and DeFi protocols.

Trading may be easy but reconciling everything isn’t.

In this episode, I speak with Damon Xu, Founder & CEO of 1Token, about the infrastructure behind institutional crypto asset management.

1Token is a SOC 2 certified platform used by crypto funds and asset managers to manage portfolios, risk, and reporting across CeFi and DeFi, aggregating trades, transactions, and positions across exchanges, custody, OTC desks, wallets, and protocols while automating reconciliation, NAV, and reporting.

Your CFO is not your CTO, and in web3, confusing the two can cost you.

After scaling Squads into the leading multisig on Solana (securing $12B+ in digital assets), Stepan noticed something surprising: teams were using multisigs as their business bank account.

Self-custody? Yes

Operational efficiency? Not quite.

And that gap led to Altitude.

Altitude is a stablecoin-native finance platform combining payments (ACH, Wire, SEPA), treasury yield, AR/AP workflows, and soon corporate cards, giving companies global access without relying on a traditional bank.

If you’re in a stable 9-to-5 job and thinking, “In 2026, I want to start my own crypto accounting firm” , this episode is for you.

Starting an accounting practice isn’t just about technical skills. One of the first and most important decisions you’ll make is choosing your niche, and in crypto, that decision shapes everything that follows.

My guest is Mackenzie Thota, Founder of Hash Basis. At only 25 years old, she left a secure crypto accounting role at Figment, one of the leading blockchain validators, to go fully entrepreneurial and build a crypto-native accounting & tax firm.

Treasury management is one of the most foundational, and least standardized functions in web3.

As organizations operate across fiat, stablecoins, and native tokens, treasury teams are no longer just tracking balances. They’re responsible for protecting liquidity, managing financial risk, designing governance and internal controls, and ensuring the organization can operate and survive long-term.

Rohit Goel, Treasurer at Protocol Labs, the creators of Filecoin and IPFS, joins us to share practical frameworks and hard-earned lessons on web3 treasury management.

Why are so many Web3 projects with massive treasuries not doing active treasury management?

That’s the question we explore in this episode with Bo Zhang, COO at Function: a project building the rails that allow Bitcoin to actually function: liquid, composable, and yield-generating.

Together with Bo, we dive deep into the intersection of institutional trading & token management, treasury management, and working with market makers.

Bo is also one of the instructors of our upcoming course: the Crypto Treasury Management Academy launching October 29th, designed to help web3 finance professionals learn how to optimize, allocate, and protect their organization’s crypto treasury.

Deloitte has been on the front lines of digital assets, working with exchanges, custodians, stablecoin issuers, and enterprises to bring crypto into regulated finance.

In this episode, I’m joined by Jérémy Stevance, Manager on Deloitte France’s Digital Assets Team, who has spent the last four years building their crypto audit practice.

He’s worked with Web3 leaders like Circle, Binance, and Crypto.com, as well as traditional giants like LVMH and Société Générale.
