In this episode of Trends with Benefits, Quile and A-Bomb chat with Shane Molidor, CEO of Forgd, to unpack what happens with token launches, including liquidity provisioning and everything in between.
Shane brings a decade of Web3 experience to the show, coming with an impressive stretch of work at IBM, Gemini, FBG Capital, and Ascendex. He even brings us up to speed on how his background in PoliSci and Gov’t at Princeton lead him into crypto following disillusionment in the consulting world.
This podcast brings a blunt and insightful look at market marking. We delve into why price action is so critical to survival for projects, and why most projects flounder without understanding the basics of tokenomics and market structure. Is it market manipulation or just an epic crusade of speed and competency that might even precede electricity? With Forgd, Shane tells us how they are building the rails and incubation process for next-gen token generation events, offering data-driven infrastructure to help both projects and investors succeed.
A-Bomb does well to get Shane to call out predatory practices in market making wherein the conversersation flows deep concepts like AI, the myth of organic liquidity, and the lack of crypto financial rating systems to guide new projects. The episode also touches on current events like the Circle IPO, Pump.Fun’s recent token announcement, and HyperLiquid’s watershed role in future token launches.
