I've joined Ostium to lead marketing! There is a massive market opportunity ahead using blockchain rails to build better financial platforms for traders and investors globally I first met @kaledora in 2024 at Bangkok Devcon. In 2025, I visited the @ostium office where she looked me dead in the eyes and said she wanted to build a $10B company; I asked where can I send my (small) check. After a few months of learning more about the team and vision, I joined full time in March. Angel investor to employee arc activated What excited me most came down to the people, product, and vision: - The infrastructure was intentionally built to disrupt the opaque broker space and better serve digitally native traders around the world - Over 19m people trade CFDs, companies like IBKR are valued at $150B - market size is bigger than this channel - Passionate, intense co-founders that care a lot. War time mode CEO and CTO doesn't turn off. Yes, @contrarianmarco showed up in a suit in our first call - Getting to work with a cracked team of engineers, product developers, quants, and traders - supported by some of the best on the cap table - Top 20 revenue generating protocol in the whole industry - White glove customer service, a team focused on retention and users - @FlowTraderTM honestly needs to sleep more - Some more major product and partnership announcements in the works In the last two months I've been here, we've started running growth experiments across 8+ channels, brought on two more senior growth marketers, listed sixteen new assets, revamped the liquidity engine, and announced a data partnership with a major exchange. I'm having fun and there's a lot more work to do. Looking forward to this next chapter. If you're a user, trader, or growth marketer - dms are open
