PODCAST · LAUNCHING END OF SEPTEMBER 2026

Conversations at the edge of quant and crypto

A new interview series from SQV3, sitting down with the quants, heads of quant desks, CTOs, and founders building the infrastructure that is bridging traditional finance and crypto markets, and doing the systematic work that makes it durable.

First episode
September 28th

Premise

Most crypto media covers price and narrative. This show covers the work: how systematic desks actually underwrite risk onchain, how tokenization projects earn institutional trust, and what it takes to run a quant seat when the market never closes. Each episode is one "relatively" long conversation (30 minutes to one hour), not a panel and not a pitch.

Guests are practitioners first: people who ran the backtest, signed the term sheet, or shipped the system now sitting between two industries that still speak different languages.

Who we host
Quants and heads of quant running systematic desks onchain and off
CTOs building the infrastructure institutions actually rely on
Founders of projects with real, measurable impact in crypto
Operators bridging TradFi and crypto in production, not on slides
