Episode notes

Robert Materazzi is a US Marine who eagerly attacks big problems, as evidenced by his time at PWC and at Lukka. Robert discovered crypto and believed in the sector's potential, but determined there to be a missing link in crypto markets with regard to fair market price evaluations. While it may sound simple to determine the price of a crypto asset, it is quite the opposite - and over 160 crypto firms have leveraged Lukka’s products to accurately price the assets that they own for guaranteed accuracy. When billions are at stake, every penny and dollar matters.

Scott Melker and Robert Materazzi further discuss, working with the S&P, providing the most precise indices, how a fair market value is determined, avoiding artificial volume, catering to 160 crypto funds, the accessibility and liquidity of tokenized assets, staying compliant with regulators, crypto tax audits, Lukka Prime, Series C investments, Bitcoin as a gateway drug and more.
