Final Settlement // Onramp's New Lending Product // Connect with Onramp // Connect with Early Riders // Arch Lending


Presented collaboratively by Early Riders & Onramp Media…


Final Settlement is a biweekly podcast that explores the breadth & depth of the bitcoin thesis—its underlying mechanics, ongoing development, real-world applications, & emergent role as sound capital. We’ll cover current events, macro trends, investment insights, as well as our latest research on bitcoin and adjacent industries; and spotlight guests—builders, business owners, investors—to discuss their learnings from operating (or investing) with bitcoin as their hurdle rate.


Hosted by Brian Cubellis (CSO at Onramp & Partner at Early Riders), Michael Tanguma (CEO at Onramp & Partner at Early Riders), & Liam Nelson (Partner at Early Riders), Final Settlement goes beyond the conventional view of bitcoin as mere “digital gold” and explores how this groundbreaking technology can benefit society by rearchitecting how value is transferred, verified, stored, and invested.
