Onchain, Honestly!

In this episode, Iggy Ioppe, Chief Investment Officer at Theo, discusses how Theo is building a 3.0 generation of RWA products designed to make traditional financial markets usable onchain.

We cover why tokenization alone is not enough, how much of today’s financial infrastructure still runs on outdated rails, and why many early RWA products have struggled to move beyond tokenization theater into liquidity and DeFi integration.

We also discuss Theo’s current product set, including tokenized treasuries, tokenized gold, and a yield-bearing stablecoin powered by a gold carry strategy. Iggy explains Theo’s business model, retail accessibility, regulatory considerations, and the company’s broader vision of building an onchain wealth management platform available globally, 24/7, with no minimums.

What is Onchain, Honestly!?

Onchain, Honestly is a conversation with the operators actually building crypto companies.

Kaisa and Alenka sit down with founders and leaders to talk about what the pitch decks leave out: go-to-market, hiring, revenue, real traction, and the unglamorous mechanics of turning a protocol or product into a business.

No hype, no theater. Just honest conversations about what works, what doesn't, and what it actually takes to build onchain.
