Notes from the show

A conversation with Tommy Johnson, founder of PsyFi and PsyOptions.

Tommy has been in the Solana ecosystem longer than most, having participated in one of the first global hackathons. From building one of the first options markets on Solana, to now launching their latest product: ArmadaFi.

The goal of the ArmadaFi platform is to allow people to create better tokenomics by providing the tools teams need to pull it off.

Having been through the ups and downs of the blockchain’s financial markets, and working in the DeFi world, Tommy shares his insights on how the journey was first hand. And why this has helped shaped his opinions on blockchain based financial markets.
