<p>Today's guest is Ivan Kozlov, co-founder of Resolv Protocol. We discuss how Resolv has been successful with tranching, their yield-bearing stablecoin architecture, and why most TradFi instruments fail when transplanted to crypto. Ivan shares his contrarian take on distribution strategies and his ambitious vision to "stablecoinize" hedge funds, credit funds, and eventually everything.</p><p><strong>GUEST LINKS:</strong></p><p>* Ivan Kozlov: <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/Iv4n_Ko">https://x.com/Iv4n_Ko</a></p><p>* Resolv Protocol: <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/ResolvLabs">https://x.com/ResolvLabs</a></p><p>* Resolv Journey (Roadmap): <a target="_blank" href="https://resolv.xyz/journey">https://resolv.xyz/journey</a></p><p><strong>HOST LINKS:</strong></p><p>* Ryan Rodenbaugh: <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/ryanrodenbaugh">https://twitter.com/ryanrodenbaugh</a></p><p>* Vaults.fyi: https://twitter.com/vaultsfyi</p><p>* Wallfacer: https://x.com/wallfacerlabs</p><p><strong>SUBSCRIBE SECTION:</strong> <strong>Subscribe to Wallfacer Podcast and share with friends:</strong></p><p>* <a target="_blank" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wallfacer-podcast/id1709530326">Apple</a> </p><p>* <a target="_blank" href="https://open.spotify.com/show/2PNkM1JiIZCvvPLfdRYrb4">Spotify</a> </p><p>* YouTube: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/@WallfacerLabs">https://www.youtube.com/@WallfacerLabs</a></p><p>* Substack: <a target="_blank" href="https://wallfacerlabs.substack.com/s/podcast">https://wallfacerlabs.substack.com/s/podcast</a></p><p><strong>TIMESTAMPS:</strong> </p><p><strong>[00:00] Background & Journey from Nuclear Physics to DeFi</strong> </p><p><strong>[03:15] Why TradFi Products Fail in Crypto</strong> </p><p><strong>[09:39] What is Resolv Protocol</strong> </p><p><strong>[14:56] Tranching Mechanics & Risk Segregation</strong> </p><p><strong>[24:27] Market Segmentation & Risk Profiles</strong> </p><p><strong>[29:53] Distribution Strategy & Go-to-Market</strong> </p><p><strong>[40:01] Multi-Chain Expansion Philosophy</strong> </p><p><strong>[48:17] Future Yield Sources Beyond Delta Neutral</strong> </p><p><strong>[54:26] Five-Year Vision & Market Size Predictions</strong></p><p></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
