Episode 7 of Professional Punters is live, with @SebastianGallic, founder of @IndexifyApp. This episode has a slightly different format than our typical episodes: Sebastian interviews me about Freeport for the first half, then we turn the microphones around and I interview him. Sebastian began his career at Fitch Ratings, working on aircraft leases and other asset-backed securities. He later joined M3 Partners, where his creditor-side work covered Celsius, BlockFi, Voyager, and FTX. He now builds Indexify, a self-custodial social-investing platform where creators build and rebalance onchain portfolios called Stacks. At its core, the conversation compares the crypto rails for investing and trading: Indexify focuses on spot ownership and portfolio construction, while Freeport focuses on perpetual futures, leverage, and 24/7 trading. Among other topics, we cover: How perpetual futures actually work Finding signals in insider and hedge-fund filings Deploying markets through Hyperliquid Bringing pre-IPO exposure to everyday investors How GPU financing creates onchain yield The structures and risks behind pre-IPO tokens How decentralized margin loans work The different products and users behind investing versus trading Watch on YouTube: Listen on Spotify: Listen on Apple Podcasts: Full writeup on Substack:
