An OK Horse

The podcast explores several topics, beginning with a correction regarding Jamie Dimon's attendance at the JP Morgan Healthcare Conference and a discussion about JP Morgan being sued for debanking Donald Trump. Matt Levine introduces a story about a software developer named Steve Yegg and his open-source project Gastown, which led to the creation of a meme coin called "gas" that generated royalties for Yegg. They then discuss "moonshot" compensation packages for CEOs, inspired by Elon Musk's Tesla package, and an Ecuador study revealing that most companies with such packages underperformed the S&P. Finally, they analyze the New York Stock Exchange's plans to build a 24/7 trading platform based on blockchain and tokenized stocks and ETFs, aiming to cater to retail investors and provide real-time settlement.
