Who exactly was JTX building for?
That was one of the questions Paul asked Lucas.
Was it mainly for people already deep into DeFi, or were they looking to bring users over from centralized exchanges?
At the time, Lucas said they were starting with Solana users because they already understood the ecosystem and could provide useful feedback as JTX was being rolled out.
But the longer-term plan was to target CEX users, followed by people outside crypto who trade stocks on platforms like Robinhood and Interactive Brokers.
Lucas also expected more tokenized equities to come on-chain, eventually making it possible to trade a much wider range of stocks on Solana.
Makes me remember what Finn once said:
"To me, solana is the epitome of internet capital markets."
