The ninth episode of the BCR podcast brings Markus Levin from XYO Network (XYO-USD). Markus is the co-founder of that protocol. It serves as an Oracle for Web3 platforms and allows users to monetize their data through a variety of different engagements with the XYO platform. XYO was started by XY Labs and there's actually a second token that represents equity in XY Labs. That token is XYLB and is registered "security token" that trades on the tZERO platform.
