🕒 Duration: ~46 minutes
Episode Overview
In this episode, host Lindsey McConaghy chats with Mimi Vong, co-founder and CEO of Metafyed, about how her team is making real-world asset (RWA) tokenization practical and trustworthy.
Mimi shares her path from brand and e-commerce leadership to Web3, why she and her co-founder chose to tackle private credit first, and how Metafyed blends AI, compliance, and smart UX to turn illiquid assets into investable opportunities.
They discuss what it takes to earn investor trust, the role of regulation and licensed partners, and why community (and personal brand) still matter in an AI-powered, decentralized market.
They cover:
- Why trust, not just technology, is the key to RWA adoption
- Metafyed’s focus on 3–6 month private credit deals in Asia Pacific
- How the platform blends AI-assisted risk scoring with human review
- Expanding beyond EVM to Stellar for speed and lower fees
- Lessons from building: hiring for quality, personal brand, and staying close to users
- Misconceptions about tokenized assets (no “100x next week”)
- Regulation, compliance, and partnerships with licensed exchanges
