Sebastien Davies
Elara gives users a dollar denominated asset and a staked version that earns yield from professionally managed, market neutral strategies. Sebastien is a partner at Primal Capital, and his read on what institutions actually need from this market is worth your time.
Right now the focus is scaling Elara's deposits, strengthening the product and risk infrastructure, and delivering sustainable net yield.
Over the next 6 to 12 months, the team is building toward a broader treasury platform that fintechs and neobanks can plug into.
Most people think institutions need a crypto product. What they actually need is better financial infrastructure, with the crypto rails largely invisible underneath.
Fintech and neobank operators, institutional allocators, and infrastructure partners who are serious about putting digital assets into production.
Designing institutional digital asset products, translating complex market structure into a clear strategy, and connecting product, capital, and distribution.
Outside work: reading, writing, running, and exploring new places with his wife.
