How Ostium Aims To Make Every Global Market Tradable Onchain

As we wrap up the final episode of The Edge Podcast this year, we’re doing what we love most—exploring new DeFi with one of the more ambitious projects we’ve been tracking in the perps sector, Ostium.

While 2025 has been a year defined by institutional liquidity onchain and the rise of RWAs, there’s still a massive gap between the assets people trade in traditional markets and what exists in DeFi today.

Ostium is one of the teams aiming to change that!

In this episode, we sit down with the CoFounder and CEO, Kaledora Fontana Kiernan-Linn, to unpack how Ostium is building a next-gen trading platform on Arbitrum, bringing deeper liquidity onchain to commodities, equities, indices, and RWAs, while pursuing a long term vision to disrupt CFD markets access through DeFi.

Have a safe and Happy New Year! 🎉🎆
