Fact

Collectibles platforms are the Wild West with no insider-trading rules

Otis wants to be the 'NASDAQ of everything,' but unlike NASDAQ these fractional-collectibles markets have no insider-trading or manipulation regulations yet, which is exactly where the arbitrage opportunity lives.

“So actually, Otis, their tagline is they want to be the NASDAQ of everything. However, unlike the NASDAQ, NASDAQ has all these regulations that you can't do insider trading and stuff. Here, it's the Wild West, like anything goes. There's no insider trading rules or whatever.”

Fact

NASDAQ licenses its exchange tech to run stock markets in 40+ countries

Shaan recounts learning that NASDAQ doesn't just run a US exchange; it licenses its full stock-exchange technology stack to Sweden and dozens of other countries, generating around a billion a year with extreme pricing power and near-zero switching.

“They're like, yeah, we power the stock exchange in Sweden and 40 other countries and we make, you know, $1 billion a year or whatever the number is. Just licensing our stock exchange technology to other countries for their stock exchange.”
