About Guests
Joel Gheen began his career as a financier and developed Space Protocol in 2018 with Raghav Mathur, after a multitude of experiences with startups and financial consulting. They birthed Space Protocol from a place of frustration in the space and wanted to move to blockchain to provide a novel decentralized protocol by which revenue streams of hard assets can be bound into utility NFTs which are then fractionalized and aggregated into a stable store of value.
