Ondo Finance co-founder and CEO Nathan Allman died suddenly this summer at 32, leaving the real-world-asset tokenizer with zero sitting directors and two people claiming to run the company: ousted president Ian De Bode, and Allman’s mother Kathleen, acting for his estate.
Katherine Kirkpatrick Bos, Jessi Brooks, and Vy Le use the fight to unpack a problem that has nothing to do with crypto and everything to do with it: what happens when a fast-growing company never writes down a succession plan.
They also cover the White House’s new frontier AI oversight framework, which officials confirm exists but will not publish, a proposed FDIC and OCC certification that would let a fintech satisfy every bank’s diligence questions at once, and the CLARITY Act’s newly scheduled September 15 cloture vote, squeezed into a narrow window before midterms.
Vy Le asks the harder question underneath all three stories: can boundaries this important really be left voluntary?
