The Money Layer of the Internet: Value, Culture & Conviction

“I spent years trained to look for what can go wrong. Crypto helped me imagine what could go right.”— Sergio Silva When the internet becomes a place you can own things, it changes how you see money, culture, and your own agency. In this episode of Object Subject Form, Sergio Silva joins Simon to explore the move from legacy finance to digital ownership, and what changes mentally when money becomes native to the internet. Sergio started his career at Goldman Sachs in 2009, then spent seven years leading the Latam Equity Sales team at Barclays before moving into digital assets.  Today he’s the founder of The Meebit Company, a venture-backed team stewarding and developing the Meebits IP. He previously led Web3 business development at Fireblocks and is a founding member of NeonDAO, an investment fund focused on building the open metaverse. Sergio breaks down digital assets in plain language, and explains how ownership changes the dynamics of online community compared to the platforms we’ve lived on for the past decade. Together, they explore market psychology, the behavioral side of investing, and practical principles like “pay yourself first,” alongside why Bitcoin’s scarcity matters and what makes it a store of value. Meebits becomes the case study for what ownership looks like in culture, and Sergio shares how he’s thinking about identity, community, and long-term IP. If you’ve been curious but skeptical, this episode is a clean entry point. – Connect with Sergio on X:  https://x.com/sergitosergito – Discover Meebits https://meebits.com/ – Follow Meebits on X: https://x.com/MeebitsNFTs – Connect with Simon on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simonclowes/ – Connect with Object Subject Form LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/objectsubjectform/ – Object Subject Form website: https://objectsubjectform.com/ – Object Subject Form on Instagram:  https://instagram.com/objectsubjectform
