Markets were hit with a surge of volatility after President Trump confirmed Kevin Warsh as his nominee for Fed Chair, raising fresh uncertainty around U.S. monetary policy. The VIX jumped as much as 13%, fueled further by shutdown risk and escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran. U.S. equities sold off sharply, led by Microsoft's worst session since 2020, wiping out more than $350 billion in market value. Meanwhile, Europe offered a rare bright spot as Eurozone GDP beat expectations, unemployment fell to a record low, and Spain led growth. Precious metals saw extreme reversals after a scorching run — silver plunged 15%, gold dropped as much as 8%, yet remained on track for its best monthly performance since 1982. In crypto, Bitcoin fell to $81,000, marking its worst streak of monthly losses since 2018, triggering $1.8B in liquidations. Binance announced it would convert $1B of stablecoins into BTC, offering a rare vote of confidence. A packed, volatile session — all the key facts, no spin.

The crew breaks down Superstate's massive $82M Series B for tokenization, the explosive rise of TradeXYZ's commodities trading hitting $1B+ volume, different tokenization models from "bootleg" to "back office," the ClawdBot AI phenomenon taking over coding, and how agent-based development is revolutionizing crypto software engineering. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week, Robert drops news about Superstate's massive $82 million Series B raise led by Bain Capital to bring Wall Street on-chain through tokenization. The crew dives deep into the explosive growth of Hip3 markets, particularly TradeXYZ's commodities trading that's hitting over $1 billion in daily volume as precious metals rip to all-time highs. They break down the different tokenization models emerging - from "bootleg" third-party approaches to "back office" settlement tools to issuer-led official tokenization. Then the conversation shifts to the ClawdBot phenomenon taking the internet by storm, exploring how AI agents are revolutionizing coding and what this means for the future of software engineering in crypto. From vibe coding to the complete transformation of how startups will be built, the hosts examine whether we're witnessing a fundamental shift in how technical work gets done. Show highlights

Today, I'm talking with Jeff Walker—the creator of Product Launch Formula® and the pioneer behind the modern launch model that's driven over $1B+ in documented sales—to break down why product launches fail… According to Jeff, it almost always comes down to one thing: the offer. Not only does Jeff break down where failed launches miss the mark, but we pull on that thread to explore how launches have evolved over the years. What no longer works? What role does AI play? And how can entrepreneurs adapt as buyers get smarter and attention gets harder to earn? Jeff's been doing online business for nearly 30 years, and he's watched tools, platforms, and tactics come and go—and still, he continues to produce results while others chase what's new. This episode is not only about launches, it's about what actually holds up when you're building a business over the long game.

Discover why the future of AI at work is more human than you think. Vinay Gidwaney, Chief Product Officer at OneDigital, shares how treating AI agents as talent rather than technology is changing AI adoption at work. He explains people-first change management, managing AI coworkers, building trust in human AI teams, and why real transformation depends on equity, access, and better decision-making.Key Moments:AI as a Coworker (01:45): Vinay introduces “Ben,” an AI benefits consultant at OneDigital, to illustrate a fundamentally different way of thinking about AI at work. Instead of positioning AI as automation or replacement, he explains how AI coworkers are designed to augment human expertise and support better decision-making.Hiring, Training, and Managing AI Like Employees (04:20): Vinay walks through OneDigital's intern-to-apprentice model for AI, including job descriptions, cultural fit, human managers, and ongoing supervision. He shows how applying HR rigor to AI builds trust, accountability, and clarity while helping employees see AI as part of the team, not a threat.Why AI Projects Fail: The Misguided Focus on Tools over Talent (10:45): Vinay argues that AI fails when treated like a traditional IT rollout. He emphasizes that AI adoption is fundamentally a people and change-management challenge, calling on HR leaders to lead the shift in how humans and AI work together.Recognizing the Limits and Risks of AI Automation (23:10): Vinay explains why fully autonomous AI agents often fall short in knowledge-based organizations. He cautions leaders to be skeptical of automation-first promises and introduces a more realistic model centered on cognition, human oversight, and thoughtful ROI evaluation.The Future of Work in an AI World (38:10):  Vinay reflects on his career and argues that software alone is no longer a defensible moat. He emphasizes speed, insight, services, and human judgment as the true sources of lasting value.Key Quotes:“ If you treat AI like any other technology that you've adopted in your company. It's not going to work out as well as you'd like… It's not a technology thing, it's a people thing.” - Vinay Gidwaney“ AI is a great way to spread human talent in your organization because they mirror what your humans are doing.” - Vinay Gidwaney“AI is talent and you have to treat AI in the same way that you treat the talent within your organization.” - Vinay GidwaneyMentionsHow to Train Your AI ‘Coworker'What are AI agent types?

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1254: GM takes a multibillion-dollar EV hit but says 2026 looks brighter, white-hat hackers cash in by cracking EV chargers and infotainment systems, and the airline industry gets its annual report cardGeneral Motors closed 2025 with a wider quarterly loss after taking billions in EV and China-related charges. But underneath the headline number, core profits held up, cash flowed in North America, and GM is signaling confidence that 2026 will be stronger.GM reported a $3.3B Q4 net loss after booking more than $7B in charges, largely tied to cutting back EV production and restructuring its China joint venture.Adjusted EBIT rose 13% in the quarter, and GM earned $10.5B in North America for the year, resulting in profit-sharing bonuses up to $10,500 for UAW workers.EV losses are projected to improve by $1B–$1.5B in 2026CEO Mary Barra told shareholders the company sees stability ahead: “We expect the U.S. new vehicle market will continue to be resilient… 2026 should be an even better year for GM.”From EV chargers to infotainment systems, the Pwn2Own Automotive 2025 competition exposed how much of the industry is still very hackable.Hackers earned $886,250 uncovering nearly 50 zero-day vulnerabilities in EV chargers, infotainment systems, and automotive softwareInfotainment systems from Kenwood, Sony, and Alpine were successfully exploited, along with chargers from ChargePoint, Autel, Ubiquiti, Phoenix Contact, WolfBox, and Tesla.Tesla Wall Connectors alone accounted for more than $140,000 in payouts, while the overall winning team, Summoning Team, took home $222,250.Notably, no one attempted to hack a Tesla vehicle, despite a car and large cash prizes on the table.If 2025 felt like a rough year to fly, you're not wrong. But turbulence hit everyone. What separated airlines wasn't the chaos—it was execution. The Wall Street Journal's airline scorecard crowns a new winner and reshuffles the pecking order.(Worst → Best): Frontier (T-last), American (T-last), JetBlue (7th), United (6th), Spirit (5th), Alaska (4th), Delta (3rd), Allegiant (2nd), Southwest (1st).Southwest wins for the first time since 2020, ending Delta's four-year streak with strong all-around operations and industry-low complaints.Explaining Southwest's edge, COO Andrew Watterson said the airline avoids the “easy” option when things go sideways: “It's very easy to cancel a flight. That's the path of least resistance.”This episode of the Automotive State of the Union is brought to you by Amazon Autos: Meet customers where tJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this episode of The Digital Slice Podcast, Brad Friedman and Bill is a veteran Air Force counterespionage officer who became marketing expert who's been in the lead gen game since before social media existed! As the creator of Kaleidico and Bill Rice Strategy Group, he's produced over 500,000 leads per year for clients, creating and exiting multiple successful companies along the way, while producing more than 9 figures for clients. But Bill's not your average marketing specialist. His transition from developing information warfare centers in the Air Force to launching one of the first mortgage lead management systems gives him a distinctive perspective on consumer psychology and company scaling. Through economic downturns and the emergence of AI, Bill has continuously stayed ahead of the curve, even recently selling his own agency for a 7-figure exit! (Here's something cool: Bill was also a member of the founding team of the first internet bank back in 2000 and scaled it to $1B in home equity loans, eventually exiting to a PE firm). Today, he's on a journey to share his strategies for developing sustainable demand-generation programs that drive real outcomes. From producing content that performs to developing automated lead systems that grow, he brings actionable strategies that get results. The Digital Slice Podcast is brought to you by Magai.

In conversation with our very own Andreas Munk Holm, Christian Hernandez, founding GP of 2150 and Jan Hofmann of the Viessmann Generations Group, look at how climate investing is moving from narrative to industrial reality, where cities, energy, materials, and manufacturing become venture-scale markets, and execution matters more than slogans.Today, 2150 officially launched its €210M second fund, bringing total assets under management to €500M and reinforcing its position as one of Europe's leading investors backing the technologies shaping future cities and industrial systems.Fund II reflects growing institutional conviction in 2150's thesis: that cities generate around 80% of global prosperity, and that the next wave of venture-scale outcomes will come from making urbanisation and industrial activity sustainable at planetary scale.

One billion dollars. That's what today's guest built — after being rejected on Shark Tank, nearly going bankrupt multiple times, and spending millions before making a single sale. In this video, Jamie Siminoff, founder of Ring, breaks down the real story behind building one of the most successful hardware startups of all time and selling it to Amazon for over $1B. What you'll learn in this video: • How to validate and pre-sell a hardware product before manufacturing • The real cost of R&D when building a physical product business • How Shark Tank rejection can accelerate growth, not kill it • Why domain names matter more than founders realise • How Ring survived massive supplier debt and cash pressure • The risks of scaling too fast and hiring ahead of systems • How constraint and pressure forced breakthrough growth • What founders get wrong about raising capital vs bootstrapping By the end of this video, you'll understand what it truly takes to build a billion-dollar hardware or eCommerce company — and how to avoid the mistakes that silently kill most physical product startups. If you're serious about building something real, durable, and valuable, this episode will change how you think about product, money, and scale.

From Trump's blistering Davos speech to an EU emergency meeting, the global order is shifting fast

Every year many financial advisors transition their practice from one wirehouse to another.Provided they've done their research and concluded that such a path was best for them, their practice, and their clients, there is nothing wrong with that.All too often though, that research does not include understanding all potential options.Thus, they end up making a less than informed decision about something that will impact the balance of their career.In this episode of the Transition To RIA question & answer series (#140) I work to expand such knowledge by explaining how transitioning to another wirehouse compares to transitioning to the RIA model.Come take a listen!P.S. Prefer video? You can find this entire series in video format on Youtube. Search for the TRANSITION TO RIA channel.Show notes: https://TransitionToRIA.com/how-does-transitioning-to-another-wirehouse-compare-to-transitioning-to-the-ria-model/About Host: Brad Wales is the founder of Transition To RIA, where he helps financial advisors between $50M and $1B understand everything there is to know about WHY and HOW to transition their practice to the Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) model. Brad has 20+ years of industry experience, including direct RIA related roles in Compliance, Finance and Business Development. He has an MBA and has held the 4, 7, 24, 63 & 65 licenses. The Transition To RIA website (TransitionToRIA.com) has a large catalog of free videos, articles, whitepapers, as well as other resources to help advisors understand the RIA model and how it would apply to their unique circumstances.

If your brand feels too small to matter, this blueprint shows why that might be your unfair advantage.In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Mark Rampolla, Co-Founder and Co-Managing Partner at GroundForce Capital, who unpacks how a niche idea became a global category. Mark shares the strategy that took ZICO from yoga studios in NYC to nationwide shelves, the discipline behind constant pitching and fundraising, and why exits aren't the finish line. He also discusses his new book on putting freedom first, and his work at Ground Force Capital (backer of brands like Liquid Death and Beyond Meat), helping founders scale both their companies and their lives.Key Takeaways:→ Why “inch-wide, mile-deep” focus beats broad launches for breakthrough CPG growth.→ How pairing a product with a specific usage occasion (post-hot yoga) created early traction.→ The surprising first hurdle: taste—and how “preach to the choir” accelerates momentum.→ Fundraising reality: why you either get profitable fast or get great at raising—continuously.→ The nine-year “overnight success” mindset and the decade-long horizon most wins require.Mark Rampolla is Co-Founder and Co-Managing Partner at GroundForce Capital (GFC), where he works closely with founders and teams to build impactful businesses. He has represented GFC on the boards of leading companies, including Vive Organic, OWYN, Liquid Death, Kinder Farms, Flying Embers, and ZICO Rising. Prior to GFC, Mark founded and served as CEO of ZICO Beverages, pioneering the coconut water category and growing the brand into a global leader before its acquisition by The Coca-Cola Company in 2013. Earlier in his career, he held senior management roles at International Paper, overseeing joint ventures across Latin America and the Caribbean. A Peace Corps alum, Mark has advised more than 100 CEOs, raised over $1B, and invested in 40+ social-impact startups. He is the author of High-Hanging Fruit and holds degrees from Marquette University and Duke University.Connect With Mark:Website: https://www.markrampolla.co/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markrampolla/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marksrampolla/

Bitcoin holds near $90,000 amid $1B+ in liquidations and extreme fear sentiment. We discuss capitulation among crypto natives, price resilience in a tight range, new money inflows, Bitcoin dominance, and why precious metals are outperforming.

It's all about bullying this week. No, not the school-type (although eerily similar) but the bullying that goes on in politics, specifically as related to President Trump.  First, the Board of Peace is underway, with a cool $1B price tag to join, and of course, YOU BETTER JOIN or you may get tarriffed to oblivian! Then we delve into the Greenland saga, where more and more countries are lining up against the Trump Administration. Also, Iran is still roiling, but will Trump finally make the stand he keeps threating?   Additionally, new flight fears have been unlocked (and they're not what you're thinking) and some wild animal stories from across the globe.   ________ **  Skip the airport and get away to a KOSHER luxury hotel, with food, mikvah, shul and more!

The CEO of e.l.f. Beauty says charging $38 for lip oil is "immoral."In this fun exclusive interview, e.l.f.'s CEO Tarang Amin explains why he thinks big profit margins are unethical and how his biz creates "dupes" better than the lux originals… for a fraction of the price.So we glammed up with Tarang to break down the economics of the $3 lipstick, how e.l.f. legally copies rivals like Dior, and why he shares the company's "nuclear codes" with every employee.Of course we got all the details on his acquisition of Hailey Bieber's Rhode Skin for $1B, the fastest-growing beauty brand in America (spoiler: It all went down over a dinner in LA).And there's even an investment angle: Wall Street fell in love with $ELF stock as it rose 800% in just a few years.
