Arthur Hayes & Tom Lee map the new crypto arms race—Hyperliquid vs Aster, Plasma's stablecoin rails, and ETH's DAT-fueled supercycle. 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. Live at Token2049 Singapore, we're joined by Arthur Hayes (Maelstrom) and Tom Lee (Bitmine) to map two battles shaping the next cycle: the Perp DEX war—Hyperliquid's moat vs. CZ-linked Aster, zero-fee experiments like Lighter, and whether ~$500M/year token unlocks can stay “bullish”—and the race to own stablecoin rails, from Tether-affiliated Plasma's zero-fee USDT chain to distribution plays like Tempo and Codex. We dig into DATs, mNAV compression, and Tom's “ETH supercycle,” plus prediction markets (Polymarket vs. Kalshi) crossing into the mainstream and a surprise Zcash revival. If crypto's future is being decided in trading venues and in money itself, this is where the battle lines get drawn.  Show highlights

This Week: As the right wing war on higher education continues a climate of “fear and hopelessness” sets in among the ranks of college faculty across the former confederate states in particular. One in four scholars in the south report applying to a job in another state, primarily states in the north and west where the restrictions on research, attacks on academic freedom, and repression of marginalized groups is at least not being exacerbated at the state level.  Also, we do a round up of fascist shenanigans, including two good stories for a change. A federal judge orders the reinstatement of $500M in research funding to UCLA, noting the Trump administration's actions are likely “arbitrary and capricious.” New laws in CA require federal immigration officials to have a judicial warrant or court order to enter schools and hospitals, and have made it illegal for law enforcement to wear masks. Lastly, Trump cuts $24M in funding to NYC, Chicago, and Fairfax Co schools as punishment for policies that allow students to use bathrooms that align with their gender identity, further weaponizing Title IX and the civil rights infrastructure of the USDOE.  Manuel and Jeff discuss!MAXIMUM WOKENESS ALERT -- get your All of the Above swag, including your own “Teach the Truth” shirt!

NBC pushes a fake report that ICE agents detained a 5 year old girl with autism to get her illegal alien father to surrender from his home, not only purposefully distorting the story but NOT reporting the father has a history of domestic abuse and strangulation.

The media attacks President Trump's Tylenol and autism link but forget their own reporting dating back nearly 10 years. Schumer may hold the government hostage is he doesn't get free healthcare for illegals and $500M for NPR.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang descended on the United Kingdom this week, armed with a pledge to invest $2.6 billion to supercharge the country's AI startup ecosystem. Wayve, the U.K.-based self-driving tech startup, could be one of those to receive funds from Nvidia's AI investment commitment. Also, U.K.-based fintech Tide has entered the unicorn club with a fresh funding of $120 million led by TPG, as the startup now serves over 1.6 million micro and small enterprises globally — with more than half of them based in India, the company's largest and fastest-growing market. The new round — a mix of primary and secondary investment, though the startup declined to confirm the exact split — values the eight-year-old startup at $1.5 billion.

LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ In this episode of Dropping Bombs, I sit down with legacy-level developer Karl Gorman, a former corporate finance exec who walked away from a 7-figure salary to tackle America's housing crisis head-on—and make bank while doing it. From turning vacant city lots into modular homes in 90 days to getting mayors to hand over land for FREE, Karl's cracked the code on affordable housing at scale—dropping $500M in construction across Cleveland, Detroit, and Sacramento, all while giving working-class families the shot at homeownership with $0 down and 12% equity built-in. Karl breaks down how he's shrinking the wealth gap—like Trump's mastery of accelerated depreciation to stack billions while everyday folks get locked out—why he tells hedge funds to kick rocks, and how he's paying investors double-digit returns with no risk of lawsuits, fires, or foreclosures—because he structured the entire fund so they only collect the cash, not the chaos. Plus: why realtors stay broke, how he's cloning himself to build in every city, and why corporate America should be worried—because this isn't just business, it's a movement. Think you know real estate? Karl's blueprint rewrites the rules.

We take a high-level look at where the next major opportunities in crypto may emerge, connecting developments in $NAT with broader market narratives. We begin with a deep dive into $NAT's latest progress and why its evolving role as a Bitcoin-native secondary subsidy could address long-term network sustainability—placing it in the same early-stage category as other innovations once dismissed before gaining mainstream adoption. We then shift to the surging ZORA ecosystem, now nearing a $500M market cap, and examine its structural parallels to earlier BASE projects like Virtuals. This leads us to $DOCKER—a $3M market cap asset designed to capture ecosystem upside through buyback-driven flywheels—mirroring the path that propelled $VADER to $100M+. By unpacking the economic models, token mechanics, and adoption curves at play, we highlight why these assets may offer asymmetric potential in the current market. Whether your interest lies in Bitcoin's evolving economic design or identifying high-conviction bets before they go mainstream, this discussion distills the signals from the noise to give you a clear strategic edge. Topics: First up, look at where the next major opportunities in crypto may emerge, connecting developments in $NAT with broader market narratives.

Coffee Talk. No Pistachio? – The hosts revisit Taste Radio's Chicago meetup and preview upcoming events in San Diego and San Francisco, reminding listeners how easy it is to register.

In this Bite-sized Screw It Just DO It episode, I revisit my conversation with Richard Reed, co-founder of Innocent Drinks, who sold the smoothie brand to Coca-Cola for over $500 million. Richard shares how Innocent started as three friends selling smoothies at festivals and grew into Europe's leading healthy drinks company without a master plan or exit strategy. He explains why mission and friendship mattered more than chasing returns, how resilience carried them through setbacks like 2008, and why Jam Jar Investments was launched just 48 hours after selling Innocent to support the next wave of UK founders. This episode is a direct look at scaling a brand, surviving challenges, and giving back to the startup ecosystem.Key Takeaways:Growth often comes without a master plan—execution matters more than theoryMission-driven businesses outlast founder-driven onesResilience is key, even when setbacks wipe out years of progressFriendship and shared values can sustain a founding team for the long haulSupporting other entrepreneurs is as important as building your own success

Although his comedic talents span the range of current events across the political spectrum, Brent Pella hit the cultural version of a nuclear reactor when he started writing jokes about new age spirituality, conspiracy theories, and human optimization. His videos have gained 500M+ views online, and he was recently named a "Creator to Watch" by the New York Comedy Festival. His debut comedy special, “Conscious Bro” is live on YouTube now. In this conversation, we dove into Brent's past. He told the story of his first open mic, rapping at UC Santa Barbara, and why, despite the devil on his shoulder, he feels politically homeless.

Today's show:In this TWiST 500 double feature, Alex sits down with two breakout founders: Chalk's Marc Freed-Finnegan & Tollbit's Toshit Panigrahi!First, Chalk's CEO Marc Freed-Finnegan is tackling one of AI's biggest bottlenecks—data freshness. Instead of relying on stale batch jobs, Chalk delivers real-time pipelines for inference compute, automatically transpiling Python into C++/Rust so it can run blazing fast in production. Investors are calling it the ‘next Databricks'—and after hearing this convo, you'll see why.Then, Tollbit's CEO Toshit Panigrahi returns after raising a $24M Series A and signing up 1,400+ publishers. With RAG traffic exploding and robots.txt losing its teeth, their ‘bot paywall' could reshape how AI agents pay for the content they consume.
