Podcasts about FTX

When the cryptocurrency exchange FTX imploded, customers around the world lost access to their money. Founder Sam Bankman-Fried was convicted of fraud and sent to prison. But the story didn't stop there. For the past three and a half years, FTX has been in bankruptcy, a legal process that determines who will be paid back and how much they'll receive. From the start, some customers and FTX insiders have criticized the bankruptcy. Legal experts and a bipartisan group of senators objected to the law firm tapped to run it, raising concerns about potential conflicts of interest. But the bankruptcy court and an independent examiner signed off on the firm's appointment as lead counsel.  Customers are now receiving compensation for their losses, but many say they're being shortchanged. Instead of being paid in cryptocurrency, they're receiving cash, with their claims pegged to the value of crypto when the market was at an all-time low. “Under this plan, my contractual rights and my ownership rights have been trampled; my property rights have been disregarded,” says Lidia Favario, an Italian artist who argued in court that customers should be repaid in crypto, not cash.This week on Reveal, in the second part of our series on FTX, we examine the decisions that shaped what's become one of the most expensive bankruptcies in US history. Read the FTX bankruptcy estate's on-the-record statement to Reveal. This is an update of a show that originally aired in October 2025.

CoinDesk's The Policy Protocol host Rebecca Rettig is joined by guest co-host Ryan VanGrack, Coinbase's newly appointed Vice Chairman, to unpack the week's biggest crypto policy developments. They begin with the escalating legal standoff between Kalshi, the state of Michigan and the CFTC, before turning to the U.S.-U.K.'s new joint recommendations on stablecoins and tokenized assets. On the one-year anniversary of the GENIUS Act, Rebecca sits down with the bill's architect, Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.), who reflects on the legislative battle to pass the landmark stablecoin law and explains why the CLARITY Act now faces an even more challenging political path. The episode closes with Hero of the Week Harry Jung, Patrick Whitt's deputy who is stepping into a leading White House role on crypto policy while Whitt takes military leave, and Zero of the Week Sam Bankman-Fried, after the Senate unanimously passed a resolution opposing any pardon or commutation for the former FTX founder. - This episode is brought to you by RealFi, a smarter stablecoin, backed by real-world assets.

The Senate votes unanimously against any SBF pardon. All 100 U.S. senators agreed that FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried should never receive a pardon or commutation. President Trump has already pardoned Binance founder CZ and Silk Road creator Ross Ulbricht, but the Senate is drawing a clear line at SBF.

Bloomberg reported that Anthropic is planning investor meetings as a potential IPO approaches. Anthropic, founded in 2021 by Dario and Daniela Amodei, develops the Claude model family and emphasizes AI safety. Amazon completed a commitment of up to $4 billion in 2024, and Google was reported in 2023 to be investing up to $2 billion, alongside earlier funding from Spark Capital and from FTX and Alameda Research in 2022. Claude is distributed through Anthropic's API, Amazon Bedrock, and Google Cloud's Vertex AI, tying workloads to hyperscale infrastructure. The company established a Long-Term Benefit Trust in 2023 to embed safety in governance. Investor meetings would address valuation, operating metrics, and concentration risks as the IPO window improves after listings by Reddit, Astera Labs, and Rubrik.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

Sam Bankman-Fried was once called the “crypto king.” But in November 2022, his company, FTX, imploded within a matter of days. All around the world, customers of the cryptocurrency exchange were suddenly cut off from their money. “I tried to withdraw an amount, you know, and it would spin and say, your, your withdrawal is pending,” says Tareq Morad, an investor from Canada. “I remember myself doing that around 7, 8 o'clock at night, checking back, going to look: Okay, did it go through? Did it go through? No. No. No.”Meanwhile, inside the company, employees were panicking. “All that we were told was there's been a run on the bank and, somehow, money is missing and we don't know who to trust,” remembers Caroline Papadopoulos, part of FTX's accounting leadership at the time. This week on Reveal, through prison interviews with Bankman-Fried, his parents, FTX insiders, and customers, we take you through the frantic week of FTX's collapse and the controversial and less well-known bankruptcy that followed. At a cost of nearly $1 billion, it has become one of the most expensive in history. Read the FTX bankruptcy estate's on-the-record statement to Reveal. This is an update of a show that originally aired in September 2025.  Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/weekly Connect with us onBluesky, Facebook and Instagram Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Strong professional judgement is often the difference between identifying risk early and recognising failure only in hindsight.  This episode explores what major market collapses can teach auditors, accountants and finance professionals about maintaining trust, independence and scepticism when risks are evolving rapidly.  With Paul Munter, formerly of the US Security and Exchange Commission (SEC), in the studio – along with CPA Australia's audit and assurance lead Tiffany Tan – this episode offers deep insight into this important issue.  Drawing on lessons from Enron, WorldCom, the global financial crisis and FTX, the discussion examines how reporting narratives can gradually drift from economic reality and why strong professional judgement remains critical.  Key takeaways:  What past market failures reveal about weaknesses in reporting, auditing and oversight  Why audit quality, independence and professional scepticism remain essential  How emerging risks such as crypto and private capital challenge traditional approaches  The importance of asking better questions and challenging explanations that do not make sense  Why the profession needs to do a better job explaining the value and career opportunities within audit  How auditors contribute to market confidence, capital formation and investor trust  Host: Elinor Kasapidis, chief of policy standards and external affairs, CPA Australia.  Guests:  Paul Munter served as the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) chief accountant (2021-25) and its deputy chief accountant (2019-21). He had previously retired from KPMG where he was the lead technical partner for its international accounting and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) activities. He is a CPA in Colorado, New York, and Florida.  Tiffany Tan, audit and assurance lead, CPA Australia.  You can learn more about Paul Munter here.  CPA Australia also has some useful audit and assurance tools and resources.  Loving this episode?  Listen to more With Interest episodes and other CPA Australia podcasts on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/@CPAaustralia/podcasts  And don't forget to click subscribe to the channel for a wide range of content that will help your career.  CPA Australia publishes four podcasts, providing commentary and thought leadership across business, finance and accounting:  With Interest https://www.cpaaustralia.com.au/tools-and-resources/podcasts/with-interest  INTHEBLACK https://www.cpaaustralia.com.au/tools-and-resources/podcasts/intheblack  INTHEBLACK Out Loud https://www.cpaaustralia.com.au/tools-and-resources/podcasts/intheblack-outloud  Excel Tips https://www.cpaaustralia.com.au/tools-and-resources/podcasts/excel-tips  Search for them in your podcast platform.

Their research helped the SEC approve the Bitcoin ETFs. Their dashboards helped expose the FTX collapse before anyone else knew what was happening. In this interview, Adrian Fritz and Eli Ndinga from 21Shares break down why institutional allocation to crypto is still practically zero despite all the headlines, how they decide which products to bring to market before the narrative even exists, and why the old altcoin seasons where everything pumps together are never coming back. They explain how blockchains are about to become invisible infrastructure that your mother uses without knowing it, where the next mini bubbles will form in privacy and AI, and why 99% of crypto assets won't exist in a few years — but the 1% that survive will be the Googles and Facebooks of the next era.

Bitcoin rebounds after hitting a fresh 21-month low, below its 200-week moving average — but underneath the panic, whales just made THE LARGEST single Bitcoin accumulation spike EVER recorded on chain: 270,000 BTC scooped up at $59K, bigger than the COVID bottom (150K) and the FTX bottom. Cantor Fitzgerald says the bear market is entering its FINAL stretch, projecting a late October bottom based on historical cycles. Metaplanet added 2,823 BTC to push its stack past 43,000. Robinhood just went 24/5 as DTCC's new 24x5 clearing goes live — Wall Street is officially catching up to crypto's 24/7 reality. Meanwhile the biggest stablecoin launch in history just dropped: 140+ giants — BlackRock, Visa, Stripe, Mastercard, Amex, Google, Coinbase, Ripple — launched Open USD (OUSD), a USDC killer that crashed Circle stock 15% overnight. Add June's brutal Marubozu candle (worst month since June 2022), Fed rate HIKE fears from Kevin Warsh, Strategy's $1.25 BILLION sell authorization, and Trump's disclosed $1.4 BILLION in 2025 crypto earnings blowing up Clarity Act ethics negotiations — and we break down whether smart money just called the bottom, or if this is a whale trap before the next leg lower.

Vinny Lingham, co-founder of Praxos Capital, tweeted in October 2024 that Michael Saylor would do more damage to Bitcoin than FTX. On Unchained, he argues the collapse was always predictable, and that this is not a Ponzi but what he calls a 'Saylor scheme.' Lingham maps how the empire breaks once MSTR trades at a discount to mNAV, why the 32-Bitcoin sale and the $1.5 billion buyback of 2029 converts blew Saylor's runway, and why $6.7 billion in convertible notes raises default risk by 2028. He also weighs a Soros-style attack theory and the switch to bimonthly dividends. His fix is the one thing Saylor won't do: stop buying, stop diluting, wait it out. The question is who removes the biggest buyer of Bitcoin, him or the market.

Join Alex Tapscott as he decodes the world of crypto with special guest Nom, Core Contributor of BONK. Listen in as they discuss how BONK emerged from the depths of the post-FTX bear market to help revive energy and community across Solana, why culture and fun still matter in an industry increasingly focused on institutions, ETFs, and regulation, and how meme coins can become lasting consumer brands when paired with real products, utility, and community participation. Nom also shares how BONK's early airdrop strategy targeted Solana power users, why crypto's next wave may depend on making apps both useful and weird again, and how BONK is expanding into RWAs, prediction markets, AI, and neo-banking.

Ten years later, it's become a network of podcasts and newsletters. Haseeb Qureshi of one of most beloved podcasts on the network, The Chopping Block, chats with Laura about everything from its origins to biggest regrets to her interview style and more.  Plus, she reveals the one regret she has over a question she never got to ask Sam Bankman-Fried after the collapse of FTX. Haseeb, managing partner at Dragonfly and an effective altruist himself, traces whether EA's moral framework enabled SBF's fraud, or whether SBF simply had ordinary delusions of grandeur.  The conversation also moves through Charles Hoskinson's disputed PhD claims, the Brian Armstrong interview that never happened, and Laura's emerging conviction that ten years of institutional disillusionment may be pushing her away from the neutrality that built her career.

Kevin Warsh held rates steady but surprised markets by signaling that rate hikes remain on the table, with nine of eighteen Fed officials now projecting at least one increase this year as inflation concerns persist. Matt also examines why Strategy's preferred stock falling below its target value could create challenges for the company's Bitcoin acquisition machine, and why a stronger U.S. dollar continues acting as a headwind for crypto markets.The episode also covers Hive's $220 million AI infrastructure deal, Cathie Wood buying Coinbase while selling Robinhood, new efforts by gambling and tribal groups to limit prediction markets, and the latest developments in the ongoing FTX political finance cases.

 EPISODE DESCRIPTION I sat down with Brian J. Esposito, CEO of Diamond Lake Minerals (DLMI) and a 25-year entrepreneur who has built over 115 companies across 25 industries. Brian has been in regulated, compliant tokenization for over 13 years , long before it was cool , and in this episode he breaks down exactly why most RWA projects are getting it wrong, why owning the underlying asset is non-negotiable, and how Diamond Lake is structured like a modern General Electric to bring fractional ownership of commercial real estate, music catalogs, hotels, and more to millions of people who have never had access to these kinds of assets before. We also get into the frothy AI IPO market, speculative leverage trading, and why the next FTX-style collapse would set the entire industry back years. If you care about where real-world asset tokenization is actually heading , not the hype , this one is for you.DISCLAIMERNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

Trump family made $2.3 BILLION in crypto profits while everyday investors lost nearly the SAME amount — Reuters EXPOSED the $TRUMP coin, World Liberty Financial & American Bitcoin playbook. Plus Bitcoin's worst week since FTX, Canada's $100M to Palestine & more.A bombshell Reuters investigation found the Trump family pocketed at least $2.3B across four crypto ventures — World Liberty Financial, the $TRUMP meme coin, ALT5 Sigma, and American Bitcoin — while buyers lost roughly the same, with the family risking virtually none of its own capital. We break it all down, then run the worst week in Bitcoin since the FTX collapse, a $20M token exploit, a 20-year U.S. BTC sell-ban bill, Monaco's 0% crypto tax, and a packed Notable North on Carney's Canada.In this episode of the Canadian Bitcoiners Podcast:

CannCon and Ghost open Tuesday with somber news first: a B-52 crash at Edwards Air Force Base claims all eight servicemen aboard, the latest in a string of unexplained military aircraft losses. From there the show pivots into a packed lineup. Trump's latest Save America Act post adds two new conditions, and CannCon and Ghost debate whether the bill's failure to pass is actually a deliberate gatekeeping move to avoid a "fortified elections, case closed" narrative that would leave the black box voting machines untouched. ICE quietly starts pulling local voter files in Texas, the FBI raids Ohio's leading voter registration nonprofit with 125 agents, and Trump appoints James McDonald, one of the two attorneys who investigated FTX's collapse, as the new US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, days after Sam Bankman-Fried's pardon request and appeal loss. Norm Eisen's States United nonprofit comes under House Oversight scrutiny for deputizing private lawyers to prosecute Trump-aligned alternate electors in Arizona and Minnesota. Gavin Newsom announces he is under DOJ investigation and casts himself as Trump's next political target, while CannCon breaks down how his wife's nonprofit funnels donor and state money into her own for-profit film company through a school licensing scheme.

This is the official court audio, posted by the Court of Appeals on November 5, 2025. I am reposting today because the Court of Appeals has handed down a ruling today affirming the criminal conviction. Below are my thoughts from the day of the argument on appeal, and I continue to hope there can be an amicable resolution among the parties:—The appellate argument is in the appeal of Sam Bankman-Fried's criminal conviction which proceeded, before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The argument was scheduled for 20 minutes or so and went beyond an hour. The bench was a hot bench, with the judges on the panel prepared to ask a lot of questions.Maybe the case will be resolved consensually?The appellant's side, SBF's counsel, argued to the appellate judges that more evidence of advice of counsel would have changed the jury's decision to convict. The judges were skeptical.But the appellee, the government, had a hard time justifying the forfeiture order against Sam Bankman-Fried, which was part of his punishment.There is a disconnect between the presentation of massive losses in the record of the criminal trial relative to representations of customers being paid in full in the FTX bankruptcy. This was discussed at some length during the argument today. I am not sure it is correct that the FTX customers who are to receive (the low) cash value of Crypto as of 11/11/2022 (the FTX bankruptcy filing date, on Veterans Day, during Crypto Winter) are expected to receive the current value of the Crypto or more in the future. So maybe a fact check of the FTX bankruptcy plan would be helpful.More generally, how well the FTX bankruptcy is going/supposed to have gone in terms of paying customers in full seems to undermine at least the forfeiture order. It is not unusual that there is interplay between a criminal case and a bankruptcy case/appeal, proceeding on separate tracks but inter-related factually.I think there could possibly be a motion for new trial at the district court level regardless of the outcome of the appeal, based on the ability to seek a new trial where there is newly discovered evidence… where the interests of Justice require, etc. even where there was a lot of evidence at trial, evidence in support of a jury verdict.The appellate argument today raises questions like how much does acting on advice of counsel count? Is a person who has lawyers acting more in good faith than a person who doesn't have lawyers? Like can a person hire lawyers to set up a business or help as it grows and be excused from criminal responsibility? If so - to what extent? One view expressed during the oral argument today was that it may depend on whether the lawyers know what the client was up to, but that is not something that would usually come into evidence at trial because of privilege issues.This was a fascinating argument. I don't know if it is what SBF wanted to be represented to the court. Is this how he was told his case would be presented? Or does he have the same problem again, where the FTX bankruptcy case was allegedly described to him as planned a certain way, but then the case went another way and he was arrested and blamed for the collapse of FTX.Wasn't he told that a bankruptcy would help liquidity, to monetize FTX assets so that customers could be paid? And then he handed over control of the company, which he laments. The pressure must have been very great, with the other FTX executives blaming him and a bankruptcy presented as a way to stabilize FTX's business and avoid customer losses… and lawyers telling him what to do.I am concerned for pressure SBF is under from lawyers - BECAUSE he does rely on advice of counsel, now as he must - and his emotional health and well being must be under so much pressure.With potential for the SBF case to be heard by the US Supreme Court or a retrial or a pardon, the stakes are high. And with billions at stake in the forfeiture order, based on losses at time of trial that have been reduced, there seems a lot of room for compromise and come to an agreement that resolves the appeal.

Bitcoin just triggered the signal that has marked every previous bear market bottom — half of all circulating BTC supply (roughly 10.5 million coins) is now trading at a loss per Glassnode/K33 Research, the first time this has happened since the late 2022 cycle low. But realized losses over the last 30 days sit at just 187,000 BTC versus 1.2 million after the FTX collapse, meaning capitulation hasn't actually hit yet. Meanwhile, Japan just delivered the biggest bullish policy shift of 2026 — reclassifying crypto as financial products, slashing the tax rate from 55% to 20%, and opening the door to spot crypto ETFs. Add Wall Street dumping $10.8 billion of tech stocks last week (largest tech outflow ever recorded), SoftBank trying to borrow $6 billion against its OpenAI stake just to keep funding OpenAI, Warren's Hail Mary to delay tomorrow's $75B SpaceX IPO, and the historical reality that the 10 biggest IPOs in history dropped 35% in their first six months — and today's setup may be the cleanest historic bottom signal we've seen in three years. We break down whether the supply-in-loss signal actually holds, why capitulation hasn't fully hit yet, what Japan's bombshell means for the bull case, and which catalysts could trigger the real cycle bottom before $50K comes into play.

De cryptomarkt levert de zwaarste week sinds de val van FTX in 2022 in, met bitcoin die kortstondig onder de 60.000 dollar zakt en ruim 390 miljard dollar aan marktwaarde die in een paar dagen verdampt. Het geld stroomt naar AI en naar beursgangen zoals die van SpaceX, terwijl ook hogere rentes druk zetten op risicovolle beleggingen zoals crypto. Bij privacycoin Zcash komt een kwetsbaarheid in de afgeschermde transactielaag aan het licht, waardoor een aanvaller in theorie onbeperkt munten had kunnen creëren zonder dat het netwerk dit merkte. De non-profit Shielded Labs meldt dat de bug is gerepareerd na analyse door beveiligingsonderzoeker Taylor Hornby, die daarbij het AI-model Claude Opus van Anthropic inzette, maar de koers van Zcash levert deze week toch circa 35 à 40% in. In Japan richten de megabanken MUFG, Mizuho en SMBC een gezamenlijke raad op om uiterlijk maart 2027 een yen-stablecoin uit te geven, gebruikmakend van wetgeving die sinds 2023 ruimte biedt voor gereguleerde stablecoins. Het nieuws past in een bredere ontwikkeling van grote banken die werken aan eigen stablecoins, zo werd vorige week bekend dat 25 Europese banken zich aansluiten bij het consortium dat werkt aan Qivalis. Deze week in de Cryptocast Een gesprek met Lucas Wensing, ceo van Amdax en medeoprichter van AMBTS. Het bedrijf, ontstaan vanuit Amdax, maakte afgelopen zomer bekend naar de beurs te willen om geld op te halen om bitcoin te kopen, als treasurybedrijf. De AFM stak een stokje voor de beursgang, Wensing zegt naar het College van Beroep voor het bedrijfsleven te stappen. We spreken hem over de juridische horden die het bedrijf moet nemen, co-host is Jacob Boersma.

Bitcoin just posted its worst week since the FTX collapse — a 16% slide below $60,000, the steepest drop since Sam Bankman-Fried's exchange imploded in November 2022 — and analysts are warning the modest bounce to ~$61,300 may be short-lived. What makes this scarier than the FTX-era crash: there's no single catastrophic catalyst. Analysts are calling it a "silent bear market" because Bitcoin just broke below its 200-week moving average for the first time in this cycle, rate-cut bets have flipped to rate-HIKE bets thanks to strong U.S. jobs data, gold/silver/BTC are all falling together as the safe-haven thesis breaks, and Friday's $75 billion SpaceX IPO is poised to drain another $22.5B of retail capital directly out of crypto. Add Anthropic launching its zero-day-finding Mythos AI today (the same tech that found the four-year-old Zcash bug), Warsh planning to kill the Fed dot-plot, JPMorgan deploying long-running autonomous AI agents, and today's U.S. CPI print landing into the chaos — and this may be the cleanest structural bear market we've seen all cycle. We break down whether the FTX comparison actually holds, what a 200-week MA break historically means for Bitcoin, and which catalysts could stop the bleeding before $50K comes into play.

Bitcoin just crashed toward $59K, fear is surging, and the market is asking the question nobody wants to say out loud: is $40K Bitcoin next? In this episode, Hurley breaks down the brutal Bitcoin selloff, the AI liquidity rotation draining capital from every store of value, Michael Saylor's controversial Strategy sale, and why his latest 1,550 BTC purchase may be the smartest move of the cycle. We also look at the power law support debate, the 200-week moving average, long-term holder behavior, capitulation signals, the CLARITY Act delay, and whether this is a true Bitcoin breakdown or one of the best accumulation zones since the FTX bottom.Click here to learn more about what's coming: https://news.simplybitcoin.com/launchSPONSORS

David Z. Morris is a financial journalist and author of Stealing the Future, a post-trial account of the FTX collapse and the effective altruism ideology behind it.He joins host Aaron Stanley to discuss what the criminal trial revealed that earlier books missed, why Michael Lewis's account functionally serves as a defense of the fraud, and how the ideology that shaped Sam Bankman-Fried continues to circulate under new names.Morris was part of the CoinDesk team that broke the story and later covered the trial for Protos.Topics include the SBF truther movement, speculative but documented questions about Sullivan & Cromwell's intelligence connections, Caroline Ellison's story, stimulant culture at FTX, and how effective altruism has rebranded as "abundance" and "effective accelerationism."Morris argues that EA gave SPF an ethical framework that explicitly justified stealing customer funds - and that the same logic is still being sold to engineers in Silicon Valley today.

Bitcoin just decoupled from the Nasdaq — crashing to $65,385 (lowest level since February) while the Nasdaq 100 prints a fresh all-time high — and the Fear & Greed Index has cratered to 11, the deepest reading of the entire cycle. The thesis: capital is rotating aggressively out of crypto and into the $350 billion equity raise pipeline (SpaceX's roadshow opens tomorrow, Anthropic just confidentially filed at a stunning $965B valuation, OpenAI is next). Add Peter Schiff warning Strategy's STRC could enter a "death spiral," Saylor quietly stacking $29M in cash alongside his first BTC sale since FTX, Tom Lee's Bitmine down $8.9B, and the CLARITY Act facing a brutal 4-week window before Senate recess — and today's setup is the cleanest macro inflection we've seen this cycle. We break down whether the Nasdaq decoupling is structural or temporary, what the IPO drain means for crypto liquidity through summer, and what catalysts could pull Bitcoin out of tech's shadow before $60K comes into play.

EPISODE DESCRIPTIONI sat down with Harvey Liu, co-founder of LeveX Exchange, to dig into what it really takes to build a crypto trading platform from the ground up. Harvey's journey is fascinating , from studying computer science in China, to getting his MBA at INSEAD, to becoming an early Bitcoin investor when BTC was around $100, to backing the founders of Huobi and OKCoin as a VC, and now building his own exchange in Singapore. We talk about why he designed LeveX around social trading, how features like multi-trade and KOL-driven tournaments set them apart from Binance and OKX, and the honest truth about what works and what doesn't in crypto marketing. Harvey also shares what he looks for as a VC when evaluating Web3 startups in a bear market , and why founders with failure experience often outlast the ones who only know wins.

Bitcoin just crashed below $70,000 - falling 3.8% overnight to $69,446 - as $766 million in liquidations cascaded through the leveraged complex and BlackRock's IBIT extended its outflow streak to 10 straight days, with the ETF complex now hemorrhaging $2.4 billion since May 18 alone. Add Michael Saylor's stunning 32 BTC sale (Strategy's first since the FTX collapse in 2022, used to fund STRC dividends), the Fear & Greed Index crashing into "Extreme Fear" at 23, ongoing US-Iran escalation, and growing speculation that Larry Fink is suppressing prices through sustained institutional redemptions — and today's setup looks like the cleanest capitulation we've seen this cycle. We break down what's actually driving the selloff, whether the BlackRock bleed is structural or temporary, what Saylor's "Never Sell" reversal means for the rest of the treasury company space, and what catalysts could stop the bleeding before $65,000 comes into play.

My guest today is Dan Loeb, the founder and CEO of Third Point.  Dan started Third Point in 1995 with a few million dollars, and today the firm manages over 24 billion across equities, corporate and structured credit, venture, and insurance.  He is best known for his activist work at companies like Sotheby's, Sony, and Yahoo, and for the public letters he has written to boards over the years. What I find most interesting about Dan is how much his approach has evolved across thirty years.  He came up as a credit and event-driven investor at Warburg Pincus and Jefferies, built Third Point, then layered in quality investing, thematic technology investing, and now a very large credit business that sits alongside the hedge fund. We cover how he thinks about the AI stack and the companies inside it he believes matter most, the difference between good and bad governance, what FTX taught him about due diligence, the Sony and Sotheby's stories, and the power of writing.

CZ describes his only one‑on‑one meal with Sam Bankman‑Fried while FTX was seeking Binance investment, saying SBF showed very high EQ and said all the right things about collaborating, regulation and growing the industry, yet Binance initially declined to invest before later taking a small stake.

Binance founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao joins Patrick Bet-David to discuss Bitcoin, AI, crypto regulation, the Biden administration's crackdown on crypto, Trump's pardon, FTX, global business migration, and why the UAE became his home base for innovation and security.-------

Today's Headlines: Trump hosted kids at the White House for a Presidential Fitness Award ceremony, fell asleep while RFK Jr. spoke, and used the occasion to rant about Iran to a room full of children — meanwhile, Pete Hegseth was simultaneously insisting the ceasefire was still intact while missiles were actively flying over the Strait of Hormuz, and Marco Rubio filled in at the press briefing to tout US humanitarian aid for Cuba, a country we are currently blockading. In other news, over a quarter of DOJ attorneys — roughly 3,400 lawyers with an average tenure of over 13 years — have walked out or been fired since Trump took office, ICE's own internal records confirm a 37% spike in use of force against detainees across 98 facilities, and a new study from the National Bureau of Economic Research found that ICE enforcement is actually hurting US-born workers in construction and similar sectors, with no wage increases to show for it. In creepy Congress members news, Republican Rep. Chuck Edwards is under investigation for alleged misconduct toward two female staffers in their 20s, including gifts, a handwritten love letter, and a Las Vegas vacation he took during a government shutdown he almost missed voting to end — his office also had a 59% staff turnover rate in 2025, more than double the House average. In tech and media news, the White House is planning an executive order on AI oversight involving Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI before models are released to the public, Pennsylvania sued Character.AI for having its chatbot impersonate a licensed psychiatrist complete with a fake license number, and James Murdoch is reportedly in talks to acquire Vox Media, which owns New York Magazine, The Verge, and Eater, potentially outbidding the competing offer from former NBC spinoff Versant. And finally, NPR went to Panama looking for Polymarket's corporate headquarters and found an essentially empty office where nobody had ever heard of the $15 billion prediction market platform — which also happens to share a law firm with FTX, so that's extremely reassuring.
