The SEC approved its "innovation exemption" that brings stocks on-chain.

David Kinitsky, Chief Corporate Development Officer at Everstake, shares what distinguishes this cycle of enterprise crypto adoption from every previous one, and why the shift matters. He explains why staking is a foundational infrastructure play, not just a yield product; what institutional due diligence on staking looks like in practice; and why the prevailing narrative around tokenization misidentifies the real unlock. He also lays out a longer-term thesis: that AI agents will eventually manage personalized financial portfolios for everyday people at the level currently reserved for the most sophisticated wealth management clients. Key Takeaways: What's different about this cycle of enterprise crypto adoption Why staking matters beyond yield, and the role validators play What institutions require before allocating significant capital to staking Why tokenization's most important unlock is programmability and composability How AI agents could extend institutional-grade portfolio management to everyday users Guest Bio: David Kinitsky is a seasoned executive with 15+ years of experience in the financial and technology sectors, including 12+ years in crypto. He is currently the Chief Corporate Development Officer at Everstake, after previously helping to launch a streak of industry innovations and business successes at Kraken, Circle, Fidelity, Grayscale, and SecondMarket. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About this Show: The Brave Technologist is here to shed light on the opportunities and challenges of emerging tech.

Washington just proved you can't bet on it — so where does smart money go when everything breaks? We break down the three tokens built for exactly this moment: one defensive, one offensive, one growth engine. Each one has already won its battles, generates real value, and has a history of climbing while everything else falls.

Nick Valdez dives into the latest Grayscale report. In the report, they make a clear distinction between winning projects and projects to avoid. Let's look at Near Protocol, Hyperliquid, and Chainlink!

Zach Pandl, Head of Research at Grayscale Investments, argues that speculative retail flows, not geopolitical fundamentals, drove the recent gold and Bitcoin selloffs. His read: momentum chasing built gold from $4,000 to well above $5,000, then rotated out to chips and pre-IPO trades. The underlying deficit-and-debt case for both assets hasn't changed, and he's calling the dip a buy for longer-horizon investors. He closes with Grayscale's H2 DeFi revenue thesis. Hyperliquid is the clearest proof of concept: a protocol with a clear use case, real revenue, and value returned to token holders. Grayscale applied a discounted cash flow model to Aave and published a price target on the token.

This bonus episode of Public Keys was recorded live at Consensus. Host Jennifer Sanasie sits down with three guests at the center of crypto in the public markets. Grayscale's Krista Lynch breaks down how crypto ETFs have evolved from simple bitcoin access into index products, in-kind creation for crypto whales, and early staking. Morgan Stanley's Amy Oldenburg explains how MSBT became the firm's most successful ETF launch ever — $230 million in three and a half weeks at 14 bps — while the firm simultaneously rolls out spot crypto trading across its $7 trillion wealth platform. And BitGo CEO Mike Belshe joins four months into his IPO to discuss the firm's OCC charter and why the Clarity Act matters more as a legislative stamp of approval than anything it changes on day one. - Timecodes: 00:00 Welcome to Public Keys: A Bonus Episode from Consensus 00:55 Grayscale's Krista Lynch Joins Public Keys 01:30 Eight Single-Token ETFs and the Rise of Crypto Indexing 02:20 In-Kind ETF Creation Brings Crypto Whales to Wall Street 04:00 Why Crypto Whales Want ETF Exposure 06:00 Advisor Education and the State of Crypto Onboarding 07:00 Staking Comes to the ETF Wrapper 08:30 Morgan Stanley's Amy Oldenburg Joins Public Keys 09:00 The 50 bps Spot Crypto Trading Fee 10:00 Top-of-House Alignment at Morgan Stanley 11:00 What Was Happening Behind the Scenes in 2024 12:30 MSBT: $230M and Morgan Stanley's Most Successful ETF Launch Ever 14:00 Over-Hyped or Underrated: $1B in MSBT by Year-End 16:00 BitGo CEO Mike Belshe Joins Public Keys 17:00 Four Months Into Life as a Public Company 17:30 The Institutionalization of Crypto Infrastructure 18:30 Why the Genius and Clarity Acts Matter 20:30 Coinbase Still Charges Retail 130 bps 22:30 BitGo's OCC Charter and the Future of Reserve Banking 23:30 What the Clarity Act Actually Changes 24:30 TradFi Is Waiting for the Legislative Stamp of Approval - This episode was hosted by Jennifer Sanasie.

This week on HR's most dangerous podcast, Chad and JT are cutting through the seasonal slush and corporate spin. The BLS Fairy Tale: The White House is hailing a "golden age" of job growth, but we're pulling back the curtain on a report filled with striking workers returning to payrolls and construction crews finally seeing the sun. The Agentic Takeover: Paylocity acquires Grayscale as the industry pivots from simple SMS pings to full-blown AI orchestration. Is this a high-value play or just an "aqua-hire" to survive the tech-debt race?. Uncle Sam's Playbook: Healthcare startup Clasp raises $20M by dusting off a 100-year-old military model to trade student loan debt for employee tenure. The Dorsey Doctrine: We dive into Jack Dorsey's "heady" vision of a remote-first world where AI maintains a company's "world model," effectively flattening the hierarchy and making middle management obsolete. Is the economy actually booming, or is it just a "two-week" soundbite on loop?. Grab a whiskey (preferably Blanton's) and find out.

The Shred is a weekly roundup of what's making headlines in the world of employment. The Shred is brought to you today by Jobcase.
