Rising bitcoin prices bring echoes of the crypto mania from years past, and an ambitious hacker decides to manifest a new job for themselves. Originally published on December 5, 2023.

Guy Young is the Founder & CEO of Ethena Labs (www.ethena.fi). Backed by Huobi, Arthur Hayes, & more, Ethena Labs is all about unlocking the potential of staked Ethereum. Their main offerings are a delta-neutral stablecoin with embedded yield (called USDe), globally accessible floating & fixed rate USD-denominated bonds, and capital efficient and composable leverage.

In this episode, Justin Sun reveals Huobi's and Poloniex's procedure for listing new memecoins and explains why the crypto market has grown too big for any single exchange to service effectively. Sun claims that Binance may be the biggest exchange by market share, but it is not the best venue for trading smaller memecoins: "Binance these days has a very high standard of listing crypto assets. [A coin] needs to be at least $100 million or even $1 billion to get listed on Binance in the first place. So that's why I think this leaves a very big room for other exchanges to grow."Justin Sun himself recently announced on Twitter that he would start trading memecoins for "fun."

"The first thing is that the crypto market is still quite small compared to the equity [market]. [The size of the crypto market to equity market is about] one to 120, less than 0.8%, not even 1%. So, some smaller projects are very manipulated. [It is a] tough market, and second thing is that a lot of people say the variation for crypto is Twitter driven. So when Elon Musk or CZ send out a Tweet, it can pump up the project by about 5% to 10%. Because each [crypto] project is like religion, people believe in you." - Chris Lee   Fresh out of the studio, Chris Lee, co-founder & partner of TKX Capital joined us in a conversation about TKX Capital and his perspectives on how to invest in crypto projects and protocols globally in an uncertain era. Chris began the conversation with his background as the former CFO for both cryptocurrency exchanges: OK Coin and Huobi, and what he learned from meeting Warren Buffett in person. Next, he deep-dived into the mission, vision and investment thesis of TKX Capital and shared his thoughts on the current crypto market. Last but not least, he offered his thoughts on what great looks like for TKX Capital.   Podcast Information: The show is hosted and produced by Bernard Leong (@bernardleong, Linkedin) and Carol Yin (@CarolYujiaYin, LinkedIn).

On Saturday, Trump claimed that he would be arrested on Tuesday in the Manhattan District Attorney's probe. On Monday, three Republican committee chairmen accused District Attorney Alvin Bragg of abusing his prosecutorial authority and sought communications, documents, and testimony from him. As of Wednesday, the grand jury hearing evidence in the Stormy Daniels case had yet to issue an indictment, and on Thursday, Bragg's office confirmed that it was investigating allegations that Trump engaged in violations of New York State penal law. If indicted, Trump would be the first US president to face criminal charges. Trump faces federal investigations stemming from his handling of government documents after leaving the White House, alleged attempts to overturn his 2020 election defeat, and a state-level probe in Georgia into whether he unlawfully sought to reverse the 2020 election results there. Trump has denied the allegations and called the investigation politically motivated.It's Friday, let's take a fun little digression into the arrests of presidents of yore. In an oft-retold but perhaps apocryphal tale in 1872, President Ulysses S Grant was arrested for speeding in his horse-drawn carriage. He was nicked at the corner of 13th and M streets in Washington DC, by a Black civil war veteran policeman named William H West. Grant was known for his excellent horsemanship and loved to drive a pair of spirited animals. The president apologized and left on the first occasion, but was caught again the next day. West placed him under arrest and he was ordered to pay $20. A trial was held the next day, with heavy fines and a scathing rebuke issued against numerous speeding drivers. However, Grant did not show up. Trump will probably not be able to get out of this one quite so easily, but if history is any guide he won't be seeing the inside of a jail cell any time soon. Manhattan DA: Trump created false expectation of arrest, Republicans interferedGalloping Grant: the day a sitting president of the US was arrestedJustin Sun, the crypto entrepreneur who made headlines for paying millions to have lunch with Warren Buffet, is now facing civil charges for allegedly violating US securities laws by offering and selling two unregistered crypto tokens, Tronix and BitTorrent, and manipulating the prices of TRX. The SEC has filed a complaint against Sun and three of his companies in a Manhattan federal court. Sun is a Chinese national and an adviser to crypto exchange Huobi, as well as the founder of blockchain company Tron. The SEC has also brought civil charges against eight celebrities, including Lindsay Lohan, who were paid to illegally promote TRX and BTT. Mr. Sun tweeted that the SEC's complaint “lacks merit,” and that the accusations were only the latest example of action the regulator has taken against “well-known players in the blockchain and crypto space.” In 2019, Sun paid $4.6 million in an auction to secure a lunch date with Warren Buffett. Sun postponed the lunch, citing an illness with kidney stones, and later said he hoped to discuss cryptocurrencies and blockchain with the billionaire investor. Sun recently made headlines by offering $1.5 billion to buy Credit Suisse, as the bank was in the middle of talks to be bought by rival UBS Group AG. Credit Suisse did not publicly respond to the offer.Crypto Promoter Justin Sun Draws the Spotlight, This Time From Regulators Utah has become the first state to introduce laws that limit children's use of social media. The two measures, signed by Governor Spencer Cox, require parental consent before children can sign up for sites such as TikTok and Instagram. They also prohibit the use of social media by children under 18 between 10:30 pm and 6:30 am, require age verification for users in the state, and seek to prevent companies from luring children to their apps with addictive features. Similar proposals are being considered in Arkansas, Texas, Ohio, Louisiana, and New Jersey, as well as California. Social media companies will likely have to design new features to comply with parts of the law. However, it remains unclear how the regulations will be enforced. Children's advocacy groups have generally welcomed the law, while tech industry lobbyists have criticized it as unconstitutional, citing the infringement of First Amendment rights.Utah's new social media law means children will need approval from parentsUS lawmakers grilled TikTok CEO, Shou Zi Chew, over concerns about the app's influence on Americans and possible Chinese interference. The questions were mostly of a grandstanding variety and those that were directed at specific issues tended, as the clip played in the episode indicates, to miss the point. Chew repeatedly denied connections with the Chinese Communist Party and stated that TikTok has taken necessary steps to ensure the safety of American users. US lawmakers accused the app of damaging children's mental health and promoting content that encourages eating disorders, illegal drug sales, and sexual exploitation. While Chew's responses did little to calm US lawmakers' concerns over the app's China-based parent company, ByteDance, he emphasized that American data is stored on American soil, by an American company, overseen by American personnel. A bipartisan group of US senators has backed legislation that would give President Joe Biden's administration the power to ban TikTok, and the app's fate has added a new element to tensions between the US and China. The hearing's outcome and lawmakers' next steps remain unclear, but the possibility of a ban has prompted shares of social media companies that compete with TikTok for advertising, such as Facebook and Snap, to rise.TikTok congressional hearing: CEO Shou Zi Chew grilled by US lawmakers Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

For The Scoop's final episode of 2022, Larry Cermak, vice president of Research at The Block, joins host Frank Chaparro to unpack highlights from The Block Research's 2023 Digital Assets Outlook Report and to break down some of the major events that shaped the crypto market in 2022. The Block Research's 2023 Digital Assets Outlook Report offers a deep look into the state of the crypto markets today and analysis on trends that could emerge in the year ahead. Generally speaking, Cermak says institutional investors are becoming more comfortable with crypto's extreme volatility: “The institutional investors understand now that just because we have dropped by 80%, and just because a lot of funds and a lot of companies have gotten destroyed, that doesn't mean that crypto will not come back. They understand the volatility, understand the cycles, and a lot of them want to be in a better position before the next movement.” Although bear markets are characterized by a lack of exuberance among market participants, “these are really the periods when a lot of new projects are born,” Cermak says. “A lot of new narratives for the industry are going to be born.” Disclaimer: Beginning in 2021, Michael McCaffrey, the former CEO and majority owner of The Block, took a series of loans from former FTX and Alameda founder Sam Bankman-Fried. McCaffrey resigned from the company in December 2022 after failing to disclose those transactions.

Founded in 2013, GSR is one of the oldest crypto market makers and is also an active venture investor. In this episode of The Scoop, GSR CEO Jakob Palmstierna discusses how his firm is responding to the collapse of FTX and shares his forecast for what a crypto recovery might look like. According to Palmstierna, GSR covered the losses of all of its customers who had funds stuck on FTX:  “We announced that customers of ours that had funds locked in FTX, we would reimburse them so they didn't have those losses, which is not ‘effective altruism,' it's about creating some stability within the market and being here for the future.” Although 2022 was filled with calamities for the crypto industry, Palmstierna says the underlying technology is continuing to develop: “Everything that happened over 2022 has very little to nothing to do with the underlying technology of crypto. There are well-funded projects out there, there are really good builders — it's one of the biggest sections of talent density that we have seen since the early internet days.” Disclaimer: Beginning in 2021, Michael McCaffrey, the former CEO and majority owner of The Block, took a series of loans from former FTX and Alameda founder Sam Bankman-Fried.

Founded in 2011, Bitstamp has navigated the ups and downs of multiple crypto market cycles over the years. In this episode of The Scoop, Bitstamp USA CEO Bobby Zagotta discusses Bitstamp's resilience, and explains how centralized exchanges can restore user confidence in the wake of FTX's collapse. According to Zagotta, "proof-of-reserves" is an important step towards giving customers more visibility into how centralized exchanges manage customer assets:  "On the one hand, the way many exchanges operate is pretty opaque; but on the other hand, blockchain technology creates the opportunity for radical transparency… Proof-of-reserves will allow customers to see that the assets on the exchange exceed the liabilities on the exchange.” Although large exchanges such as Binance, KuCoin and Crypto.com have all attempted to establish proof-of-reserves, the accounting firm conducting these reports announced last week that it is pausing all work for its crypto exchanges clients, and others around the industry have been skeptical of the legitimacy of these reports. The current method for proof-of-reserves “is not perfect,” Zagotta says, because “it's a snapshot in time.” Episode 127 of Season 4 of The Scoop was recorded remotely with The Block's Frank Chaparro and Bitstamp USA CEO Bobby Zagotta.

To date, Silicon Valley-based VC firm a16z has raised over $7.6 billion to invest in crypto and web3. In this episode of The Scoop, a16z General Partner Chris Dixon shares some of the guiding principles that determine a16z's investments in the crypto space and explains why the time is ripe for decentralized networks to replace centralized, corporate networks. According to Dixon, both a16z and other VC firms have begun to shy away from investing in projects building on top of corporate networks: “Our firm and others do not invest in things anymore that are building on these networks — on these corporate networks like Facebook and TikTok and things — because they know we've seen before that if you're successful, they'll just take all the money.” While corporate networks had initial advantages such as access to VC funding and the ability to subsidize parts of their business models, Dixon believes decentralized networks have matured to the point where they are ready to take on their corporate counterparts. As Dixon explains, “Now we have the tools, I believe we, meaning the side of people that want things to be open and community-owned through blockchains, now have the tools to rival corporate networks and beat them.” Episode 126 of Season 4 of The Scoop was recorded remotely with The Block's Frank Chaparro and a16z General Partner Chris Dixon.

Solana co-founder Raj Gokal has referred to the FTX crisis as a "crucible moment" for Solana's ecosystem. The amount of value moved on Solana has decreased dramatically since Alameda declared bankruptcy in November, data from The Block shows. In this episode of The Scoop, Solana co-founders Raj Gokal and Anatoly Yakovenko discuss how Solana initially became intertwined with FTX, and when they first started to notice that Sam Bankman-Fried's ambitions diverged from the crypto ethos. While Bankman-Fried and FTX were focused on building a centralized exchange, the Solana co-founders were focused on building self-custody solutions. As Yakovenko explains, “FTX became a much bigger brand and started going in a very global direction … but we were focused on building stuff for self-custody users.” Despite the setback FTX's collapse has had on Solana's ecosystem, Gokal says the focus on self-custody has led to real user adoption: “It's pretty exciting now to see that focusing on self-custody users and open-source software has created this huge boom — it's what captured most of the users and active addresses on Solana.” Disclaimer: Beginning in 2021, Michael McCaffrey, the former CEO and majority owner of The Block, took a series of loans from former FTX and Alameda founder Sam Bankman-Fried.

Six-time NBA champion Scottie Pippen is making his mark on the metaverse with a digital sneaker collection featuring 1,000 unique ‘SP33' NFTs. For the launch, Pippen partnered with Orange Comet — the company that recently helped Sir Anthony Hopkins launch his own NFT collection. In this episode of The Scoop, Scottie Pippen and Orange Comet CEO Dave Broome discuss how Web3 is creating new ways for celebrities and fans to connect, and share the story behind the upcoming ‘SP33' NFT collection. According to Pippen, launching a digital sneaker collection is a way to bring his brand into the digital era. “I was a big sneakerhead growing up in the NBA world, so this is my opportunity to really resurface back into the sneaker world, but do it from a digital standpoint.” Not only will holders be able to wear their SP33 shoes around the metaverse, but 33 of the 1,000 NFTs will also come with a real-world sneaker prototype. Episode 124 of Season 4 of The Scoop was recorded live with The Block's Frank Chaparro and NBA legend Scottie Pippen and Orange Comet CEO Dave Broome.

In this episode of The Scoop, Sam Bankman-Fried describes how a legacy payment system linked FTX's future to Alameda Research's fate, and explores why regulators and auditors alike failed to discover this relationship. According to Bankman-Fried, many FTX customers would fund their accounts via direct wire transfers to Alameda Research bank accounts: “What that flow I think looked like was basically: Bob wires $100 straight to Alameda Research, and then Alameda effectively ledger transfers $100 to Bob on FTX.” SBF has claimed that wired customer funds contributed to over half of Alameda's position on FTX, likely totaling over $5 billion, as reported by the WSJ. In hindsight, SBF says a “reasonably responsible” way of managing direct wire transfers would have been only debiting Alameda's primary FTX account. In practice, however, wired customer funds were being credited from an Alameda stub account that SBF says “was specifically meant to be a ledger for wire transfers.” When pressed on how regulators and auditors failed to uncover the extent of Alameda's relationship to FTX, SBF alleged that customer positions — including Alameda's — were not part of FTX's balance sheet: “This was effectively a customer negative position, and many customers had negative positions open on FTX… Those were not part of FTX's assets or liabilities, they were customer assets and liabilities, and so FTX's financials were not directly impacted by this.” Episode 121 of Season 4 of The Scoop was recorded remotely with The Block's Frank Chaparro, and Sam Bankman-Fried, Co-Founder of FTX and Alameda Research.

In 2020, Cowen Digital formed to allow institutional customers of the investment bank Cowen to trade digital assets. The digital arm has been growing steadily in its eight months of existence, despite the onset of crypto winter. In this episode of The Scoop, Cowen Digital managing director and head Drew Forman explains how the crypto industry can rebuild in the wake of FTX's meltdown, as well as what it will take to repair trust in the space among institutional investors. According to Forman, many of Cowen's institutional clients are “getting the pipes ready” to take part in crypto's next wave. But regulatory clarity is still needed before large, sophisticated institutions get involved. Forman explains: “I welcome a set of rules ahead of time that we all look to abide by — and hopefully that allows the big institutional investors with the trillion dollar balance sheets to start allocating to the space.” The SEC and DOJ are currently examining FTX's case, and the CFTC chair's is set to appear before the Senate Agriculture Committee on December 1 to testify on the exchange's collapse. Episode 120 of Season 4 of The Scoop was recorded live with The Block's Frank Chaparro, and Drew Forman, Managing Partner and Head of Cowen Digital.

As the crypto market struggles to gain its footing in the wake of FTX's demise, sweeping layoffs have thinned the ranks of many companies. In this episode of The Scoop, Rob Paone, founder and CEO of crypto recruiting firm Proof of Talent, shares his perspective on how the crypto hiring landscape has changed during the bear market. According to Paone, the current dynamic between job seekers and prospective employers is much more balanced than it was last year: “It's not 100% a company market right now… but it is a lot more equal than six to twelve months ago — it was a totally candidate-driven market of individuals naming their price and going wherever they wanted with multiple offers.” Paone says that candidates with technical skills should still be able to find plenty of opportunities:  “The easiest transition for a lot of people is technical roles — there is a huge demand still for engineering talent…the non-technical roles can get a little bit more challenging.” Episode 119 of Season 4 of The Scoop was recorded live with The Block's Frank Chaparro, and Rob Paone, Founder and CEO of Proof of Talent.

In the fourth installment of The Scoop's continued coverage of FTX's demise, host Frank Chaparro examines the legal underpinnings of FTX's bankruptcy and restructuring process with Dan Besikof, a partner at the law firm Loeb & Loeb, and Mark Shapiro, Chair of the Financial Restructuring Group and a partner at the law firm of Shearman & Sterling. In 2008, Shapiro served as the Head of Restructuring for Lehman Brothers, where he guided the sale of the firm's U.S. assets in chapter 11. According to Besikof, FTX's fiduciary will likely attempt to bring money back into the estate through lawsuits: “One of the things that they're going to look at is where did money go out where value didn't come back, and to the extent money went out and value didn't come back, that's a natural target for a fraudulent conveyance lawsuit or a fraudulent transfer lawsuit.” FTX has notified a federal judge it wants BitGo to custody its $740 million worth of digital assets. While the exact situation of FTX's finances is still uncertain, Shapiro says the sheer amount of money lost by FTX users is likely to prompt regulators to take a more proactive approach going forward: “Now that it's become so public and so much money has been lost, I think the paternalistic side of the government is going to take over and try to do something about protecting investors.” Episode 118 of Season 4 of The Scoop was recorded live with The Block's Frank Chaparro, Dan Besikof, a Partner at Loeb & Loeb, and Mark Shapiro, a Partner at Shearman & Sterling.
