We discussed:Stories and lessons learned from working with David Swensen at the Yale Endowment.What the wealth channel can learn from institutional investors.What Ted looked for in hedge funds and alternative asset managers when doing manager due diligence.Ted's bet with Buffett on hedge funds and why he's now doing a bet on PE versus public equities.How alternative asset managers are evolving and the pros and cons of evergreen structures.Why and how Ted started Capital Allocators and why content is so critical to learning asset management and understanding how firms operate.Capital Allocators is one of my favorite podcast listens and Ted always delivers with high-quality and thoughtful content so it was an honor to have him on the show.Thanks Ted for sharing your expertise and wisdom on asset allocation and content and for the service you provide to everyone in the industry through education and the creation of such high-quality content for us to consume.A word from AGM podcast sponsor, Juniper SquareWhen was the last time things were easy for GPs?Fundraising remains challenging, providing liquidity to investors is even harder—and broadly speaking, most GPs are underwater operationally.It's not about to get easier, either.

What happens when Bitcoiners stop waiting for legacy platforms and start building their own? In this episode, Mike sits down with Jake Seifert, co-founder of AirBTC, a Bitcoin-first alternative to Airbnb. Jake's not just talking about circular economy theory, he's out there trying to make it real, one travel listing at a time.They get into the friction points of convincing Bitcoiners to actually spend their Bitcoin, the role of KYC in a decentralized travel platform, and why it's not enough to just stack sats. Jake explains how AirBTC works, how it handles payments in SATs, and why peer-to-peer lodging still needs basic trust. The conversation also explores why most listings are outside the US, what it's like bootstrapping without fiat funding, and why hodl-only culture might be holding the movement back.This episode gives a front-line view of what it takes to build infrastructure for a Bitcoin standard, no venture capital, no permission, just a platform made by and for people who want to live on Bitcoin now. It's also a challenge: if you're serious about decentralization, why are you still booking travel with fiat?If you've ever looked at your wallet and thought, "I'll spend later," this one's for you. Subscribe, share it with your hardest-core hodler friend, and drop a comment if you've ever listed a room, or stayed in one, using Bitcoin.-Bitcoin Beach TeamConnect and Learn more about Jake SeifertX: https://x.com/airbtconline Web: https://airbtc.online/ Support and follow Bitcoin Beach:X: @BitcoinBeachIG: @bitcoinbeach_svTikTok: @livefrombitcoinbeachWeb: bitcoinbeach.comBrowse through this quick guide to learn more about the episode:00:00 What is the real goal of Bitcoin circular economies?01:02 Why did Jake create AirBTC instead of waiting for Airbnb to adapt?03:01 How did Jake Seifert first discover Bitcoin and what pulled him in?06:31 What's been harder: getting hosts or getting Bitcoiners to spend?08:42 Why optionality is critical for Bitcoin travel to succeed10:54 Can Bitcoin rentals actually inject value into local communities?13:26 What kind of KYC does AirBTC require for hosts and guests?15:24 How does AirBTC handle payments, fees, and SATs conversion?20:47 Why is El Salvador leading in Bitcoin travel listings?22:38 What's more important now: listings or Bitcoin spenders?31:18 Will mainstream platforms like Airbnb eventually accept Bitcoin?Live From Bitcoin Beach

Crypto's privacy war isn't simmering anymore. It's blowing wide open. What began as a digital experiment has morphed into something closer to a modern-day Reformation. An uprising against centralized power, driven not by scripture, but by code. From Brussels to Washington, authorities are drafting their own theses. More KYC. Fewer privacy tools. A coordinated effort to strip anonymity from the system. But the crypto world isn't kneeling. For many, financial freedom means self-custody, not compliance. It means privacy by design, not by permission. As someone who has long followed this space and considers XRP one of the most fascinating and resilient projects in the ecosystem, I have watched these battles unfold with growing concern. This isn't just about coins or code. It is about whether digital privacy survives the crusade against it or gets excommunicated entirely. Why Crypto Was Always About Privacy When Bitcoin launched in 2009, it wasn't just about making money. It was a protest. A way to flip the script on centralized banks, bloated institutions, and the people who controlled your financial life. Crypto's early adopters were rebels. The ideas behind it? Pseudonymity, freedom from censorship, and control over your own funds. Privacy coins like Monero and Zcash weren't shady outliers. They were the purest version of the original dream. Self-custody wallets let people hold their own keys. No middlemen. No questions asked. It made sense for a movement born from libertarian roots, where freedom from surveillance was sacred. But that dream is now under threat. The threat is not from hackers, but from the very systems crypto tried to escape. Why Crypto Scares Governments Governments never like a system they can't watch or tax. That's where the friction started. The European Union rolled out its Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, aiming for comprehensive oversight. The United Kingdom pushed its financial promotions regime, tightening the reins on crypto marketing. And the US Treasury? It's making aggressive moves to bring Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements to the forefront of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) platforms. Their stated reasons sound reasonable: they want to stop money laundering, terrorism financing, and tax evasion. A critical distinction exists between fighting genuine crime and effectively criminalizing financial privacy for all. However, that line is indeed getting increasingly blurry. Crackdown measures against privacy coins are ramping up with alarming speed. Monero and Zcash, once mainstays, have been delisted from major exchanges as compliance pressures mount. Developers of privacy-focused wallets now face legal threats and increasing scrutiny. Even established tools like Wasabi Wallet are blocking users in certain regions, demonstrating the immediate impact of these regulatory shifts. Crypto's privacy tools are no longer merely innovative instruments; they have become targets in a broader regulatory crackdown, pushing the boundaries of individual financial freedom. The ongoing pressure is forcing the crypto ecosystem to adapt, often by compromising on the very privacy features that were once central to its appeal. KYC vs. DeFi: The Fight Over Self-Custody KYC means Know Your Customer. It's how banks check who you are, verifying identities to prevent illicit activities. However, in the decentralized finance (DeFi) landscape, where no single entity controls the platform, the question of who performs this checking remains unanswered, much to the discomfort of regulators. Decentralized platforms like Uniswap lack a central off switch or a single point of control, making traditional enforcement mechanisms ineffective. Tornado Cash, for instance, did not simply vanish after sanctions were imposed; its code remained open-source and operational, a testament to the resilient nature of decentralization. This inherent characteristic makes enforcing KYC in DeFi incredibly challenging. It is also precisely wh...

How do we bridge this massive gap?Harshit Gangwar, Head of Marketing and Investor Relations at Transak, joins us to reveal how they've built the infrastructure powering crypto purchases for millions through MetaMask, Ledger, Uniswap, and 450+ other applications across 100+ countries. With $2 billion in processed volume and backing from consensus, Visa, and Mastercard, Transak offers unique insights into building trust at the intersection of decentralized and traditional finance."Finding the right messaging and understanding in the early stages that it's going to be different and accepting that as a fact is very much important," Harshit explains as he unpacks their dual communication strategy. Web3 natives and traditional financial institutions require completely different approaches – from platform selection (Twitter vs. LinkedIn) to messaging tone and compliance considerations across multiple regulatory jurisdictions.The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Harshit reveals how Transak is evolving beyond simple crypto purchases to enable stablecoin-powered remittances and cross-border payments. By building the necessary infrastructure – including licenses, banking partnerships, risk engines, and KYC systems – they're creating real-world utility that even traditional financial institutions are beginning to recognize.For Web3 marketers, Harshit leaves us with a powerful reminder: "Marketers need to take that role in their companies to understand what's happening in the industry and drive real change." The most effective marketing leaders in this space aren't just creating content – they're deeply understanding both the technology and customer needs to help shape product direction and business strategy.Join us for this enlightening conversation about building trust, navigating regulation, and creating the infrastructure that will help bring the next billion users into Web3.This episode was recorded through a Descript call on June 18, 2025.

The U.S. House met today about the fate of digital currency, and confidence is high that the way money will be distributed will change soon. President Trump's administration is quietly advancing stablecoin legislation that would hand digital currency control to the same banking cartel that owns the Federal Reserve. The STABLE Act and GENIUS Act don't protect financial privacy—they enshrine financial surveillance into law, requiring strict KYC tracking on every transaction. This isn't defeating digital tyranny—it's rebranding it. Listen M-F at 7 pm, pacific time, with Clyde Lewis and financial analyst, Alan Johnson, on groundzeroplus.com.

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. In this episode, the crew breaks down the return of the ICO — but with a twist. Pump.fun's $500 million token sale sells out in 12 minutes, sparking a heated debate about forward markets, new market structure design, and whether we've entered a smarter, more institutionalized fundraising era—or just rebranded 2017 chaos. Hyperliquid becomes the surprise king of pre-launch liquidity, exchanges buckle under demand, and a new class of crypto treasury vehicles raises eyebrows (and capital). Meanwhile, Trump declares “Crypto Week” as Congress moves forward with the most sweeping legislation the industry's seen in years. Is crypto finally growing up—or just getting better at dumping on retail? The gang dissects the narratives, the numbers, and the fallout.

What happens when your work drains rather than energizes you? For Ahalya Vijay, VP of Product Operations at Worldpay, this realization sparked a pivotal career transformation from consulting to product leadership in payments.In this illuminating conversation for Women Leaders in Payments month, Ahalya shares her global journey from Singapore to the crossroads of product and technology transformation. With remarkable candor, she reveals how an exercise mapping her energy levels across various projects led to a career-defining revelation: her superpower lies in cross-functional leadership, bringing diverse perspectives together to create tangible solutions.At WorldPay, Ahalya leads Product Operations across three critical domains: strategy planning, analytics reporting, and operating model transformation. She describes product management as "a constant game of trade-offs," requiring data-driven decision-making to prioritize initiatives with limited resources. Her collaborative leadership style enables her to be a bridge between business functions while empowering team members to reach their potential.The conversation ventures into artificial intelligence's transformative impact on payments, with Ahalya detailing how Worldpay is embedding AI into products while developing responses to its implications for tokenization, fraud prevention, and KYC. She also highlights open banking's potential growth in the US market, with Worldpay planning significant product launches in coming quarters.Perhaps most valuable is Ahalya's distinction between mentorship and sponsorship. While mentors advise, sponsors "solve for your potential before you're aware of it," creating opportunities by advocating for you in rooms where you aren't present. Her advice for women in payments? "Own your impact and your story. Become comfortable talking about yourself because you're your best advocate."

Josh Sigurdson reports on the rollout of CBDCs (Central Bank Digital Currencies) in nearly every country worldwide simultaneously alongside Digital IDs. Order out of chaos. There is chaos being perpetuated by design worldwide right now and conveniently, nearly every government is rolling out a cashless society as the United States pushes forward AI legislation, passes the GENIUS Act, XMoney launches in partnership with Visa as part of the social media X's social credit system, the European Union launches a Digital ID wallet at the same time as they launch a CBDC by October at the latest, the UK launches their Digital ID wallet and pushes for the Pound to "go woke" and the Australian Digital ID wallet is launched as a litmus for other countries. Russia, China and other BRICS+ countries are full steam ahead with mandated Digital IDs and major corporations like Palantir are creating vast databases on everyone which will likely be ties to their social media presence as well as their credit card spending. As the EU rolls out their Digital ID and CBDC faster than almost anyone else, they're also banning private messaging and privacy coins, settling for KYC based cryptocurrency stablecoins. This is similar to the US push for banks to regulate crypto, ironically the exact thing crypto was designed to fight. Meanwhile, SpaceX will invest $2 billion in Elon Musk's xAI which Musk just sold X to for $33 billion. This comes as SpaceX launches a $200 million smartphone in space for Israel. There are no coincidences here. They're destroying the supply chain, the grid, controlling the surveillance of the internet, destroying the economy and coming in with their so-called solution with a ration based technocracy, entirely eliminating independence. Are people ready to withdraw from this system? Or depend on it forever. Tyranny comes under the guise of convenience. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

My guest today is Susie Violet Ward, CEO and co-founder of Bitcoin Policy UK, a financial analyst and journalist (Forbes) focused on Bitcoin and the environment. In this episode, Susie unpacks the regulatory hostility toward Bitcoin in the UK, from the FCA's refusal to distinguish it from crypto, to the media's relentless misinformation, especially by the BBC. We discuss her personal journey from accountant to developer to Bitcoiner, and the uphill battle of educating regulators, advocating for mining, and defending financial sovereignty. Susie shares her efforts to expose flawed climate narratives, resist CBDCs, and challenge the FATF Travel Rule's surveillance overreach. We also explore the risks of mining centralization, media capture, and why misunderstanding at the top is often worse than malice. Above all, this is a conversation about standing up for truth, pushing back against state overreach, and building a decentralized future, one policy at a time. ► This episode is part of the "Bitcoin Vegas 2025 Special" in collaboration with Ben Samocha, Founder of Israel's CryptoJungle and Crypto Talks podcast.► If you got value, please like, comment, share, follow and support my work.

AI isn't a campaign. It's a core banking reset.In this episode of Couchonomics with Arjun, we're joined by Amith Rajan, CEO of Neo Ventures and Head of Digital Wholesale Banking at Mashreq, for a candid conversation on how AI, tokenization, and infrastructure transformation are reshaping the banking stack from the inside out.We unpack:- Why "rip and replace" is a myth and what real legacy evolution looks like-How Mashreq is deploying AI across KYC, onboarding, and customer insights-The role of tokenized assets, CBDCs, and smart contracts in wholesale banking- How Neo Ventures is exporting IP and scaling infrastructure beyond capital- Why culture,  not technology, is the biggest barrier to digital transformation

“The right to transact actually precedes all other rights. I hope the Bitcoin community engages in what I think is actually the most important fight that we could possibly wage, is to get inserted into the Bill of Rights of freedom to transact.” In this episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, host Walker America sits down with Kent Halliburton, co-founder of Sazmining, for an eye-opening conversation on Bitcoin mining, KYC-free sats, the future of Bitcoin policy, and why wild sats are the ultimate form of financial freedom. Kent shares his orange-pill journey from rooftop solar to building a mining-as-a-service company that empowers everyday Bitcoiners to mine real, untouched, surveillance-free Bitcoin—without the noise, hassle, or KYC. We dive deep into:

Josh Sigurdson talks with Mark Gonzales about the upcoming BRICS summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on July 6th and 7th of 2025. The latest BRICS summit expects to see the entrance of 44 more countries into the alliance and the calls for a total shift away from the US Dollar into a new world reserve currency system under BRICS+. While Putin cannot attend due to an ICC arrest warrant and Xi cannot attend due to inner problems between China and India, the overall agenda remains in place as the alliance gains more than half the world's population. The power shift was scripted long ago with the west falling to the east. The west of course propped up the east as the inevitable replacement system with a cashless society and a global technocracy as the goal. The 17th BRICS Summit is sure to cause panic among the dollar maximalists but the issue remains the same regardless of the dollar falling to BRICS or not. There will still be a CBDC system as a replacement for the failed world reserve fiat currency as all fiat currencies eventually fail. As we witness a banking crisis, the shift into a depression, a housing crisis, an employment crisis and massive inflation, the replacement system will be a digital ID with rations. That is, if you keep your money in the bank. Russia is launching their mandated digital ID wallet and "WeChat" type application. The UK and European Union are launching their digital ID. The United States and Canada are launching their own digital IDs including corporations like XMoney owned by Elon Musk releasing their own CBDC and digital infrastructure in cooperation with 'Episodesix.' The EU is launching their CBDC by October and the United States has passed the GENIUS Act and the STABLE Act which involves stable coins with KYC as well as the use of this surveillance technology within banks. The whole purpose of crypto in the first place was to avoid the banking system. We are witnessing history and with chaos comes order as wars heat up. This is exactly the scripted move the establishment wanted in the first place. Are you prepared? Stay tuned for more from WAM!

Josh Sigurdson talks with Mark Gonzales about the latest warning by the Federal Reserve which usually avoids making really negative claims about the economy as they say recession is ahead. Fed chair Jerome Powell claims rates will go up alongside Inflation and there will be a shock to the system. When considering this warning, it's almost important to realize the United States just hit 37 trillion dollars in debt and Trump is now spending trillions on his latest bills including $1 trillion alone on the military budget which is the largest in history. The World Bank is also warning of a major economic collapse. It's convenient that simultaneously, 63 central banks are implementing Basel 3 which forces bail-ins to "rescue" failing banks. That means they can take your money out of your account and run. The FDIC is bankrupt so that won't help either. The CBDC is being launched in the European Union by October at the latest according to the ECB and on top of the digital IDs being launched this year, the STABLE Act and GENIUS Act have been launched in the US, essentially creating a KYC based CBDC in the United States as well. According to an IMF paper CBDCs will allow police to collect, store personal data for the surveillance state. AI is taking over via legislation right now just as wars are declared and employment plummets with automation. This is not a coincidence. This is the reset and everyone must get prepared immediately.

On this episode of iGaming Daily, the discussion begins in Malta with the highly debated Bill 55 — a legislative move designed to shield Malta Gaming Authority (MGA)-licensed operators from foreign claims, reinforcing the island's position as Europe's premier iGaming hub. However, this law has sparked legal scrutiny across the EU, with opponents arguing it contradicts European Single Market rules and raises significant competition law concerns under Article 56 of the EU Treaty.Host Charlie Horner is joined by iGaming Experts Editor Joe Streeter and SBC's Media Director Martyn Elliott, reporting live from SBC Summit Malta. Together, they delve into why Bill 55 could face escalation to the European Court of Justice (ECJ) following Austrian legal challenges — and what this means for operators contributing over 11% to Malta's GDP. Shifting focus to the UK market, the trio unpacks the implications of proposed gambling tax hikes, including potential increases to 21% or even 41% as suggested by former Prime Minister Gordon Brown.In this episode, discover why experts warn that aggressive tax changes could unintentionally fuel black market gambling, erode KYC safeguards, and put players at risk. While some regulators dismiss these fears as overstated, industry insiders argue the risk of unlicensed, poorly regulated operations is real.

The act, introduced by Representatives Emmer and Torres, seeks to amend the law so that developers of non-custodial platforms are not subject to KYC and AML requirements. Matt emphasizes the need for the Bitcoin community to pressure Congress to pass the act to prevent potential restrictions on access to innovative wallet technologies in the US. ***** If you enjoy THE Bitcoin Podcast you can help support the show by doing the following: FOLLOW ME (Walker) on @WalkerAmerica on X | @TitcoinPodcast on X | Nostr Personal (walker) | Nostr Podcast (Titcoin) | Instagram

In this episode, Ari Redbord, TRM's Global head of Policy, sits down with Kate Eyerman, Chief Compliance Officer at Blockchain.com, to unpack her unconventional path from the US State Department and Treasury to leading compliance in one of crypto's most dynamic environments.With deep experience in counter-terrorism financing and sanctions policy, Kate brings a policy-informed lens to navigating the evolving risks in the digital asset space.Kate and Ari explore the practical challenges of applying legacy financial compliance standards — like the Travel Rule — to blockchain-based finance, and how a strong foundation of AML and sanctions controls enables innovation. Kate also shares candid reflections on the shift from policy theory to operational reality and why public-private partnerships are more than buzzwords in today's crypto compliance landscape.From developing transaction monitoring protocols to evaluating emerging threats like AI-generated fraud, the emerging impact on AI on compliance and KYC, Kate emphasizes a risk-based approach rooted in mission-driven strategy. She also discusses the importance of educating policymakers, engaging with global regulators, and maintaining an agile compliance posture amid fast-moving technologies.And outside of compliance? Kate takes a risk-based approach to kayaking whitewater rivers — an apt metaphor for navigating crypto compliance in 2025.

//The Wire//2300Z May 16, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: CRYPTOCURRENCY EXCHANGE COINBASE HACKED, CUSTOMER DATA BREACHED. MASS GRAVE SITE FOUND IN MEXICO. CARTEL OBSERVATION POSTS DESTROYED ON USA/MEX BORDER.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Mexico: Earlier this week a mass grave and Cartel corpse processing center was discovered at an abandoned ranch roughly 40 miles west of Guadalajara. The discovery was made by local private citizens attempting to find the bodies of known Cartel victims, and this site had been known to serve in a variety of roles over the years by members of the CJNG Cartel.AC: This site is not a new revelation; a hostage recovery operation was conducted at this exact compound last year. This ranch was formerly used as a hitman training site, but over the years was relegated to serving as an extermination camp. As this was a well known site, there was some speculation that the compound had probably been used as burial site as well. Because local authorities were not interested in investigating this, a small group of local citizens gained access to the compound to search for human remains, of which many were found. Local authorities (which have now been forced to acknowledge the site), have urged local citizens to help identify the clothing found in six mass graves found at the site. Due to the high-profile nature of this discovery, civil unrest has been reported throughout several cities in Mexico, as citizens express dissatisfaction with the Cartels engaging in this kind of brutality on an industrial scale.-HomeFront-Arizona: Two Cartel-affiliated Observation Posts were destroyed yesterday morning. The first OP was located west of Ajo, and the second was located near Nogales.Washington D.C. - Scandal has emerged surrounding a post made by former FBI Director James Comey, in which he posted a photo on Instagram that contained a threatening reference commonly used as a coded incitement of violence against President Trump. Comey posted a photo containing the numbers "8647", which has become a term very commonly used by malign actors in the United States to express their desire to "86" (or dispose of) the 47th President, Donald Trump. James Comey has since removed the post and stated that he did not know what it meant.USA: Another major scandal has emerged regarding a major cryptocurrency exchange failing to protect customer data. A few days ago Coinbase (arguably the biggest crypto exchange in the world) announced that they had been hacked. The hackers claimed to have accessed most private customer data on the site, and have demanded $20 million as a ransom for not posting this information on the internet.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: This morning, statements from Coinbase and the CEO have shed light on what really happened...and it doesn't look good. In short, Coinbase outsourced their customer support services to the Third World. As it turns out, when you hire employees from an impoverished nation and pay them peanuts while giving them unchecked access to private customer information...they might be inclined to accept a bribe to leak that data. Right now, this appears to be what happened. American politicians are also not entirely off the hook for this scandal either. The reason that there is so much data to steal in the first place is due to KYC or "Know Your Customer" laws that make privacy illegal. Many people who are not involved in the world of cryptocurrency do not know that it's not an anonymous experience by any means...buying and selling crypto is the hard part since 100% of crypto exchanges based in the United States and Europe have to abide by KYC laws that force customers to hand over their drivers license, bank account numbers, social security number, home address, IRS tax information, a series of selfie photos or a 3d scan of a person's head...pretty much all of t
