In this conversation, May Zabaneh breaks down PayPal's move into stablecoins with PYUSD and why it matters for financial inclusion. We explore how PYUSD could lower costs for cross-border payments, deliver faster settlement, and plug directly into PayPal's existing ecosystem.

Tom Alford (TMI) speaks with Tory Hinton (Northern Trust Asset Management) to discuss findings of the 2025 Global Treasury Investments Survey, which collated insights from over 300 treasurers. They examine why liquidity remains a dominant concern, along with the rise of MMF adoption, evolving investment policies, and the growing necessity of technology and tokenisation. Tory outlines the report's key takeaways, from the demand for instant access to cash to the widening divide between digitally advanced treasuries and those slower to innovate. The conversation also highlights emerging trends and offers practical guidance on turning insights into meaningful action.

PREVIEW. AI, Corporate Staffing Reduction, and Consumer Liquidity Issues Threatening a Recession. Chris Riegel discusses how while AI contributes to corporate staff reduction (e.g., IBM), financial results from quick service restaurants like Chipotle indicate consumer challenges. Specifically, younger consumers are financially strained, leading to negative results and consumers trading down. This problem with consumer liquidity represents early signs of what could become a nasty recession, though its progression is unknown. Retry

Payment chains are heating up. Not every “stablecoin chain” is playing the same game. Codex cofounder and CEO Haonan Li joins David to map the real landscape: what neutrality looks like in practice, why the bottleneck isn't TPS but fiat-to-stable friction, and how on-chain FX could pull global flows. We dig into the Bear-Chain incentive trap. Why Codex chose to build as an Ethereum L2. The case for app-specific rollups that return value to ETH. And the growing split between projects that bundle value toward Ethereum and those that pull it away. ---

Welcome back to the EUVC Podcast — where we go deep with the people shaping European venture.Today, David sits down with Kristaps Ronis, Partner at ION Pacific, a global secondaries investor (HQ in LA, presence in Europe & Asia) focused on Series B+ tech and a specialty that's getting hotter by the month: structured secondaries.Kristaps runs ION Pacific's European practice and has been with the firm since inception (2015). In this episode, he unpacks why DPI is king, why traditional “sell-the-shares” secondaries often fall short, and how structured deals can deliver liquidity without selling or signaling — all while preserving control and upside for GPs.Whether you're a GP under LP pressure, an LP looking for distributions, or a founder trying to understand what's happening around your cap table, this one's for you.Here's what's covered:00:55 – Who is ION Pacific? Global secondaries focused on B/C/D with a European practice led by Kristaps.02:36 – What they do: Liquidity for venture via structured & traditional secondaries.04:01 – Kristaps' path: Latvia → Peking University → Hong Kong banking → co-founding ION Pacific.06:05 – What are structured secondaries (in one line).07:35 – Three big learnings in venture: lack of financial innovation, complex cap tables = silent killer, DPI is king.10:48 – Early vs. later stage instruments — why complexity hits hard post-Series B.17:16 – Why secondaries now (esp. in Europe): DPI pressure, awareness, more dedicated players.21:09 – Continuation vehicles in Europe: “2025 is the year of the EU CV.”23:31 – Where structured deals fit: liquidity without selling, pricing gaps, zero market signaling.26:20 – “What's the catch?” Educating LPs on partial upfront + future upside.28:05 – Advice for GPs & LPs: how to open the liquidity conversation.29:53 – Solving the bid–ask spread: structure beats headline discounts.31:27 – Co-investing: where others join (and where they don't).32:26 – The market gap: too big for small PE secondaries, too small for mega funds — ION's sweet spot.35:55 – Timing: don't start in year 11 of a 10+2 fund; think 6–9 months ahead.36:58 – Seller mistakes: timing, portfolio prep, governance blockers, LP comms.40:23 – Good news for emerging managers: relationships can reopen info rights.43:37 – Kristaps' bookshelf: The One Thing, Getting to Neutral, Buy Back Your Time.45:23 – How to reach Kristaps: LinkedIn + email; open to being a sounding board.

The stock market bubble is going to pop! And we're going to tell you when. In today's episode we discuss that price is the ultimate indicator of market truth. Charts, narratives, and data often distort reality, while price alone reflects what investors truly believe. Don't overcomplicate investing with speculative indicators, fear-based "chart crimes," and emotional herd behavior, especially in areas like AI stocks that echo the dot-com bubble. Fundamentals and narratives often mislead, while disciplined attention to price direction and risk management yields better results. We discuss...  Price is the purest and most reliable truth in markets, capturing the collective judgment of all participants and filtering out misleading narratives. Investors often get trapped by "chart crimes," forcing technical patterns or trends that confirm what they want to see rather than what the market is actually showing. Investors often believe that deeper analysis means better insight, but in truth, simplicity and clarity around price direction outperform complex models. There are strong parallels between the current AI investment boom and the late-1990s dot-com bubble. Euphoric narratives around transformative technologies tend to overinflate valuations before reality catches up. AI enthusiasm is driving herd behavior, where investors fear missing out on perceived "once-in-a-lifetime" gains, leading to speculative excess and distorted valuations. Most investors misjudge risk, confusing volatility with opportunity, and failing to respect the message that price declines are often early warnings of deeper structural problems. There are under-appreciated risks building in private markets, especially private credit and private equity, which have grown rapidly outside the scope of traditional regulation. Private credit lacks transparency, liquidity, and oversight, creating potential systemic vulnerabilities if credit conditions tighten or defaults rise. In contrast, regulated banks, though unpopular, are more transparent and stress-tested, making them safer in relative terms despite their public scrutiny. Investors chasing yield in private markets are ignoring the lessons of past crises, mistaking the illusion of stability for real safety. Liquidity is an often-overlooked advantage, allowing investors to act decisively when market conditions change instead of being trapped in illiquid positions. Stay grounded in simplicity, price truth, and discipline, avoid the noise of narratives, the allure of complexity, and the comfort of consensus thinking.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/stock-market-bubble-761

The estate's executors have repeatedly told courts and the administrators of the victims' compensation fund that the estate lacks sufficient liquid cash to promptly pay all claims and legal obligations. For example, in early 2021 the administrators of the victims' fund paused new payments after being notified the estate “did not have sufficient liquidity to fully satisfy” further compensation requests.The root of the claimed challenge is that while the estate holds substantial illiquid or hard-to-value assets (real estate, trusts, offshore holdings), large sums have already been paid out in settlements and fees, leaving limited readily accessible funds. At the same time, the valuations of major assets (such as his Manhattan townhouse and the Caribbean islands) have either dropped or remain under court-supervision, meaning converting assets to cash quickly is complicated and constrained by legal, tax and trust structures.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

It's easy to feel confused these days.With the stock market at all-time highs, some analysts predict this bull market has a lot longer to run as the busiiness-friendly policies of the new Administration start adding tailwinds to the economy.Others see economic growth as imbalanced, at best, and worry that overall the trend for 2026 is downwards, risking recession and a material market correction.So, which is it?For guidance, we turn to highly-respected economist & award-winning researcher David Rosenberg, founder & president of Rosenberg Research.David concludes the market is in a major price bubble not unlike the DotCom era, and advises investors to build/maintain liquidity within (at least) part of their portfolio in order to weather the bubble's bursting as well as to have dry powder to deploy at attractive valuations when it does.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?
