In this episode of Season 2, A. Valerie Mirko, Partner at Armstrong Teasdale LLP and leader of the firm's Securities Regulation and Litigation Practice, joins William Nelson, Director of Public Policy and Associate General Counsel at the Investment Adviser Association, for a timely discussion with David Adams, Member at Mintz, on the evolving world of crypto assets. As crypto moves further into the mainstream, investment advisers and broker-dealers face both new opportunities and heightened regulatory scrutiny. The conversation covers how the SEC and FINRA currently view crypto—from memecoins and mining to stablecoins—and what to expect from upcoming SEC rulemaking over the next 6–12 months. The episode also explores how advisers are using crypto today, whether as investment products, portfolio diversifiers, or tokenized assets, and examines the fiduciary-duty challenges that come with digital assets. On the compliance front, the discussion highlights how firms can prepare for examinations and enforcement, with special attention to custody - the top concern for many advisers. Finally, the group looks ahead with practical guidance for advisers and broker-dealers considering crypto products, offering insights to help navigate this fast-changing landscape.Past Episodes of this Series:Corp Fin in Flux: What the SEC's Latest Moves Mean for Issuers and Investors (8/13/25)AI in the Investment Adviser Industry (7/16/25) Harnessing AI: What Attorneys and Financial Industry Professionals Need to Know (6/18/25)SEC Leadership, Crypto Policy, and FINRAs Regulatory Refresh (5/21/25)New Leadership, New Priorities: Paul Atkins at the SEC (4/23/25)How the New Administration and Congress Will Shape the SEC (3/26/25)Reflecting on 30 years of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act (2/26/25)Insights on SEC Transition and Policy Priorities with Pete Driscoll (2/5/25)Please note, the positions and opinions expressed by the speakers are strictly their own, and do not necessarily represent the views of their employers, nor those of the D.C.

De nieuwe Solana Seeker staat centraal in deze aflevering van de Cryptocast, met Geale Simon Postma te gast. Geale Simon is fervent gebruiker van Solana en ambassadeur van de Solflare wallet, ook is hij contentmaker op Eyekon. De Seeker volgt de Solana Saga op, die aanvankelijk weinig aandacht kreeg maar later bekender werd door de airdrops die gekoppeld waren aan het toestel. Volgens gebruikers moet de Seeker meer zijn dan een gewone Android-telefoon. De hardware is speciaal ontworpen om cryptotoepassingen soepel te laten draaien, met functies die elders nog niet beschikbaar zijn. Toch is het beeld gemengd. Binnen het Solana-ecosysteem lijkt er veel enthousiasme, maar daarbuiten wordt de telefoon gezien als een soort prototype. Ook de techmedia hebben er nauwelijks aandacht aan besteed, wat vragen oproept over het succes op de langere termijn. De cryptofuncties van de telefoon zijn het belangrijkste verkoopargument. In de kern zit de Seed Vault, een beveiligde manier om private keys op te slaan, die zelfs kan dienen als alternatief voor een hardware wallet. Daarnaast biedt de Seeker ID een manier om publieke adressen te vervangen en is er sprake van een nieuw SKR-token. Daarover is nog weinig duidelijk, want een whitepaper ontbreekt. Wel staat vast dat airdrops opnieuw een rol spelen. Gebruikers krijgen toegang tot exclusieve uitgiftes van nieuwe tokens en projecten. Ook de decentrale app-store is een opvallend element, zeker nu Europese regels de mogelijkheden van bestaande platforms steeds meer beperken. De vraag blijft of de telefoon zonder crypto-element bestaansrecht heeft. Veel functies zouden in theorie ook naar andere toestellen gebracht kunnen worden. Voorlopig lijkt het model van Solana vooral te leunen op de combinatie van hardware en beloningen. Dat blijkt ook uit andere plannen in het ecosysteem. Zo wordt gewerkt aan een spelcomputer, de PSG1, die eveneens airdrops als lokkertje gebruikt. Daarnaast verschijnen er steeds meer producten rond het netwerk, zoals de Solflare-creditcard. Ondertussen is er ook ruimte voor kritiek. Memecoins spelen nog altijd een grote rol binnen Solana, maar de waarde van veel projecten zakt weg. Dat Donald Trump zijn eigen memecoin op Solana lanceerde, zorgde weliswaar voor veel aandacht, maar roept ook vragen op. Moet de gemeenschap zich niet meer richten op duurzame toepassingen in plaats van snelle hype? Het laat zien hoe breed de discussie in het ecosysteem is, tussen technologische innovatie en kortetermijnspeculatie. Co-host is Jacob Boersma, onafhankelijk blockchain-expert.

Die Kryptologen Lukas Leys und Alex Kirchmaier melden sich heute in einer Konferenz-Schaltung zwischen Südtirol und Wien bei euch, um die neuesten Entwicklungen am Krypto-Markt zu besprechen. Und zwar folgende:
Altcoin froth meets political theater. The team dissects World Liberty Financial's explosive debut: a $22B token backed by the Trump family, a disputed Aave partnership, insider buybacks, and a “gold paper” instead of a whitepaper. We break down Justin Sun's role, why critics call it crypto's “garbage moat,” and how WLFi could become the Thanksgiving dinner debate of 2025. Plus: Gavin Newsom's meme coin tease, GDP data going on-chain, and the CFTC reopening U.S. markets to global exchanges. 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. This week, the crew dives into the wild debut of World Liberty Financial — Trump's $22B DeFi token that launched with a “gold paper,” insider allocations, and buybacks despite no product. We break down the Trump family's $5B paper fortune, the disputed Aave deal, and whether WLFi is a serious stablecoin project or just another garbage fire in crypto's moat. From Justin Sun's backing to Thanksgiving dinner debates, we unpack what WLFi means for politics, memes, and markets. Then we zoom out to Gavin Newsom's meme coin tease, the U.S. Commerce Department posting GDP on-chain, and fresh CFTC moves that could reshape crypto exchanges and ETFs. Show highlights

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop sits down with Juan Samitier, co-founder of DAMM Capital, for a wide-ranging conversation on decentralized insurance, treasury management, and the evolution of finance on-chain. Together they explore the risks of smart contracts and hacks, the role of insurance in enabling institutional capital to enter crypto, and historical parallels from Amsterdam's spice trade to Argentina's corralito. The discussion covers stablecoins like DAI, MakerDAO's USDS, and the collapse of Luna, as well as the dynamics of yield, black swan events, and the intersection of DeFi with AI, prediction markets, and tokenized assets. You can find Juan on Twitter at @JuanSamitier and follow DAMM Capital at @DAMM_Capital.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:05 Stewart Alsop introduces Juan Samitier, who shares his background in asset management and DeFi, setting up the conversation on decentralized insurance.00:10 They discuss Safu, the insurance protocol Juan designed, and why hedging smart contract risk is key for asset managers deploying capital in DeFi.00:15 The focus shifts to hacks, audits, and why even fully audited code can still fail, bringing up historical parallels to ships, pirates, and early insurance models.00:20 Black swan events, risk models, and the limits of statistics are explored, along with reflections on Wolfram's ideas and the Ascent of Money.00:25 They examine how TradFi is entering crypto, the dominance of centralized stablecoins, and regulatory pushes like the Genius Act.00:30 DAI's design, MakerDAO's USDS, and Luna's collapse are explained, tying into the Great Depression, Argentina's corralito, and trust in money.00:35 Juan recounts his path from high school trading shitcoins to managing Kleros' treasury, while Stewart shares parallels with dot-com bubbles and Webvan.00:40 The conversation turns to tokenized assets, lending markets, and why stablecoin payments may be DeFi's Trojan horse for TradFi adoption.00:45 They explore interest rates, usury, and Ponzi dynamics, comparing Luna's 20% yields with unsustainable growth models in tech and crypto.00:50 Airdrops, VC-funded incentives, and short-term games are contrasted with building long-term financial infrastructure on-chain.00:55 Stewart brings up crypto as Venice in 1200, leading into reflections on finance as an information system, the rise of AI, and DeFi agents.01:00 Juan explains tokenized hedge funds, trusted execution environments, and prediction markets, ending with the power of conditional markets and the future of betting on beliefs.Key InsightsOne of the biggest risks in decentralized finance isn't just market volatility but the fragility of smart contracts. Juan Samitier emphasized that even with million-dollar audits, no code can ever be guaranteed safe, which is why hedging against hacks is essential for asset managers who want institutional capital to enter crypto.Insurance has always been about spreading risk, from 17th century spice ships facing pirates to DeFi protocols facing hackers. The same logic applies today: traders and treasuries are willing to sacrifice a small portion of yield to ensure that catastrophic losses won't wipe out their entire investment.Black swan events expose the limits of financial models, both in traditional finance and crypto. Juan pointed out that while risk models try to account for extreme scenarios, including every possible tail risk makes insurance math break down—a tension that shows why decentralized insurance is still early but necessary.Stablecoins emerged as crypto's attempt to recreate the dollar, but their design choices determine resilience. MakerDAO's DAI and USDS use overcollateralization for stability, while Luna's algorithmic model collapsed under pressure. These experiments mirror historical monetary crises like the Great Depression and Argentina's corralito, reminding us that trust in money is fragile.Argentina's history of inflation and government-imposed bank freezes makes its citizens uniquely receptive to crypto. Samitier explained that even people without financial training understand macroeconomic risks because they live with them daily, which helps explain why Argentina has some of the world's highest adoption of stablecoins and DeFi tools.The path to mainstream DeFi adoption may lie in the intersection of tokenized real-world assets, lending markets, and stablecoin payments. TradFi institutions are already asking how retail users access cheaper loans on-chain, showing that DeFi's efficiency could become the Trojan horse that pulls traditional finance deeper into crypto rails.Looking forward, the fusion of AI with DeFi may transform finance into an information-driven ecosystem. Trusted execution environments, prediction markets, and conditional markets could allow agents to trade on beliefs and probabilities with transparency, blending deterministic blockchains with probabilistic AI—a glimpse of what financial Venice in the information age might look like.

Is crypto just hype, or the foundation of the next financial revolution? Brett Rentmeester, Founder and Managing Director at WindRock Wealth Management, joins Maggie Lake to reveal why he's been investing in crypto for over a decade, and why he believes we're only in the early innings of this transformation. In this interview, Brett breaks down the four key categories of crypto—from Bitcoin's role as a digital store of value to decentralized finance (DeFi), fast-growing consumer platforms like Solana, and the explosive potential of AI-powered blockchain networks. He also shares why tokenized assets and stablecoins could permanently change how money moves.
Donald Trump sorgte bereits im Vorfeld seiner Wahl zum US-Präsidenten für Euphorie unter Krypto-Freunden. Grund: Er versprach, den Bitcoin als US-Staatsreserve einzusetzen. Was ist aus diesen Plänen geworden? Welche Entwicklungen gibt es hierbei? Außerdem: Die Auflage von Bitcoin-ETFs in den USA sorgte dafür, dass die Nachfrage die Produktionsmenge um ein Vielfaches übersteigt. Daneben gehen wir der Frage nach, ob Bitcoin bereits den Status eines sicheren Hafens hat. Des Weiteren hält Bernhard Wenger, Nordeuropa-Chef von 21Shares, eine weitere Kryptowährung für äußerst spannend: Solana. Erfahre also, weshalb Solana weit mehr ist als die Technik hinter Meme Coins. ++++++++ Bereit für den besten Portfolio Tracker Deutschlands? Der neue Portfolio Tracker von extraETF ist live.

Today's Headlines: Israel launched missile strikes on Syria's military HQ in Damascus, potentially destabilizing the new Syrian government amid talks to normalize relations. Despite the Trump administration's request to hold back, Israel is sending more troops to the border, citing threats to the Druze community. Meanwhile, Trump hosted Bahrain's crown prince, who pledged $17 billion in U.S. investments—though details were vague, aside from a symbolic model airplane. Trump also denied plans to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell, despite telling Republicans otherwise, and floated the Fed's over-budget HQ renovations as a possible excuse. Separately, the administration fired federal prosecutor Maurene Comey—daughter of James Comey—who had handled the Epstein, Maxwell, and Diddy cases, offering no clear reason. Trump mocked his own supporters who believe Epstein conspiracy theories, calling them “weaklings,” while still refusing to release promised files. And in two more Trump-world twists: DHS deported five migrants to Eswatini, an African country none of them were from, and federal agents arrested nine anti-ICE protesters in Spokane. Lastly, $100 million worth of Trump memecoins are unlocking today, padding the president's net worth. Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: Axios: Israel bombs Syrian capital despite U.S. pressure to "stand down" Bloomberg: Bahrain's PM Vows $17 Billion US Investment During Trump Meeting NBC News: Trump says it's 'highly unlikely' he will fire Fed Chair Powell after broaching idea with GOP reps Axios: Trump says Fed renovations issue might be fireable for Powell WaPo: DOJ fires Maurene Comey, prosecutor involved in Epstein, Diddy cases AP News: Trump slams his own supporters as 'weaklings' for falling for what he now calls the Epstein 'hoax' Axios: DHS sends migrants to Eswatini in new 3rd-country deportation Seattle Time: Federal government accuses nine Spokane protesters of violence against ICE Bloomberg: Trump Memecoin Unlock To Test Crypto Demand Morning Announcements is produced by Sami Sage and edited by Grace Hernandez-Johnson Learn more about your ad choices.

Note: this episode originally published on 02/11/25. A lot of things are changing. And there's a lot of things that the new White House administration wants to do differently. One of the areas where we've seen a lot of attention is cryptocurrency. Some of the latest developments are pretty confounding, to say the least. Lucky for us, our guest this week has spent years following crypto. Zeke Faux is a reporter for Bloomberg News and the author of “Number Go Up: Inside Crypto's Wild Rise and Staggering Fall.” He joins WITHpod to discuss some of the latest developments in cryptocurrency, concerns about the government purchasing it, Trump memecoins and more.

Crypto isn't just recovering, it's evolving. Christopher Perkins, President of CoinFund, joins Wealthion's Maggie Lake to explain why we're entering a new era of digital finance. They break down the rise of stablecoins (which could drive $2T in Treasury demand), the tokenization of real-world assets (from stocks to real estate), and why U.S. regulatory clarity is unleashing a wave of institutional adoption. Plus, how meme coins ironically paved the way for capital formation, and why fixed income in crypto could be the next big thing. Whether you're holding Bitcoin, exploring Ethereum, or just crypto-curious, this interview offers a rare inside look at what's coming next and how to position yourself for it.

In this episode, Laura and Kevin sit down with Bob Bodily, founder of Odin.fun, to talk about the wild ride of memecoins, Bitcoin's evolving role in the crypto ecosystem, and what the future might hold for decentralized tech. Bob breaks down how Odin.fun is rethinking the Bitcoin experience, from instant token creation to a gasless, wallet-agnostic interface that's pulling in tens of thousands of users.We discuss the growing risks in crypto including wallet drains, scams, and design flaws, and ask what platforms can do to protect users without killing the fun. Bob shares his thoughts on whether the rise of meme-driven platforms is a cultural shift or just another hype cycle, and weighs in on Bitcoin's potential to support more complex applications without abandoning its core stability.There's also plenty of banter: Laura's optimism, Kevin's crypto skepticism, and Bob's grounded take on what's real, what's broken, and what could be next. Whether you're a degenerate trader or just crypto-curious, this one gives you a smart, honest look at what's going on under the hood.Bob Bodily is the founder of Odin.fun, which pioneered instant memecoin creation and trading on Bitcoin and offers 2-second finality.With Odin.fun, Bob has shown what's possible with Bitcoin and helped silence the narrative that the network isn't fast enough. After the first two months of operation, the platform amassed more than 60K users, 3000+ BTC in trading volume, and 15k+ tokens created, with 150+ hitting bonded status. Unlike Solana's model, Odin.fun offers a gasless experience through chain abstraction tech, enables logins with any Bitcoin wallet, and uses a single-canister system to streamline operations. It's a fresh take on Bitcoin's capabilities, hinting at the broader potential for programmability on the network, which Bob can highlight to underscore the capabilities of the Bitcoin-native Layer 0 interoperability protocol.

Tonight, Donald Trump goes where no president has gone before: to an invite-only dinner for investors in a cryptocurrency bearing his name. The unprecedented event is the latest in a pile of entanglements that raise serious questions about palm-greasing and profiteering — from deals for Trump-branded golf courses to the $400 million jet Qatar gifted to the administration for use as Air Force One. Playbook managing editor and author Jack Blanchard digs into it all with contributing author Adam Wren. Plus, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. releases its first MAHA Commission report, and the House GOP's mammoth megabill takes a big step forward.
Brian Q from Santiment joined me to review Bitcoin's pump to new all time highs and Altcoins such as XRP, Ethereum, and Solana.

The crew also debates ETH's monetary identity, HyperLiquid's EVM ambitions, and whether Ethereum can reassert itself as crypto's dominant tech and cultural platform.

It's a tale about how a chance encounter can lead to fame and fortune. But also how all that can spin wildly out of control in this brave, new – kind of terrifying – attention economy we're all living in.
