Jordi Visser is a macro investor with over 30 years of Wall Street experience. He also writes a Substack called “VisserLabs” and puts out investing YouTube videos. In this conversation, we unpack the Fed's interest rate cuts, the U.S.–China trade dynamic, and what they signal for global markets. We also dive into the Bitcoin, AI, and tokenized assets — explaining how these forces, alongside Tesla's innovations, are shaping the next major investment cycle.======================Check out my NEW show for daily bite-sized breakdowns of the biggest stories in finance, technology, and politics: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://pompdesk.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠======================This episode is brought to you by Figure (⁠https://figuremarkets.co/pomp⁠), the platform to Earn and Borrow.

Bitcoin hit $116K before $3.45 billion in liquidations while stablecoins transferred a record $15.6 trillion with bots executing 70% of that volume. Host Tedd Huff, CEO of Voalyre, and BakerHostetler Partner Robert Musiala break down what happened in crypto this month and why it matters to your business now. The SEC issued two major no action letters creating roadmaps for DePIN networks and state bank custody while Treasury opened a 58 question comment period closing October 20th on Genius Act implementation. The Wolfsburg Group published global AML guidance requiring banks to know their customer's customer when serving stablecoin issuers as nine European banks formed a consortium to launch a MICA compliant Euro stablecoin by 2026. Market fragmentation accelerates as purpose built stablecoins target specific communities while USDT and USDC slip to 84% combined share despite growing absolute volumes. Security threats remain the biggest adoption risk even as regulatory clarity emerges. Learn the five moves compliance and product teams should make today: display fees before sends, segment use cases by ecosystem, publish clear redemption rules, run cross chain incident drills, and build a one page control map that speeds both sales cycles and audits. If you manage risk, product, or finance in payments or crypto, this episode gives you the regulatory context and practical steps to act without waiting for Congress.LINKSConfidential Informant:Robert A.

In this episode, Yitzy is joined by Yehuda Lindell—founder of Unbound Security (acquired by Coinbase), longtime professor and one of the earliest researchers in secure multiparty computation (MPC). We trace his journey from Australia to Israel and from theory to industry, then dive into how Coinbase secures customer assets using layered cryptography: MPC, secure enclaves, HSMs, cold elements, and rigorous review processes. Yehuda explains MPC in plain English (with a great DNA example), why “defense-in-depth” beats any single fortress, how insider threats are modeled, and what Coinbase's production bar looks like. We also talk CS education in the age of AI, and why students should learn to program with AI rather than fear it. Yehuda closes with a pointer to CB-MPC, Coinbase's open-source MPC engine, and a broader call for rigor when turning cryptography papers into production systems.Resources and Links:Yehuda on LI: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yehudalindell/ Yehuda on X: https://x.com/LindellYehudaCoinbase's CB-MPC library: https://github.com/coinbase/cb-mpc Timestamps:00:00 — Intro & Yehuda's background05:43 — What is cryptography (for non-experts)16:00 — MPC 101 (privacy, correctness, shard thresholds)19:36 — Real-world key splitting; surviving full IT compromise23:38 — Coinbase's defense-in-depth philosophy24:34 — What secure enclaves are (and side-channel realities)28:52 — Cold elements, cross-domain guards, layered participants31:31 — Coinbase's production bar & independent reviews35:54 — CS, AI, and training “with” AI41:59 — CB-MPC and parting advice

2016 eingestiegen, 2018 vollständig übernommen: Die Familie Nürnberg um Vater Alexander – u.a. bekannt als ehemaliger Geschäftsführer von Hatlapa und Macgregor –, sowie die Söhne Vincent, Martin und Paul bauen „ihre“ Reederei O.S. Energy in Glückstadt mit neuen Aktivitäten und neuen (eigenen) Schiffen sukzessive auf und aus. In der Episode erläutern Alexander und Vincent Nürnberg ausführlich und exklusiv die Entwicklung und ihre Hintergründe, den Finanzrahmen für Neubauten sowie die Pläne für die Zukunft. Vincent Nürnberg bringt u.a. Erfahrungen "von Bord" und aus dem Reedereibetrieb ein, Vater Alexander („ich war 58 Jahre alt, als ich aus der Zulieferindustrie auf die Reederei-Seite wechselte“) hat in seiner Karriere Expertise in den Bereichen Restrukturierung und Wachstumsfinanzierung gesammelt. Mittlerweile ist das Unternehmen mit einer Flotte von 15 und drei Standorten in Europa in einer wachsenden Palette von Dienstleistungen aktiv, etwa Umweltmonitoring für Windparks, Vermessungsarbeiten oder Sprengstofferkundung. Im Gespräch erläutert Vincent Nürnberg dies näher – auch, wie die Reederei mit der Bundeswehr zusammenarbeitet. Nicht zuletzt geht es darum, ob man sich weitere Geschäftsfelder oder andere Schiffstypen für die eigene Reederei vorstellen kann. Aktuell läuft eine Neubau-Serie in Dänemark. Vincent Nürnberg begründet den Schritt und spricht über eine „evolutionäre Weiterentwicklung der Flotte“. Dabei ist die Hamburger Schifffahrts- und Finanzgruppe MPC Capital ein sehr wichtiger Partner. Weitere Projekte sollen folgen, wie im Gespräch deutlich wird. Außerdem sind weitere Investoren dabei. In der Episode kommen die Nürnbergs auch auf den konkreten Baupreis sowie eine europaweite Ausschreibung zu sprechen. Die Frage, ob es leicht sei, für solche Projekte Finanzierungspartner zu finden, beantwortet Alexander Nürnberg allerdings mit „Nein“ und begründet dies auch ausführlich. Nicht zuletzt geht es auch die Arbeitsaufteilung und Kompetenzen der Familienmitglieder, internationale Expansion und Märkte, die man ganz bewusst meidet, die Kombination verschiedener Schiffstypen, den Wettbewerb unter Offshore-Reedern, teil-autonome Schiffseinsätze und den finanziellen Vorteil für den Endverbraucher, also den Stromkunden.

Hay voces como ceibas que, con sólo dejarse escuchar, son Cuba en cualquier rincón del planeta. Celia Cruz es una de ellas. Una mujer con voz de ceiba frondosa y altura de palma. Más cubana, imposible. Y es que hay en la majestuosa altura de las palmas una esencia poderosa, la de contemplar desde lo alto todo lo que el implacable tiempo se lleva, incluídos a quienes no la honran ni la merecen. Asomándonos a su centenario, es un gusto volver a la hondura de su huella universal. Nacida en La Habana el 21 de octubre de 1925, con mucho sentimiento y verdad, representando lo más genuino de nuestra cultura en todos los escenarios posibles, completó una de las trayectorias artísticas más luminosas de la música popular cubana. Parte de su inmenso legado sonoro nos acompaña hoy, así como las valiosas palabras de la investigadora y escritora Rosa Marquetti. Con dos magníficos trabajos: "Celia Cruz en Cuba, 1925-1962" y, más recientemente, "Celia en el mundo", Rosa ha recorrido minuciosamente la obra de vida de "La Guarachera de Cuba", reafirmando la solidez de su carrera artística y, al mismo tiempo, develandonos la humanidad de una mujer de legado universal. Celia ya era una leyenda de la MPC a comienzos de los años 60. Durante la década anterior había conquistado los más variados escenarios junto al conjunto "Sonora Matancera" y otras agrupaciones de importancia. Ya en los primeros 70 comenzó a ser una de las figuras más visibles de la llamada "salsa". Con su voz clara y potente, gracia y sabor únicos, continuó defendiendo los más raigales géneros de su tierra: la guaracha, el guaguancó, el son montuno, la conga y el bolero que, entre muchos otros, y a la par de otros ritmos del Caribe y Latinoamérica, encontraron siempre en el poderío de su voz abrigo inigualable. Dos temas cruciales en la discografia de Celia de comienzos de la década de los 80, resonando con su pensamiento democrático y progresista. Del cubano Titi Soto: "Latinos en Estados Unidos" y del boricua Tite Cure: "Isadora Duncan". Unos minutos en tiempo de bolero. Celia Cruz, con la complicidad de Pete Conde Rodríguez y Cheo Feliciano, nos devuelve : "Preferí perderte" de Ángel Lores, y "Encantado de la vida" , de Justi Barreto. "Vieja Luna" y "No me hables de amor" de los pianistas Orlando de la Rosa y Ñico Cevedo. Como una autentica diosa, a cien años de su natalicio, Celia Cruz repite la proeza de cantar cada día mejor. "La Guarachera de Cuba", la "Reina Rumba", o "La Reina de la Salsa" fueron títulos que espontáneamente le concedió el público de todas las latitudes. El mismo al que cautivó en cada una de sus presentaciones, entregando alma y corazón al conjuro del más dulce, vibrante y encendido grito de batalla: "Azúcar...." El guitarrista, arreglista y compositor Pavel Urkiza nos acerca un formidable homenaje a Celia: "La bandera que canta".

Building a successful fintech consulting firm without venture capital requires more than industry knowledge. It demands a willingness to sacrifice, a clear understanding of what customers need, and the ability to treat compliance as a commercial function rather than a cost center.Tedd Huff founder & CEO of Voalyre a fintech advisory firm sits down with Jas Randhawa, founder and CEO of Strategybrix, a compliance consulting firm that serves high-growth fintechs, exchanges, and partner banks. The discussion covers the hard lessons learned from bootstrapping, the common mistakes fintech founders make, and why approaching compliance strategically can unlock growth rather than block it. Jas spent over 20 years working with major banks like Citibank, JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank, and HSBC. His background as a computer science engineer gave him an inside view of how compliance systems work, from KYC and onboarding to transaction monitoring and fraud detection.Takeaways:1️⃣ Prepare budget negotiations with specific numbers and risk examples so you walk in ready to win.2️⃣ Replace compliance roadblocks with conditions for approval that define the guardrails needed to say yes safely.3️⃣ Audit your onboarding flow against competitors to remove unnecessary friction that causes customer drop-off.4️⃣ Create a one-page explainer showing how your AI compliance tools process data and produce outputs for regulators.5️⃣ Build a trusted advisor network and schedule calls this week to validate major hiring and spending decisions.Links:Jas Randhawa: https://www.linkedin.com/in/randhawajasStrategybrix: https://www.strategybrix.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/strategybrixFintech Confidential:Podcast: https://fintechconfidential.com/listenNewsletter: https://fintechconfidential.com/accessLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/fintechconfidentialX: https://x.com/FTconfidentialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/fintechconfidentialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/fintechconfidentialSupporters:Under: Streamlines application and underwriting with digital form processing. https://under.io/ftcSkyflow: Zero-trust data privacy vaults as an API to collect, secure, and tokenize personal information while keeping compliance and usability. https://skyflowsecure.comDfns: Wallets as a service with API-first, multi-chain design secured with MPC; powers crypto payments across 50+ networks. https://fintechconfidential.com/dfnsHawk AI: Real-time screening, ML monitoring, and dynamic customer risk ratings to strengthen fraud and financial-crime prevention. https://gethawkai.comAbout:Jas Randhawa is the Managing Partner at StrategyBRIX, a boutique Risk and Compliance Consulting firm.

Trust remains the biggest barrier to crypto adoption. Security breaches, lost access, and the fear of irreversible mistakes keep 79% of users demanding better protection before they'll fully commit to crypto.In this episode, I speak with Anthony Yeung, Chief Commercial Officer at CoinCover, the leader in digital asset protection, and we answer the critical question: How can FinTechs build crypto products that users actually trust?Anthony shares insights on the real risks FinTech leaders need to understand when building crypto offerings, the layered protection approach that top institutions use, and why traditional banking security just doesn't transfer to the crypto world.

The UK economy presents a mixed outlook as the Bank of England (“BoE”) remains cautious about inflation persistence. Monetary Policy Committee (“MPC”) member Catherine Mann warned of clear upside risks to inflation and advocated maintaining tight policy, while fellow MPC member Megan Greene argued closer EU ties could boost productivity and ease price pressures. Chief Economist Huw Pill signalled a slower pace of easing amid uncertain shocks, and Governor Andrew Bailey faced scrutiny over policy direction at global meetings. Economic data were uneven, with unemployment rising to 4.8% and wage growth easing slightly, while gross domestic product rose 0.1% in August. Retail sales and consumer sentiment softened as household costs remained high, and grocery inflation accelerated to 5.2%. Business confidence weakened amid rising costs and potential tax hikes...Stocks featured:Endeavour Mining, Pearson and WhitbreadTo find out more about the investment management services offered by Walker Crips, please visit our website:https://www.walkercrips.co.uk/This podcast is intended to be Walker Crips Investment Management's own commentary on markets.

The web3, cryptocurrency and blockchain markets moved fast in August 2025 and we're covering Bitcoin's rise, Wyoming's state-backed coin, SoFi joining the Lightning Network, and Circle's new Layer 1. Host Tedd Huff teams up with Confidential Informant: Robert Musiala to unpack the GENIUS Act, stablecoin rules, bank use of Lightning, market structure, compliance shifts, custody standards, and global licensing moves that shaped August. You get what changed, why it matters now, and how to apply it. You get a clear read on why Bitcoin strength ties to supply behavior, how monthly reserve disclosures affect stablecoin design, and why a bank's Lightning rollout cuts payment friction.

AI isn't coming to recruitment. It's already here. And the gap between recruiters who know how to use it and those who don't is widening fast. My guest today has data proving it: recruiters adopting AI correctly are seeing up to 30% increases in GP per desk. Manan Shah is CEO and co-founder of Recruiter Flow, an AI-first recruitment operating system built for search firms, agencies, and solo practitioners doing permanent and contract placements. After accidentally discovering that recruitment agencies were "a decade behind" in tech adoption, Manan and his team have built what could be the most comprehensive AI-enabled platform for modern recruiters. This conversation gets tactical. We discuss how to run your firm with SaaS-level business intelligence, AI note-taking that structures unstructured data, job change alerts that put you in front of clients at exactly the right moment, and multichannel sequencing that lets you scale BD without adding headcount. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: RecOps: Stop Guessing, Start Measuring Many recruitment firm owners are flying blind. They figure out salary budgets, marketing spend, and incentive structures by gut feel. Manan introduces "RecOps" (Recruitment Operations), borrowed from how SaaS companies run. It means tracking the metrics that matter. In SaaS, they know their customer lifetime value versus what they spend to acquire that customer should be 3:1. You should be spending one-third or less of what a client is worth to you on getting them. Simple, but many recruitment firms haven't made this calculation. Successful firms are now hiring operations people who aren't recruiters but keep the business running tight. Job Change Alerts: Three Opportunities From One Signal When someone in your database changes jobs or gets promoted, you get three plays. First, that person's new company often needs more hires or creates turnover when they bring in their own team. Second, their old company needs to backfill. Third, the one most people miss: that person was probably interviewing elsewhere. Build rapport, and they might tell you about the other positions they turned down. Those companies might still be hiring. Recruiter Flow monitors your database automatically and pings you when these changes happen. Multichannel Sequencing: Scale Your BD Without Adding Headcount Many agencies rely on their best billers to also do all the business development. They're making calls when they remember, sending one-off emails, maybe a LinkedIn message here and there. Nothing systematic. Recruiter Flow's multichannel sequencing lets you map out an entire BD campaign with conditional logic. Send a LinkedIn connection request. If they accept in 3 days, send a message. If not, trigger an email instead. If they open your email 3+ times but don't reply, the system creates a task for your recruiter to call them. This means your team can run sophisticated, persistent BD campaigns that would normally require hiring a dedicated BD person. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: How Manan accidentally discovered the recruiting agency market and why one client signed a 3-year contract after less than a year in business What "RecOps" means and why recruitment firms need to adopt SaaS-style business intelligence AI-first vs. AI-bolted-on and why your ATS needs to be rebuilt from the ground up The three categories of AI adoption: AI-native, AI-assisted, and AI-augmented How AI note-taking captures tribal knowledge and turns it into searchable intelligence Data enrichment built in: contact finder, job change alerts, executive appointment monitoring Why it's a triple opportunity when someone changes jobs MPC automation with branded landing pages and client interaction tracking What's next: 40+ AI agents in development and the ability to build your own custom agents Why AI doesn't just lift the average but widens the gap between top and bottom performers ABOUT MANAN SHAH: Manan Shah is CEO and co-founder of Recruiter Flow, serving thousands of customers globally, from solo practitioners to firms generating over $100M in annual revenue. Before founding Recruiter Flow in 2015, Manan built his first AI company in 2013, long before AI became mainstream.

YoutubeInstagramAmazonFacebookBioThe video for “Neon Dreamers,” the latest single from Arcade Knights, opens on a futuristic cityscape reminiscent of Blade Runner or Tron. As the visuals unfold, soaring vintage synthesizers and thunderous reverb-soaked drums create a cinematic soundscape. Digitized female vocals deliver the track's core message:We're the neon dreamers lighting up the skyChasing our tomorrow, never asking whyWith our hearts electric, breaking through the darkIn this digital world, we'll make our markEvoking the atmosphere of the Stranger Things soundtrack as much as Daft Punk, the song explores a timeless question: What does it mean to be human in a world dominated by machines?That question lies at the heart of Arcade Knights, the synthwave-cyberpunk electronic project of Canadian musician Dean Parsons. Known for his deep love of 1980s drum machines and synthesizers, Parsons incorporates authentic hardware such as the LinnDrum and Oberheim OB-8 into his work. While modern software can replicate these sounds, he prefers the analog warmth and tactile experience of physical instruments, embracing the buttons, knobs, and patch cables that bring a unique authenticity to his production process.Unlike most contemporary producers, Parsons creates entirely outside of a digital audio workstation. Every track is written, recorded, and mixed using his MPC hardware sequencer, a process he believes allows more emotion to come through the physical act of playing.“My main production machine is not a DAW,” he explains. “Every track, every note, every melody is crafted and recorded through purpose-built hardware. There's a lot of heart that comes through the keys and pads.”“Neon Dreamers” serves as a companion piece to Cyber Hack, the full-length album released earlier this year. The record tells the story of hackers raised in an AI-driven world who use their skills to protect humanity, ensuring technology serves people rather than controlling them.The theme reflects Parsons' own life. Growing up in the 1980s surrounded by Commodore 64s and science-fiction films like Terminator and RoboCop, and later working as a cybersecurity expert, he has lived at the intersection of the analog and digital worlds.“It's important to embrace technology, but not let it control your life,” Parsons says. “Technology is advancing rapidly, and if we continue to depend on it blindly, it may begin to control us. I love technology, but it's a double-edged sword. The message of Cyber Hack is that we must remain the ones in control.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.
