Meanwhile, Ripple's Stu Alderoty heads to Jackson Hole for the SALT Conference to debate U.S. policy. On the world stage—Putin claims there would be no Russia–Ukraine war if Trump had been president.

"Bitcoin capturing everything means Bitcoin has to capture the securities market." In this powerful and wide-ranging episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, host Walker America is joined by Steven Lubka — founder of Vibes Capital Management and VP of Investor Relations at Nakamoto — for a high-signal conversation on Bitcoin treasury companies, paper Bitcoin summer, and how institutional financial engineering is accelerating Bitcoin adoption. They unpack what “paper Bitcoin summer” really means, why Bitcoin-focused public companies are not scams, and how financial tools like equity, preferred shares, and corporate debt are being leveraged in a speculative attack on fiat. Steven shares why these companies are not just “paper” proxies but key infrastructure for integrating Bitcoin into global capital markets — especially for institutions and jurisdictions where holding spot Bitcoin is not feasible. He breaks down the MNAV premium, the rise of MetaPlanet, and how Nakamoto is building the future of Bitcoin financial infrastructure. Plus, they riff on walking in the sun, health as proof-of-work, OTC misconceptions, ETH copycats, and why Sailor's open-source playbook changed the game forever.

Ripple 300+ Banks… So Where's the On-Chain Volume? | White House goes full Crypto

In this episode I speak with Edward Yu, co-founder of Variational. We begin the conversation with Edward's background in crypto OTC markets. He explains how the space evolved away from Telegram chats, the complexities of pricing derivative structures on the long-tail of alternative crypto currencies, and the sources of natural flow in the space.This experience led Edward to co-found Variational, which seeks to bring the trillion dollar OTC derivatives market on-chain by disaggregating settlement, margining, and derivative payoff logic into programmable primitives.Built on top of Variational is the OMNI perp dex – or decentralized perpetual futures exchange for the non-crypto-speaking listeners. Unlike other perp dexes that are build around a centralized order book, OMNI effectively acts as a user interface to a OTC RFQ system. On the other side is OLP – the OMNI Liquidity Provider. This structure allows OMNI to provide significant depth of liquidity on a huge breadth of investable assets despite the platform being in closed beta at the time of recording. Given its unique design, we spend a significant amount of time discussing the pros, cons, and risks of this structure.This conversation is, obviously, out of my usual realm. But for those listeners interested in market structure and where the world of finance may be headed, this is one not to miss.Please enjoy my conversation with Edward Yu.

Episode 197: Continuous Glucose MonitoringWritten by William Zeng, MSIII, and Chris Kim, MSIII. University of Southern California.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Will: IntroToday we're exploring Continuous Glucose Monitoring, or CGM. We'll break down what CGM is, who benefits, how to access it, options available for our patients, the pros and cons, and a few final reflections on where this technology is heading. Chris, So what is CGM?Chris:Continuous glucose monitoring refers to the use of a small wearable sensor placed just under the skin to track glucose levels in real time throughout the day and night. These sensors measure glucose in the interstitial fluid and transmit readings to a receiver or smartphone at regular intervals, allowing for 24/7 glucose trend tracking. Will:CGM has been shown to improve glycemic control, increase “time in range,” and reduce hypoglycemia. Let's review some evidence.Chris:A 2023 meta-analysis published in Diabetes Technology & Therapeutics reported a mean Hemoglobin A1c reduction of 0.43% across multiple trials. Will:In people with Type 1 diabetes, the IMPACT and DIAMOND studies showed sustained improvement in Hemoglobin A1c and hypoglycemia reduction over 6–12 months. CGM use in insulin-treated Type 2 diabetes patients also resulted in significant benefits, including reduced variability and fewer severe glucose excursions. Chris:Clinically and economically, CGMs help prevent long-term complications such as cardiovascular disease, nephropathy, and retinopathy. Chris, What patients specifically benefit the most from CGM?Will: CGMs are most commonly indicated for people with Type 1 diabetes and for those with Type 2 diabetes who are using intensive insulin regimens—typically defined as multiple daily injections or insulin pump therapy. Chris:And what are the qualifications in order to be covered by insurance?Will:In the United States, Medicare covers CGM as durable medical equipment for qualifying patients, and coverage requires a prescription, documentation of insulin use, and regular follow-up. Most major private insurers—including Blue Cross, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, and Kaiser—follow similar guidelines. Coverage is generally granted for patients with Type 1 diabetes or insulin-requiring Type 2 diabetes who monitor glucose at least four times daily or use an insulin pump. Chris:Some plans require demonstration of hypoglycemia unawareness or frequent glucose variability. For patients not on insulin, OTC CGMs may be an option, but coverage is typically not provided. That said, new FDA decisions are allowing over-the-counter access to CGMs like Abbott's FreeStyle Libre and Dexcom's Stelo, expanding availability for lifestyle or preventive purposes.Will:[There are a lot of products on the market. Which are the main products and how are they different?]Chris:The three main players in the CGM space are Dexcom, Abbott (FreeStyle Libre), and Senseonics (Eversense), each with unique offerings.Let's start with Dexcom. Dexcom G7 is a real-time CGM system approved for both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. It combines a sensor and transmitter into one compact wearable patch worn on the abdomen or upper arm for up to 10 days. It updates glucose readings every 5 minutes and connects directly to a smartphone or Apple Watch via Bluetooth. Dexcom also integrates with insulin pumps like Tandem's t:slim and the Omnipod 5. Data can be shared with providers through Dexcom Clarity, which integrates into electronic medical records (EMRs) like Epic. OTC access is not yet available for DEXCOM G7, but a new non-prescription product called Dexcom Stelo is being rolled out in 2025, targeting non-insulin-using Type 2 patients. Dexcom Stelo will also offer 15-day wear, smartphone integration, and factory calibration. The estimated OTC cost for Dexcom Stelo is expected to be around $99 for a 15-day sensor, or about $198/month.Will:$200! Abbott FreeStyle Libre comes in several versions. The Libre 2 offers 14-day wear and requires users to scan the sensor with their smartphone or reader to retrieve a glucose value. It has optional real-time alarms for high and low readings and transmits data to LibreView, which can integrate with most EMRs. Libre 3 is a real-time CGM with 1-minute interval updates, Bluetooth transmission, and a slimmer profile. Libre sensors are widely used in primary care and available OTC for non-insulin users. Libre 2 sensors cost approximately $70–$85 for a 14-day sensor, while Libre 3 is slightly higher, around $85–$100 per sensor—totaling about $140–$200/month out of pocket without insurance.Chris:Senseonics Eversense E3 is the only implantable CGM on the market. It involves a minor in-office procedure to insert the sensor under the skin of the upper arm, which lasts up to 180 days (and a newer version, Eversense 365, lasts up to one year). A removable transmitter worn on top of the skin sends data every 5 minutes to a mobile app and vibrates for alerts. It requires 1–2 calibrations per day using a traditional fingerstick meter. It integrates with Eversense DMS software for physician monitoring. The total cost for Eversense depends on the insertion procedure and insurance, but cash pay for the full 6-month system is estimated at $2,400–$3,000, or about $400–$500/month including follow-up visits.Will:Additional lower-cost CGMs such as the Medtrum A6 TouchCare are available internationally and in select U.S. pilot programs. These devices offer 14-day wear, smartphone syncing, and daily calibration, but are not yet FDA-approved for wide use and lack full EMR integration.Chris:In terms of performance and value, Dexcom G7 offers the most advanced real-time feedback and integration, making it ideal for those on insulin pumps or needing tight control. Will:FreeStyle Libre offers the best affordability and convenience, especially for non-insulin users or those who prefer not to deal with constant alerts. Eversense offers a niche but compelling option for people who want to avoid frequent sensor changes. Chris, [Are there any downsides or risks that patients should be aware of before trying out CGM?]Chris:CGMs are generally safe and well-tolerated, but they do have limitations. Dexcom G7 has a known failure mode where sensors sometimes fail prematurely, often before the full 10-day duration. Some users have reported “signal loss” errors or random disconnections, especially when switching between phone models or operating systems. There are occasional reports of inaccurate highs or lows due to compression during sleep or dehydration. Though the G7 is factory-calibrated, abrupt changes in hydration or blood flow can affect its readings.Will:FreeStyle Libre systems, particularly Libre 2, require the user to scan the sensor to retrieve data unless alerts are enabled. These devices may be affected by vitamin C (ascorbic acid), which can falsely elevate glucose readings, and they do not currently allow for automated insulin delivery integration. Some Libre 2 users have noted adhesive-related rashes or spontaneous detachment. Libre 3, while more advanced, still may lose Bluetooth connection intermittently, particularly if the phone is out of range or the app is not running in the background.Chris:Senseonics Eversense carries procedural risks due to its implantable nature. Minor scarring or infection at the insertion site has been reported. The transmitter must be worn during waking hours to provide alerts, and users report anxiety over losing the transmitter since data logging is interrupted without it. Calibration is still required, which adds to daily tasks. Additionally, the sensor does not communicate with insulin pumps or closed-loop systems.Will:All CGMs can cause mild skin irritation from adhesive, particularly in users with sensitive skin. Alert fatigue is another consideration, as frequent low- or high-glucose warnings may cause stress or lead users to silence notifications entirely. Finally, relying solely on CGM without periodic fingerstick confirmation in symptomatic scenarios can be a risk, especially during rapid glucose changes.Chris:Conclusion[***] Continuous glucose monitors have reshaped the way we manage diabetes, offering unprecedented insight into glucose trends, diet responses, and insulin timing. While CGMs are not flawless, the technology continues to evolve. Will: If your patient is on insulin or struggling with glucose variability, consider whether CGM is right for your patient. For those not using insulin, consider newer OTC options like FreeStyle Libre or Dexcom Stelo, which offer accessible entry points without the need for prescriptions. As AI integration, longer sensor life, and non-invasive monitoring enter the market, CGM will only become more useful.Dr Arreaza: Personal experience with CGMs. I do not have diabetes, but I have a strong family history of diabetes (including father, 2 grandmas, and about 15 uncles, aunts, and cousins.)I wanted to try it so I could teach my patients about CGM. My first experience was with Freestyle Libre 2: Pros: Painless placement, easy to use, scanning with phone was easier than fingersticks.Cons: Required some assembling to be placed, mild discomfort at night, and nighttime alarms.Dexcom G7:Pros: No need for scanning, feels more stable in your armCons: High readings (had to calibrate for a more accurate reading)Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser. Thanks for listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast.

The Collapse Chronicles – Episode 2: Pandemics

The clearing price of optionality in the market is impacted by a myriad of factors. To be sure, the economy and corporate profit cycle, the stance of monetary policy and geopolitical risk all matter. Flows in the derivatives markets are also of consequence as they impact the environment for supply and demand. And in this context, it was excellent to welcome Benn Eifert, Founder and Managing Partner of QVR Advisors, back to the Alpha Exchange.Benn brings a data-driven lens to today's complex volatility markets, and in this conversation, he discusses the unintended consequences of crowded risk-managed option strategies, such as buffer ETFs and overwriting. We explore how structural flows have drained the volatility risk premium, especially from the front end of the curve where the flow has especially been one way, leading to substantial optionality being sold into the marketplace. Benn states that since 2012, the VRP has largely vanished, leaving the returns to owning short-dated straddles actually positive since then. For risk-managed ETFs, the implications are unfavorable as many of these strategies often reduce beta without providing meaningful downside protection, results that are posted on the QVR website. From Benn's perspective, even for a large and liquid options complex like the S&P 500, the sheer volume of capital chasing the same trade is distorting expected returns.We finish the conversation by exploring the evolution of QVR's trade implementation and risk management practices. Here, Benn shares that the listed options market has become a focal point relative to years ago when OTC products transacted bi-laterally with large banks were of greater importance. The approach now leans into technology and seeking to exit and enter trades more passively, with a market-making approach.I hope you enjoy this episode of the Alpha Exchange, my conversation with Benn Eifert.

Max Trescott interviews Dr. John Trowbridge, a physician and former senior Aviation Medical Examiner, to tackle a hidden yet critical safety topic: how over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription medications contribute to general aviation accidents. Studies have found that up to 40% of fatal accidents involve pilots with impairing substances in their system—ranging from allergy medications to sleep aids to alcohol. The problem? Many of these substances are legal and even commonplace, yet can significantly degrade judgment, memory, attention, and coordination. Dr. Trowbridge emphasizes that many pilots—and even their doctors—are unaware of FAA wait-time guidelines. He explains the FAA's “5x rule,” which states that a pilot must wait five times the recommended dosage interval before flying. So if a medication is taken every six hours, the pilot should wait 30 hours after the last dose. For 24-hour medications like Zyrtec, the wait time stretches to five full days. The discussion highlights the particular dangers of first-generation antihistamines like Benadryl (diphenhydramine), which are highly sedating and frequently found in sleep aids like Tylenol PM, NyQuil, and Unisom. These medications, even when taken the night before, can impair cognitive function well into the next day. Alarmingly, Benadryl is the most commonly detected OTC drug in fatal GA accidents. Dr. Trowbridge also warns about second-generation antihistamines like Zyrtec and Xyzal. While marketed as “non-drowsy,” these can still cause subtle sedation, especially in combination with alcohol or other medications. Alternatives like Allegra and Claritin are usually safer and FAA-approved—but only after personal ground-testing and AME consultation. Beyond antihistamines, they explore other drug categories. For pain relief, medications like aspirin, Tylenol, ibuprofen, and Aleve are generally safe, but anything with “PM” on the label likely contains sedating ingredients. Prescription painkillers like codeine are outright disqualifying. Dr. Trowbridge shares unconventional options too, like topical lidocaine, coconut oil, and even horse liniment—though with cautions about application and legality. Sleep aids are another minefield. Melatonin is the only one on the FAA's “go list,” and even it should be ground-tested first. Nasal decongestants such as Afrin and Sudafed can raise blood pressure and cause jitteriness, making natural remedies like saline rinses or cool vapor inhalation preferable. Cough medications also pose risks. Products with dextromethorphan (like DayQuil or Delsym) can sedate, as can multi-symptom formulas marked “PM” or “nighttime.” Gastrointestinal issues are more straightforward: most antacids like Tums and Maalox are safe, but anti-diarrheals like Imodium are not, due to sedation risks. UTIs are covered with non-sedating options like AZO and D-Mannose, but Dr. Trowbridge cautions pilots never to fly if symptomatic or on unfamiliar antibiotics. The conversation then turns to alcohol. The FAA's limit is 0.04%, but even lower levels can impair judgment, night vision, and reaction time—especially when combined with other medications or altitude-related hypoxia. Max cites an older FAA study showing that alcohol above 0.04% was found in 7% of fatal pilot crashes, with 3% involving both alcohol and drugs. Finally, Dr. Trowbridge emphasizes the importance of pilot self-awareness and due diligence. Most doctors are not trained in FAA regulations and may prescribe disqualifying medications unless reminded. He urges pilots to always research their medications, consult their AME, and even speak with pharmacists about interactions and cognitive side effects. Dr. Trowbridge's website, ClearedForTakeoff.info, offers in-depth presentations on pilot health concerns like sleep, sinus issues, inflammation, and safe alternatives to disqualifying drugs. His goal is to help pilots avoid both illness and medication risks, empowering them to stay flying—and stay safe.

On today's episode we're talking about the complex issue of cryptocurrency and divorce, and to help unpack it, I brought in Chris Groshong. Chris made the leap from biotech to fintech when he founded CoinStructive back in 2015. Since then he's worked for crypto financial institutions and has helped hundreds of people track down crypto lost to scams, hacks, and yes, hidden in divorce. If crypto feels confusing, secretive, or even a little bit shady to you, you're not alone. But as Chris explains, the blockchain is actually built on transparency. So once you know what to look for, it becomes a powerful tool for uncovering hidden assets.  In this conversation, we break down what crypto really is, how it shows up in divorce, and what steps you can take if you suspect it's being used to conceal money. Here's what else we discuss in this episode: What cryptocurrency is and why understanding how it works is so important in the context of divorce (3:29) What the hell is the blockchain?? (4:56) Why crypto can be risky in divorce: people often forget that it's not just about gains, but losses too (21:26) Red flags that might signal your spouse is hiding crypto (think unexplainable withdrawals, hardware wallets, or sketchy apps) (24:56) How crypto investigations actually work and why they're often more successful than you'd think (44:49) Learn more about Chris Groshong: Chris Groshong is a Certified Fraud Investigator who focuses on helping victims of cryptocurrency scams. He is also the Chief Compliance Officer for several crypto financial institutions including Bitcoin ATM operators, OTC exchanges, Wallet operators, DeFi platforms and more. He helps oversee money transmitter licensing and regulatory affairs for his clients at a fraction of the cost of attorneys. He is a member of the CFCIA (California Financial Crimes Investigators Association), Government Blockchain Association, The Chamber of Digital Commerce, ABA (American Bar Association), ACFCS, ACFE, ACAMS, and has served as an Expert Witness in a Federal fraud case involving Bitcoin and Monero as well as several Divorce cases. He maintains a public-private partnership with the FBI through Infragard. Chris is the Executive Director of the Crypto Recovery Alliance, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping victims of crypto thefts and scams by providing Blockchain Forensics to victims who can't afford services, as well as access to low or no-cost Mental Health services and preventative education and training.
