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, Kaledora Linn, Co-founder and “Empress of RWAs” at Ostium, joins to break down the rise of on-chain equity perps, the funding-rate chaos that hit 365%, and why she believes the next wave of tokenized assets won't come from exchanges—but from structured liquidity markets. We dive deep into Ostium's hybrid CFD model that blends TradFi mechanics with on-chain transparency, explore why most retail traders can't stomach perp carry costs, and debate what “safe leverage” could look like in an RWA world. The panel also touches on CZ's presidential pardon and Coinbase's new Echo platform, connecting the dots between political optics, capital formation, and how crypto's product design is evolving beyond speculation. Whether you're building perpetual DEXs, tokenizing RWAs, or just trying to survive the next funding-rate spike, this episode unpacks how market design, UX, and regulation will shape crypto's next trillion-dollar frontier.

Howard and Michael sit down with Multicoin's Kyle Samani for a fast, no-BS tour of where markets are going next. They rewind the Multicoin origin story (including Howard's IRA adventure), then dive into why 2022–23 was emotionally tougher than the 2018–19 crypto winter. From there, Kyle lays out “Internet Capital Markets”—finance embedded everywhere—why trading inside chats, media, and sports apps is inevitable, and how prediction markets become the new front page of news. We get into Solana's lead, stablecoins as rails, prime brokerage natively on-chain, and why the biggest market makers are already active on Kalshi. Kyle also breaks down Forward Industries (ticker FORD): the $1.65B PIPE, turning it into a Solana treasury company, and deploying SOL/USD into DeFi yield. Plus: AI x crypto as the only barbell that matters, perps vs. options (in plain English), and what Kyle is funding next—new modalities for issuance and trading.Chapters00:00 Cold Open: Howard, Michael & Kyle (freshly married, freshly groomed)01:46 Howard's Multicoin IRA story & the 2019 doldrums05:01 2018–19 vs 2022–23: why the second bear hurt more08:03 Solana 101 & “Internet Capital Markets” explained11:49 Breaking “isolated finance”; embedding trading across the web12:26 Telegram bots → trading where conversations happen15:14 Prediction markets in media & sports (buy/sell on the article)17:21 Stocktwits x Polymarket, swipe-to-trade, and peer-to-peer bets22:01 Institutional plumbing: discovery, silos, and cross-venue UIs25:19 On-chain prime brokerage (Zero on Solana) & collateral efficiency31:54 Why Solana leads; the case for $1T+34:02 Stablecoins as the settlement layer for everything36:15 SIG, Citadel, Jane Street, Jump already active on Kalshi37:40 Sportsbooks vs real markets; letting market makers set prices39:34 Crypto is retail-first: sovereignty, keys, and open participation45:05 Inside FORD: $1.65B PIPE, Solana treasury strategy46:43 Not trading SOL price—deploying SOL/USD into DeFi yield48:30 AI x Crypto barbell: what won't be disrupted53:41 Perps vs options in plain English; leverage (without the Greeks)57:15 Lessons from 2022: correlation, fraud, and risk controls58:40 What Kyle's funding next: new modalities for issuance & tradingKyle's Panel at the All In Summit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijbLOWFmVe8Join Our Community! https://stocktwits.com/Sign up for our daily FREE newsletter to keep in touch with the market: https://thedailyrip.stocktwits.com/Disclaimer:All opinions expressed on this show are solely the opinions of the hosts' and guests' and do not reflect the opinions of Stocktwits, Inc. or its affiliates.

As crypto markets mature, Kraken is transforming from a trading venue into a multi-asset infrastructure platform. Co-CEO Arjun Sethi joins to break down the exchange's expansive strategy: building a vertically integrated derivatives business, pioneering tokenized equities with xStocks, and launching a purpose-built layer 2 chain, Ink, to bridge regulated finance and open DeFi. Sethi also explains how Kraken responded to the Black Friday crash, the firm's ADL and margin policies, and what Kraken wants from U.S. policymakers in 2025. Plus: how Kraken's acquisitions of NinjaTrader and Small Exchange could reshape U.S. derivatives, and why this time, tokenization may finally deliver. Thank you to our sponsors!

a16z crypto's CTO Eddy Lazzarin and partner Daren Matsuoka return for our annual State of Crypto to map where 2025 really is on the curve: a price–innovation cycle poised to hand the baton back to builders, Bitcoin holding ~50% share, and 70M people now using crypto on-chain out of 716M owners. We dig into why institutions are actually shipping (not just PR), how stablecoins now rival Visa-scale volumes and sit among top U.S. Treasury holders, why DEX spot share near 20% changes price discovery, and how perps, infra throughput, and fee-switch economics are reshaping revenue across chains. Plus: prediction markets' second act, the AI×crypto handshake (agents, proof-of-humanity, IP), and Bitcoin's long-dated quantum dilemma. ---

Paul Barron shows how the #crypto markets are resilient despite President Trump's aggressive 50% tariff threats on the EU, which have rattled European stocks and sparked global uncertainty. Yet, investors remain adaptive as many see the move as a negotiation tactic rather than a lasting policy shift. He then examines the odd timing of major U.S. banks moving to adopt stablecoins just as the GENIUS Act is set to pass, raising questions about regulatory clarity, potential instability, and whether banks can genuinely compete with crypto-native platforms in digital asset payments. Finally, Barron explores the evolving investor landscape: Millennials and Gen Z embrace digital assets, tokenization, and alternative investments at unprecedented rates, signaling a generational shift away from traditional finance models as younger investors prioritize flexibility, technology, and decentralized options for their digital wealth.~This episode is sponsored by iTrust Capital~iTrustCapital | Get $100 Funding Reward + No Monthly Fees when you sign up using our custom link! ➜ https://bit.ly/iTrustPaul00:00 Intro00:17 Sponsor iTrust00:52 Trade war back?01:22 Recession odds increase again02:20 CLIP - French Hill on EU tariffs04:45 CLIP - CNBC: How can Apple & Trump meet in the middle06:06 India trade deal in 10 days06:48 Robinhood dead?08:00 Perps coming to the US08:20 Banks vs Tether12:45 Tether vs BlackRock13:30 CLIP - French Hill: We need to set the standard on stablecoins16:33 BTC Bull market will redefine portfolios18:15 Outro#crypto #xrp #bitcoin ⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺Join our community!

These are the worst — and wokest — judges in New York City when it comes to protecting the public from violent suspects.These criminal court jurists set violent offenders loose ahead of trial at an astounding rate — with some springing alleged perps more than 80% of the time, according to a Post analysis of pretrial detention data from the Office of Court Administration.The analysis looked at 96 judges who handled a minimum of 25 cases in the first six months of 2024 where the top charge at arraignment was a violent felony. Nearly all such cases are still bail-eligible, even after radical criminal-justice reforms were enacted by Albany lawmakers in 2019. One of the city's most egregious practitioners of this junk justice is Queens Criminal Court Judge Wanda Licitra, who only set bail five times and had no suspects held in pretrial detention in 34 violent felony cases spanning January to June 2024, the latest available data.
