Terra's Do Kwon gets 15 years, crypto banks get the green light, and the Trump family's crypto grift expands even as one of their treasury companies goes off the rails. Originally published on December 16, 2025.
Bitwise's Matt Hougan and Ryan Rasmussen return with 10 big predictions for 2026. From the case for $1M BTC (and why the classic four-year cycle may be dead) to a world where ETFs soak up more than 100% of new BTC/ETH/SOL supply. We get into Bitcoin volatility vs. mega-cap tech, crypto equities vs. tech equities, and why Polymarket could smash past its 2024 election-era highs. Plus: stablecoins as an “escape valve” that emerging economies may blame for currency stress, on-chain also known as “ETFs 2.0,” and how the Clarity Act could be the starter's gun for ETH and SOL to run. ------

It's the High Society Radio Christmas special no one invited them to. Chris Faga and Chris Stanley are back to basics — talking parties they didn't make the list for, Sandals resorts, and the invention of the “suaslide.” The boys break down Polymarket bets on global wars, Tucker Carlson's new Qatari adventures, and the chaos of AI teaming up with Disney. Add in some CIA “breaking news,” a few perfectly timed bleeps, and a solid argument about mail-order brides, and you've got another top-tier mix of politics, perversion, and vacation envy.The Christmas Party They Weren't Invited ToBack to BasicsBig Sandals GuyPolymarket Betting on the Ukraine WarCambodia vs ThailandWhy Do We Still Listen to Washington?Glenn Beck's Botox ForeheadBreaking CIA News“If We Could Vote From Our Phones…”Tucker Carlson Buys a House in QatarDoorDash Pricing RantDesigner Galaxy GasJapan Is F***ed UpMail-Order BridesDisney and OpenAIDON'T FORGET TO WATCH FAGA'S NEW SPECIAL "BURN AFTER SAYING" ON THE HSR YOUTUBE PAGE!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxIHJU2LotUSupport Our Sponsors!https://yokratom.com/ - Check out Yo Kratom (the home of the $60 kilo) for all your kratom needs!Body Brain Coffee: https://bodybraincoffee.com/ - Grab A Bag of Body Brain Coffee with Promo Code HSR20 to get 20% off!https://fatdickhotchocolate.net/ Get you a fat dick at fatdickhotchocolate.netHigh Society Radio is 2 native New Yorkers who started from the bottom and didn't raise up much.

Rob Hadick (GP at Dragonfly) joins VC.fm to break down how crypto venture actually works through cycles — and why the smartest firms stay countercyclical when everyone else is panicking.We go deep on the shift from “protocols capture all value” to the rise of crypto applications that generate real revenue, including prediction markets (Polymarket), stablecoin infrastructure, DeFi-backed fintech products, and the next era of tokenization + onchain financial rails.Rob also explains stablecoins in plain English, why adoption is accelerating across emerging markets and Fortune 500s, and where AI + crypto overlaps in ways that aren't pure speculation.Follow the PodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/venturecapitalfm/Twitter: https://twitter.com/vcpodcastfmLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/venturecapitalfm/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7BQimY8NJ6cr617lqtRr7N?si=ftylo2qHQiCgmT9dfloD_g&nd=1&dlsi=7b868f1b72094351Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/venture-capital/id1575351789Website: https://www.venturecapital.fm/Follow Jon BradshawLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrbradshaw/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrjonbradshaw/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mrjonbradshawFollow Peter HarrisLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterharris1Twitter: https://twitter.com/thevcstudentInstagram: https://instagram.com/shodanpeteYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@peterharris2812

Gavin Newsom is the 2028 Democratic front-runner. That's what many of the polls and the Polymarket betting odds say.It's been widely believed that Newsom wants to run for president someday. But belief that he could be a front-runner was less common. A liberal white guy from a state that much of the country considers badly governed just didn't seem like the profile the Democratic Party was looking for.But as a Californian who has watched Newsom for a long time, I was surprised by him this year. After President Trump returned to the White House, Newsom started a podcast, interviewing people like Charlie Kirk, Steve Bannon and Michael Savage, which made a lot of Democrats mad. At the same time, Newsom turned himself into the leader of the resistance — trolling Trump on social media and pushing a ballot initiative to end California's independent redistricting to counter the partisan redistricting effort in Texas.Newsom has been willing to try things and take risks. He has shown a feel for this moment — in politics and in the way attention works now.But it's still true that he runs a state that the country considers badly governed. California tops the rankings of unaffordable states, at a time when affordability has become a central electoral issue.In this conversation, I ask Newsom about all of this — what he learned this year from talking to figures on the right, how he thinks the Democratic Party can win back voters it lost, why California is so unaffordable and what he's doing about it.Mentioned:Applebee's America by Ron Fournier, Douglas B.

In this episode of Right On Radio the hosts navigate a wide-ranging conversation with guest John Brisson (WeReadTheDocuments) covering urgent geopolitical developments, spiritual interpretation, and end-times speculation. The show begins with a brief tech hiccup, a word-of-the-day segment drawing on Isaiah and Deuteronomy, and then moves into the main discussion between Jeff and John. Key topics include the newly reported United Nations "Board of Peace" (UN Security Council Resolution 2803), Donald Trump's proposed leadership role, abstentions by Russia and China, and the structure of the board — ten leaders from Arab and Western nations and a secondary team reportedly including names like Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff (with ongoing debate about Tony Blair's involvement). John and Jeff unpack how the board could fit into prophetic frameworks (ten kings, regional realignments) and whether the arrangement foreshadows larger shifts in NATO, European security, and global alignments. The hosts examine developments around Gaza and hostage exchanges, including reported U.S.–Egypt plans to empty Gaza temporarily, proposals for tokenized land purchases, and talk of a technocratic/AI-administered Gaza Strip. They also discuss regional conflicts (Azerbaijan–Armenia), the Isaac Accords in Latin America, and the role of influential figures such as Javier Milei, Elon Musk, and financiers tied to media and tech deals. Spiritual and symbolic themes are woven throughout: Chabad-Lubavitch influence, Trump's controversial ritual at the Rebbe's grave, questions about Kushner and Ivanka's ties, and concerns about Jewish mysticism and modern political-religious alliances. The episode covers the rise of AI and prediction markets (Kalshi, Polymarket) and media–tech partnerships (CNN, Palantir, Fox) as possible instruments in building a global "beast" system or unified narrative. John and Jeff debate theosophical plans (externalization of the hierarchy), the potential for a one-world religion and the timeline for major events (speculation about 2026–2027), and interpretations of Mystery Babylon and Jerusalem's prophetic role. The conversation alternates between reporting current developments, geopolitical analysis, and biblical prophecy, emphasizing watchfulness, prayer, and community action. Guests & logistics: John Brisson (WeReadTheDocuments) joins host Jeff. The episode closes with practical notes — an invitation to a Telegram prayer meeting and a reminder to follow John's channels — and a final exhortation to love God, family and neighbor while staying alert to world events and prophetic signs.

Over the last few days, online betting platform Polymarket suddenly saw an increase in bets on President Donald Trump declassifying classified UFO records before the end of this year. According to the Daily Mail, on Dec 6, odds in favor of Trump disclosing the truth about UFOs in 2025 were at 6 percent. By Dec. 9, however, those odds increased to a 98 percent chance that the administration would publicly disclose the facts about aliens and/or UFOs. Some believe it is possible a White House insider with knowledge of Trump's thinking on the subject is the reason for the sudden explosion in bets on disclosure occurring soon.Links/Sources:Trump UFO disclosure predicted to come in just DAYS after mysterious 'insider' tip | Daily Mail OnlineSupport Extraterrestrial Reality/Quirk Zone on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/c/Extraterrestrial_RealityCheck out my YouTube channel:Quirk Zone - YouTubeExtraterrestrial Reality Book Recommendations:Link to ROSWELL: THE ULTIMATE COLD CASE: CLOSED: https://amzn.to/3O2loSILink to COMMUNION by Whitley Strieber: https://amzn.to/3xuPGqiLink to THE THREAT by David M.

Is that already decided?These answers and more are coming your way on today's action-packed TWiST… PLUS the latest on the Warner Bros Discovery-Netflix deal, PR guru Lulu Cheng Meservey's new venture fund, and why Jason and Lon are obsessing about Apple TV's “Pluribius.”Timestamps:(01:59) They put Target ads in ChatGPT?

Bitcoin may be pitched as an alternative to the dollar system, but its price behavior shows how tightly it's now linked to the same forces that drive equities, credit, and tech multiples. When liquidity improves (when dollars are easier to borrow and funding markets relax), risk-taking becomes cheaper and more comfortable.~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/iTrustPaulGuest: Lyn Alden, Founder of Lyn Alden Investment StrategyLyn Alden website ➜ https://bit.ly/LynAldensiteBUY Lyn's Book "Broken Money" ➜ https://bit.ly/BrokenMoneyBook00:00 Intro00:10 Sponsor: iTrust Capital01:10 Debasement Trade03:00 Multi year QE04:30 Does Bitcoin need QE?05:30 Is the 4-Year cycle Dead?06:45 Michael Saylor $MSTR Strategy08:50 $BMNR outlook10:30 Interest rates goin to zero?12:40 Kevin Hassett as Fed Chair14:30 2 Years Ago: Lyn Alden Was Right vs VanEck15:30 Is Tokenization/Stablecoins taking away from Bitcoin narrative?16:45 Tokenized Gold vs Bitcoin Products19:40 Bitcoin All-time high in 2026?21:00 Would you add Paxos or Polymarket to your portfolio?22:15 Which AI stock/sector/options play are you considering?25:30 Is ZCash scam-pump finally over?25:20 Is now a good time to DCA?26:30 Outro#Crypto #Bitcoin #Ethereum~Market Liquidity Incoming

Bitcoin hit a rare signal this week, dropping to its cheapest level relative to gold in nearly 15 years. Is that a buy signal or something deeper in the macro picture? Ryan and David break down what the BTC–gold anomaly really means, how liquidity, rates, and Trump's surprise Fed Chair pick factor in, and whether the market is entering a shallow cycle instead of a true winter. We also cover Ethereum's Fusaka upgrade, Vitalik's push to bring builders back to L1, Polymarket's mainstream breakout and CNN–Kalshi deal, and Aztec's 16K ETH privacy auction.

Welcome to The Chopping Block — where Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner cover crypto's biggest moments. This week we're joined by Kevin from the Monad Foundation as we dig into the most chaotic token launch of the year. Monad goes live, CT explodes, and the tokenomics wars come roaring back — vesting, float, FDV, and why everything “just keeps going down.” We break down whether the world actually needs another L1, how hype creates impossible expectations, and how Kevin and the Monad team are handling the spotlight — and the hate. Then we shift to security chaos: Yearn's underflow hack, Anthropic's AI discovering real smart contract vulnerabilities, and “post-quantum” panic sweeping Crypto Twitter. Plus: BTC volatility, MicroStrategy drama, and prediction markets suddenly going mainstream. Show highlights

SummaryIn this episode, Luke, Ash, and Tom unpack the turbulence sweeping through the crypto markets. From major liquidations to shifting macro forces like government shutdown fears, interest rates, and the rise of institutional actors. The group questions whether the classic narratives that shaped earlier cycles, including the four-year halving pattern, still hold up in a world dominated by ETFs, professional market makers, and global uncertainty. Their discussion blends humor with honest reflection as they explore why crypto feels markedly different today than it did even a few years ago.The conversation also delves into lessons from past speculative manias, including NFTs, metaverse land grabs, and the era when “conviction plays” didn't always pan out. From the mysterious staying power of XRP to the explosive growth of prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi, the hosts examine what speculation reveals about the industry's culture and its future. Together, they paint a grounded but optimistic picture of where crypto may be heading as adoption matures and the ecosystem continues to evolve.Check out our friends at Tequila 512:Website: https://www.tequila512.comSocials: X (Twitter) | Instagram | TikTok | FacebookTo learn more about ATX DAO:Check out the ATX DAO websiteFollow @ATXDAO on X (Twitter)Subscribe to our newsletterConnect with us on LinkedInJoin the community in the ATX DAO DiscordConnect with the ATX DAO Podcast team on X (Twitter):Ash: @ashinthewildLuke: @Luke152Tom: @Tommyg_25Support the Podcast:If you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a review and share it with your network.Subscribe for more insights, interviews, and deep dives into the world of Web3.
