The discussion covers potential use cases for Simplicity, including advanced covenant implementations, ZK verification, and its role in capital markets and asset issuance. The conversation also touches on the implications of stablecoins moving to their own chains and contrasts Liquid with other Layer 2 solutions like Lightning.Takeaways

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently took himself out of the running to take over as Chair of the Federal Reserve at the end of Jerome Powell’s term. (Or when Trump fires him illegally.) Perhaps it has something to do with his serious flub recently when he said the quiet part out loud about privatizing Social Security. Either way, Trump is on a mission to cut the Federal Funds rate to as low as one percent. In today’s episode, we game it out to explain what would happen if rates suddenly dropped so low in this economic environment. (Spoiler: It would be catastrophic for the average American.) Then we reveal what Trump’s actual motives might be for doing so.

In this episode, we sit down with Mike Belshe, CEO of BitGo, to reveal why this new law could be the biggest catalyst for crypto since Bitcoin ETFs… and the worst news banks have had in a century. Will stablecoins kill traditional banking? Could 4% on-chain interest spark a global run on deposits? And how might this law make the U.S. dollar the last fiat currency standing? ~~~~~

Daniel & Shawn dive into Remitly, the digital remittance platform aiming to disrupt a $2 trillion global market. After years of prioritizing customer acquisition and corridor expansion over profits, Remitly is now approaching a critical inflection point, one where scale, margin leverage, and cash generation could unlock a new phase of investor confidence. But there are risks as well: crypto-native challengers, regulatory uncertainty, and broader concerns about the remittance industry all raise the question of whether the upside is worth the risk. Here, they unpack Remitly's moat, including its direct payout network, risk engine, and customer trust, and assess whether these factors are enough to fend off cheaper, faster payment rails, such as stablecoins. They walk through the company's unit economics and what the valuation model implies under both steady-state and high-growth scenarios. Along the way, they compare Remitly's customer lock-in strategy to Booking.com, examine the remittance corridor dynamics in India, the Philippines, and Latin America, and debate whether this is a misunderstood fintech with enduring staying power or a product ripe for crypto disruption. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN 00:00 – Intro 01:08 – How the remittance market works 01:50 – Why Western Union struggles to compete with Remitly 02:16 – Why and how Remitly was founded 04:48 – What risks Remitly faces 05:01 – How stablecoins could disrupt the remittance industry 11:34 – What competitive advantages Remitly has 17:16 – What digital-first companies compete with Remitly 24:37 – Why scale is everything in the payments sector 27:56 – Whether Remitly is attractively valued at its current levels 29:27 – Whether Shawn & Daniel add RELY to The Intrinsic Value Portfolio *Disclaimer: Slight timestamp discrepancies may occur due to podcast platform differences.

Stable coins have gotten a lot of news lately...but what are they? Are they here to stay? Is this something community banks are going to have to deal with...whether we like it or not?

Maria Shen is a General Partner and Sanjay Shah is in Research at Electric Capital.In this episode, we break down Electric Capital's latest report on how the growth of stablecoins drives demand for ETH. We unpack why Ethereum the network is best positioned to serve global demand for stablecoins, its current dominance in stablecoin liquidity, how ETH's status as a reserve asset and store of value is accelerating with demand for stablecoins, and why holding ETH may be the easiest, simplest way to get exposure to stablecoin growth over the next decade.------

America's global power has always been built on controlling networks, money, trade, and communication. But today, those networks are under attack. China's Belt & Road is building a parallel system, Stablecoins are being weaponized as tools of financial repression, and Bitcoin is emerging as a strategic asset that could flip global finance.Add AI-driven narrative warfare, and we're entering a battle between centralized control, the Tower and decentralized freedom, the Square. Today, Matthew Pines and I unpack how America's monetary tech stack is being rebuilt; before it's too late.Kane McGukinX: https://twitter.com/kanemcgukin kanemcgukin.substack.com Matthew PinesX:https://x.com/matthew_pineshttps://www.btcpolicy.org/https://www.btcpolicy.org/articles/a-global-economic-reordering-us-china-competition-and-bitcoin-as-tool-of-us-statecraft

World-renowned economist Martin Armstrong returns to the Friday Night Financial Review with critical updates from Socrates, his powerful AI-driven forecasting system. Drawing on millions of data points, Socrates has guided major sovereign and institutional funds through global economic disruptions—now, its latest predictions are sounding alarms. In this episode, Armstrong reveals that the timeline for a potential global conflict may be accelerating, with signs pointing to September 2025 rather than 2026. He also breaks down the Genius Act, explaining how it mirrors historic war bond initiatives from World War I and other major conflicts, signaling deeper economic and geopolitical shifts ahead.Learn more about Martin Armstrong at Armstrong Economics

For this Long Read Sunday, NLW explores Nick Carter's sweeping new essay comparing modern stablecoins to 19th-century free banking. Through a condensed version rewritten by Claude, the episode dismantles the common narrative that stablecoins echo a chaotic era of wildcat banking. Instead, it shows how American instability was due to bad regulation—not the concept of private money itself. With successful examples from Scottish and Canadian free banking systems, and a look at how stablecoins leverage tech and market incentives to solve past failures, this is a must-listen for anyone serious about monetary history and crypto's future.

In Part 2 of Tom Bilyeu's epic conversation with Kevin O'Leary, the discussion escalates from global power struggles to the very heart of America's economic future. As the superpowers of the US and China face off, Tom and Kevin analyze the survival of the American dream—are freedom and entrepreneurship enough to keep America competitive in an era of inequality, populism, and ballooning debt? This half of the episode pulls back the curtain on political self-correction in democracy, the risk of America's debt cycle approaching collapse, the search for genuine economic growth, and the radical innovation that could save the day. If you want razor-sharp commentary on AI, the stability of the US dollar, and whether America can avoid a fiscal disaster, don't miss this eye-opening dialogue.
