    Cap's DeFi Stablecoin Strategy Is Ushering in a New Era of Crypto - DeFi Dave #53

    DeFi Dave is the Head of Growth at Cap, a decentralized financial (DeFi) credit protocol. As the name suggests, Dave is a seasoned DeFi expert, dedicating most of his daily life to projects in the industry since 2017. In this episode, Dave and I got stuck into the function of credit in the broader economy, what the word 'credit' actually means, the philosophical underpinnings of Cap, and how the protocol adds value and introduces a novel mechanism for the creation of credit in both digital and traditional finance. We also went into great detail on the how and why of stablecoins, what they actually are as an asset, and the function they serve in the global economy. We did a little defending of central banks and discussed the importance of the US Dollar in the global market and why it's unlikely that US Dollar dominance will be shrinking anytime soon. I also asked Dave for the genesis story of how he first discovered crypto and why he decided to stick around, especially with him running meta-ironic events like Cigs Inside and ETH Bushwick, which started out as jokes on the internet but eventually became legitimate events in the real world.

    Lauris Zvirbulis is a financial economist, forward deployed philospher, a top graduate of the London School of Economics and a serial founder in the world of open-source finance. In this episode, Lauris and I discussed market and financial economics, specifically focused on his previous academic research on Arrow-Debreu securities, swaps, and event contracts outcomes, including the use of prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket to create fast-feedback, information-dense "perfect" markets. We went into extensive detail on both the theory and praxis of these frameworks in the crypto industry today, focusing largely on the toxic effect of memecoins on the retail market in cryptocurrency, the case for prediction markets as a new asset class (not just sportsbook gambling), why blockchain-based perpetual futures venues like Hyperliquid and Tradexyz transcend the realm of pure crypto, why "web3" was always doomed to fail, Lucretius and evolutionary theoretical frameworks for financial and social applications, his new project 'Hedgebook', modern dating dynamics, media ecology, christianity , hypergamy, RWA's and the re-industrialization of the United States with artificial intelligence.

    #50 - The Bull Case for Ethereum in 2026 - Clouted

    Clouted is the founder of ETH Strategy, an onchain digital asset treasury for Ethereum (ETH). It is a protocol for "generational unliquidatable giga long ETH exposure" and currently holds $21 million in ETH in it's treasury. In this episode, Clouted and I discuss the failings of Ethereum to successfully capture value and reward the developers on its network with price appreciation to the native ETH token. Additionally, we go into depth on why Hyperliquid has been so successful in solving specialized financial problems where Ethereum could not, why Ethereum is fundamentally about sovereignty, security, and programability and why those features make it inherently valuable on a long-term time horizon. Clouted is one of the original visionaries who believes in the cypherpunk roots of cryptography, cryptocurrency, and permissionless digital assets. In a world of ever-increasing surveillance, control, and censorship, Clouted believes that Ethereum is one of the best technologies for safeguarding one's personal, financial & economic freedom.
