Chuck Bradford is the co-founder and CEO of Dexari, a new mobile-first trading application built on Hyperliquid.

In this episode, Chuck breaks down his mission to deliver a best-in-class user experience for traders in crypto while staying true to the original, cypherpunk mission statement of crypto: sovereignty, self-custody, and self-direction.

Having worked previously at BinanceUS, Chuck brings a wealth of unique industry-side perspective into how new applications should be built, why decentralization matters, and offers some great analysis on the changing landscape of centralized vs decentralized financial applications.

Chuck and I also discussed how the Hyperliquid ecosystem has been a massive unlock for builders looking to deliver new financial products, the importance of solving financial products before anything else in the crypto industry, the new regulatory regime in the United States, as well as the future of Hyperliquid (HYPE) and its growing ecosystem of products.
