Venture capitalism and crypto are a pair who have not been married for long, but the results have been explosive.

Of course, like everything, it has taken a turn for the worst this week. Dan speaks with longtime VC David Siemer, CEO of Wave Financial, about all things VC and crypto.

David was a VC for the dot com bubble and the GFC in 2008, so he has seen these scenes before in the trad-fi market. Having been sent 50 bitcoins in 2010, and being a self-proclaimed risk-taker, he is now in the crypto space - so how is VC getting on through all this?

Is there a dark side to VC in crypto? Where is the bear market going? Why could now be an interesting time to invest? What about the macro situation?

This and a lot more on this week's episode.

The phrase "crypto lending" is seen as a dirty one now in the post-Celsius world, as a wave of contagion spreading through the industry caused many firms to go under in a very high-profile manner.

Today Dan speaks with Rafael Cosman, the co-founder and CEO of TrustToken, the firm behind the world's fifth biggest stablecoin, TrueUSD, and also the pioneers in uncollaterised lending.

So, is uncollaterised lending really possible, having seen what happened the last few months? Or is the capital inefficiency that overcollaterised lending brings just a necessary evil?

We also discuss the Tether reserves situation and how it compares to USDC and TrueUSD, compare CeFi vs DeFi and much more.
