The crew kicks off with Kanye’s rumored token and the broader trend of celebrity coins before diving into crypto’s market cycle—are we at the start of an institutional-led bull run, or is retail still stuck in a liquidity trap? They break down the growing role of institutional capital, massive token unlocks, and whether crypto-native projects need a new liquidity model. The conversation shifts to Uniswap v4’s innovations, exploring how it could reshape DeFi, lending, and automated trading. Finally, they tackle the rise of localized blockchains, debating whether cities, banks, and states launching their own L2s and stablecoins is inevitable—or just another crypto pipe dream.
