Introduction:
In this episode, we delve into three major stories shaping the financial landscape. First, we examine Ethereum’s remarkable evolution over the past decade into a $420 billion platform quietly becoming the backbone of Wall Street’s financial systems—and why co-founder Vitalik Buterin is concerned that institutional adoption by giants like BlackRock might undermine its foundational mission. Next, we analyze Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway’s recent $3.76 billion write-down on its Kraft Heinz stake, alongside a significant decline in profits and a near-record $344 billion cash reserve, signaling caution amid economic uncertainty. Finally, we explore fresh Bureau of Labor Statistics data revealing a sharp slowdown in U.S. job growth—258,000 fewer jobs than initially reported—and consider how corporate AI adoption could be playing a key role in this shifting labor market dynamic.
