🎙️ About This Episode

Morgan Stanley just launched its bitcoin ETF at 14bps, undercutting BlackRock and coming for a $10 trillion wealth platform — the most bullish signal of the cycle hiding in plain sight. The FDIC finally blessed Genius Act implementation, Jamie Dimon is warning JPM has to move faster on tokenization or get Blockbustered, and a Blockware chart shows bitcoin ran 175% during the most aggressive tightening cycle on record. A Tennessee crime ring got busted running wrench attacks through hacked DoorDash accounts, physical attacks on holders are up 75%, and Anthropic's Project Glasswing is exposing a new AI attack surface while the crypto world front-runs its own quantum existential crisis. Security that scales with the stakes has never mattered more.
