What happens when AI, Bitcoin, debt, tokenization, and longevity all collide at the same time?

In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, Rupert Pickering is joined by Bill Barhydt, founder and CEO of Abra, one of the earliest voices in Bitcoin and crypto finance.

Bill was buying Bitcoin when it was still below $1, worked at Netscape during the birth of the consumer internet, and has spent years building in crypto, digital assets, and financial technology.

In this conversation, we discuss whether AI is overshadowing crypto, why the current AI boom may be unlike anything we have ever seen, how AGI could consume today’s LLMs as tools, and why crypto may become the foundation for a decentralized world.

We also dive deep into the late-stage debt cycle, money printing, inflation as a hidden tax on the middle class, why the rich keep getting richer, and whether Bitcoin and crypto could help break the cycle.

Bill also shares his views on stablecoins, tokenization, DeFi, Hyperliquid, Abra’s tokenized yield products, the future of always-on markets, longevity escape velocity, and why living to 130 could completely reset insurance, savings, wealth, taxes, and the entire financial system.

Finally, Bill explains how he thinks about building a portfolio today, why Bitcoin is his personal “beta,” why liquidity matters, and why he has never met a billionaire who became a billionaire through diversification.

In this episode of the All In Crypto Podcast, we are joined by Fahmi Syed, President of Midnight Foundation, to discuss one of the most important issues in blockchain today: privacy.

Fahmi explains why public blockchains may have confused transparency with truth, and why permanent on-chain visibility can become a serious problem for individuals, institutions, hedge funds, banks, enterprises, and even governments.

We explore why privacy is not just about hiding information, but about protecting identity, strategy, financial activity, personal data, medical records, business logic, and real-world adoption.

Fahmi also breaks down how Midnight uses zero-knowledge technology, selective disclosure, private smart contracts, identity, and a new tokenomics model to create privacy-first blockchain infrastructure that can support institutions, developers, Web2 companies, other blockchains, and real-world applications.

From hedge funds and public blockchain surveillance to Monument Bank, tokenized deposits, healthcare, supply chains, AI agents, Brave, and the future of data ownership, this conversation explains why Midnight believes privacy could be the missing layer for mass blockchain adoption.

In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, Rupert Pickering is joined by Jeff Dorman, CIO at ARCA, for a deep conversation on the state of markets, Bitcoin, MicroStrategy, token value accrual, HYPE, real-world tokenization, AI infrastructure, and where the real growth in blockchain may be happening.

Jeff explains why Middle East conflicts may not matter for markets as much as investors think, why equities are being driven by earnings rather than hype, and why crypto can no longer be treated as one single asset class.

He breaks down one of his most important frameworks: tokens are just wrappers. What matters is what sits inside them.

That leads into a discussion on why HYPE may be fundamentally different from Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Solana, why many crypto projects may be “good projects with bad tokens,” and why DeFi, RWA tokenization, stablecoins, payments, and AI could be the real growth areas inside blockchain.

Jeff also gives a sharp analysis of MicroStrategy, its Bitcoin position, preferred obligations, MNAV pressure, and why the company may have created a difficult capital structure problem.

A major conversation on markets, crypto, Bitcoin, tokenization, AI, and the future of digital assets.

Nothing discussed in this episode is financial advice.

Jim Bianco, Founder and President of Bianco Research, joins the AllInCrypto Podcast for a major macro conversation on AI, markets, oil, inflation, Bitcoin, Ethereum, stablecoins, and the future of the financial system.

We discuss why AI-driven market concentration may be unlike anything seen since the railroad era, why Google may have to win the AI race, and how AI could replace much of today’s software stack through one “context window.”

Jim also explains why markets may be underpricing oil and geopolitical risk, why inflation may remain higher than the pre-COVID era, and why crypto still matters beyond price speculation.

The conversation also covers stablecoins, the CLARITY Act, the GENIUS Act, whether stablecoins could help dollarize the world, and why the real fight may be about whether users can receive yield directly.

Nothing in this video is financial advice. Always do your own research.

In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, we sit down with Cody Carbone, CEO of The Digital Chamber, one of the leading voices for the digital asset industry in Washington.

Cody breaks down one of the most important moments in U.S. crypto policy: the CLARITY Act, the GENIUS Act, stablecoin regulation, SEC and CFTC token classification, institutional adoption, and the future of digital assets in America.

We discuss why the U.S. has shifted from regulatory hostility to prioritizing crypto, how pro-crypto appointments are changing policy, why stablecoins are central to U.S. dollar dominance, and how market structure legislation could unlock institutional capital and new crypto products for U.S. investors.

Cody also explains why crypto is about more than speculation. From democratizing access to financial markets, to stablecoins, tokenization, DeFi, AI agents, healthcare records, supply chains, digital identity, and a potential U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve, this conversation covers where crypto regulation and blockchain adoption may be heading next.

If you want to understand what is happening in Washington and why it matters for the future of crypto, this is a must-watch conversation.

Arthur Hayes joins the AllInCrypto Podcast for a major macro and crypto discussion.

In this episode, Arthur Hayes, Co-Founder of BitMEX and CIO at Maelstrom, breaks down why Bitcoin has been underperforming despite rising liquidity, why the AI boom may have absorbed capital away from crypto, and why oil prices, interest rates, geopolitics, MicroStrategy, and the next major market rotation could define what happens next.

We discuss whether the AI market is becoming a bubble, what could trigger a major correction, how Bitcoin could react if capital starts moving away from AI, and why Arthur believes patience may be the most important lesson for crypto investors right now.

This conversation covers Bitcoin, AI, global liquidity, oil shocks, interest rates, MicroStrategy, stablecoins, altcoins, ETFs, self-custody, and the future of crypto markets.

Watch until the end for Arthur’s key advice to anyone in crypto today.

In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, we sit down with Hugo Philion, Co-Founder of Flare, to discuss why XRP DeFi could become one of the most important opportunities in crypto.

Hugo explains why XRP was once mocked as the “banker coin,” why the industry now appears to be chasing the same institutional use case, and why Flare chose to focus on making XRP productive on-chain.

We also explore Flare’s unique architecture as a data-native Layer 1, how smart contracts and data are built directly into the network, the role of Flare in real-world assets, the future of Bitcoin and XRP, the new FLR tokenomics after FIP16, and why Hyperliquid could represent one of the biggest risks for crypto this year.

This is a deep dive into XRP, Flare, RWAs, DeFi, interoperability, FLR, and the future of programmable finance.

In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast we sit down with Jesse from Apex Crypto Insights for a deep dive into XRP, Quant, QNT, the Internet of Value, the Internet of Trust, unified ledgers, CBDCs, tokenization, global settlement infrastructure, and the future of the financial system.

Jesse shares his research into why he believes XRP and Quant could play major roles in the next era of global finance. The conversation explores XRP as a potential global settlement layer, Quant as the interoperability infrastructure connecting legacy systems to blockchain, the role of Overledger, the idea of unified ledgers, wholesale CBDCs, tokenized deposits, the Regulated Liability Network, the global RTGS thesis, and why institutional adoption may still be in its early stages.

They also discuss the broader macro backdrop, including liquidity, digital money, the evolution of payment rails, the tokenization of assets, the future of CBDCs, and why the transition from sandbox testing to live deployment could be a major catalyst for real utility.

This is a wide-ranging and thought-provoking conversation for anyone interested in XRP, QNT, Quant Network, Ripple, CBDCs, tokenization, institutional blockchain adoption, and the future of digital finance.

Today we are joined by Anthony Ralphs, Founder of Nova Modus and former Ripple, to discuss the future of money, payments and financial infrastructure.

In this conversation, we explore stablecoins, CBDCs, tokenisation, interoperability, banking, AI and the evolution of global payments. Anthony shares his perspective from years working across fintech, payments, standards, Swift, banking and crypto, including his time at Ripple and his view on why decentralised, efficient networks matter.

We also discuss whether stablecoins are mainly a retail solution or something that could eventually reshape world trade, why CBDCs are often misunderstood, how on-chain transparency could change public trust, and why technologies like the XRP Ledger were designed with efficiency in mind.

This is a deep conversation about how value moves, how financial systems are changing, and what the next generation of digital money could look like.

The decline of the US dollar is not an “if” question — it is a “when” question.

In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, we sit down with Zennon Kapron, Director at GL Insight, to discuss the future of money, stablecoins, CBDCs, digital dollarization, China, SWIFT, Ripple, Bitcoin, tokenized assets and the geopolitical battle taking place inside the global financial system.

Zennon explains why stablecoins could become crypto’s real killer use case, how the US may be using stablecoins backed by Treasuries to protect the dollar’s global role, and why governments are unlikely to build truly private CBDCs.

We also explore how Ripple helped force SWIFT to evolve, why traditional correspondent banking may eventually be replaced, how AI and agentic commerce could accelerate crypto adoption, and what a post-dollar world could look like.

This is a big-picture conversation on where crypto, banking and global finance are heading next.
