In late capitalism, not all kings built their kingdoms — some just aligned with the right rails at the right time. Michael Saylor and Tom Lee are celebrated today, but the real architects were Satoshi Nakamoto and Vitalik Buterin. In this episode, I break down the aligner’s playbook and why early positioning beats invention in today’s economy. We’ll explore how SEI Network’s bold shift from Cosmos to Ethereum’s OP Stack — and its selection by the state of Wyoming for a stablecoin pilot — makes $SEI a textbook case of early alignment with power. We’ll finish with how OTEC, my Own The Economy Coin on Base, uses the same principles to give everyday investors a way to align before the next wave hits.

Should AERO breakout at $2, it wouldn't be just retail hype — it’s a signal tied directly to why Coinbase needs Aerodrome to scale Base’s liquidity. And right next to it on my Signals sheet? Venice AI (VVV), an AI infrastructure play built for the rails AERO is powering. In this episode, I break down why these two moves are connected, why they’re aligned plays in different sectors, and why they’re both on my Signals list right now.

As Chip explores the implications of Inveniam's bet on a compliant-first blockchain, he highlights the significance of this move in the broader context of crypto technology and financial fraud.

PPP isn’t some hot new token — it’s the acronym behind billions in fraud. And in this episode, we’re looking at two very different but equally staggering cases that prove the grift didn’t end with lockdowns.

First up: Sidhartha “Sammy” Mukherjee and his wife Sunita, Bollywood performers turned alleged scammers, accused of using fake real estate contracts and forged PPP documents to defraud over 100 victims in their own North Texas Indian-American community. According to the lead investigator, “In my 23 years, this is the most prolific fraudster I’ve seen.”

Then we head to Marietta, Georgia, where Carl Delano Torjagbo was just convicted for stealing nearly $13 million through pandemic relief and IRS refund scams — using the money to buy mansions, Lamborghinis, a yacht, and even plastic surgery.

From Plano to plastic surgery, PPP fraud has taken many forms — but all of them rely on one thing: a good story. And these scammers knew exactly how to sell it.

BlackRock’s Ethereum ETF (ETHA) just smashed through $10 billion AUM. Ondo is building the liquidity rails for tokenized Treasuries. And Bitmine—yes, a Bitcoin miner—is quietly stacking Ethereum for its new treasury strategy. Together, they form BRO—BlackRock + Ondo—a meme with meaning. Because what they’re really doing is reshaping the crypto future from the inside out. In this episode, I break down how Ethereum is becoming the financial OS for the next wave of institutional capital, tokenized yield, and programmable money. This isn’t just another cycle—it’s the moment tech and finance converge on-chain. If you want to front-run where capital is going, don’t watch what the headlines say—watch what the BROs are building.

In this episode, we dive deep into the world of crypto fraud and technology. Shane Donovan Moore, a former rugby player, orchestrated a scam convincing over 40 investors to pour money into nonexistent mining rigs, offering unrealistic daily returns. This highlights the dark side of the crypto boom, showcasing how trust can be exploited in the shadows. On the other hand, we explore Coinbase's recent launch of the Base app, revealing a vision for your crypto future that may not be as bright as it seems. Beneath the polished user interface lies critical information that begs scrutiny—are these new technologies delivering real value, or just flashy illusions? Join me as I unpack these contrasting narratives: one filled with deception and fraud, and the other with potentially misleading promises of innovation in blockchain technology. The real crypto future is shaped by projects that actually deliver, not just those that shine the brightest. Stick around as we dissect these powerful stories and uncover what Coinbase calls the future—and why you might want to think critically about it.
