The Crypto Tape – Tokenization, Stablecoins, and Why Crypto Fundamentals Don't Matter (Yet) with Robert Leshner

Robert Leshner, co- founder of Superstate and creator of Compound, joins Frank Chaparro to discuss why institutional interest in tokenization hasn't translated to token prices, how stablecoins changed everything, and where real-world assets are actually headed.


In this conversation, Robert and Frank cover:

  • Why 99% of crypto markets are driven by momentum and flows, not fundamentals

  • How stablecoins reaching $100-200 billion created a tipping point for institutions

  • Why we're heading toward 200+ multi-billion dollar stablecoins coexisting

  • How streaming yield by the second changes the game for crypto-native capital

  • Why every major Wall Street institution now has teams focused on crypto
