Crypto holding steady amid ongoing Middle East tensions (US-Iran conflict ~3 weeks in, oil volatility high, equities pressured — BTC ~70K range resilient, no major flush). Guest Eamonn Gashier (Founder, Block Scholes) joins Imran & David: ex-TradFi trader (16 years in investment banks/hedge funds) who dove into crypto in 2017, left banking in 2021. Block Scholes evolved from options vol analytics (built for their own trading needs) into a leading Oracle provider — delivering real-world data (commodities, oil, etc.) on-chain for DEX settlement/liquidations. Volumes exploding on DEXs (especially during weekend/geopolitical gaps when TradFi is closed). Hype token example shows real utility winning. Outlook: bullish on capital inflows + adoption (institutional + AI execution bots); selective on alts (focus utility/economics, not memes). Macro: central banks trapped (supply shocks vs. growth risks, financial repression likely) — tailwind for BTC as non-sovereign asset. Great discussion covering a lot of bases.
