Product Airdrops, BTC Reserves and Stablecoins UP!

Season 2 Episode 5

Join Professor Chris as he welcomes DJ Robert Williams from Talisman back on panel as we look at the news of the week and how to interpret it for you, our dear users. Here's some things we talked about today:

VanEck's Matthew Sigel has a new digital asset primitive that he thinks could be helpful in helping the US government finance 14T in debt over 3 years, called BitBonds. 

We also talk about the market landscape post-tariffs, as gold is at an all-time high and there's apparent crypto-bonds-equities decoupling on the horizon.

Chris is upset with himself that he missed the window for the very interesting dGEN1, which will have a unique airdrop along with it. They talk about other airdrops tied to products in DeFi.

Talking about the news of the week with the DOJ/SEC shutterings, and how stablecoins continue to be the killer app of crypto as we talk about several decentralized "virtual accounts" where you can store stables and then spend them with virtual and physical debit cards in conjunction with Mastercard and Visa.

...and more!
