Pump.fun Just Raised $600M. What Does This Mean for DeFi, Solana & Social Media?
What if crypto’s next big narrative isn’t DeFi, but financial entertainment? The weeks leading up to Pump.fun’s ICO were contentious: accusations that it was extractive, debates over decentralization, and outrage over allocations. In the end, the company pulled off the third-largest ICO in crypto history, raising $600 million in 12 minutes. The day of, Solana barely flinched under the load, and onchain platforms like Hyperliquid and Raydium left CEXes looking outdated. In this episode of Unchained, Haseeb Qureshi of Dragonfly and Joe McCann of Asymmetric join Laura to break down: Whether this marks the return of ICOs The objections to the small ($10 million) airdrop to creators How Pump.fun’s ambitions could reshape memecoins, and maybe Solana itself And why TikTok might not need to worry just yet

Why Phantom Is Launching Perps + Why Bit Digital Ditched BTC for ETH
In this double-header, Phantom’s cofounder explains why it launched perps powered by Hyperliquid. Plus, a Bitcoin miner explains why they sold 280 BTC to go all-in on Ethereum. In the first half of this dual episode, Phantom co-founder Brandon Millman joins Unchained to break down why his Solana-first wallet is launching perpetual swaps, and why it chose to integrate with Hyperliquid over any Solana-native option. Then, Bit Digital’s Sam Tabar explains why the public company ditched its profitable Bitcoin mining business, went all-in on ETH, and what happened when he told Michael Saylor.
The Chopping Block: Paul Grewal on Regulation, Tokenization, and Crypto’s Next Legal Frontier
Welcome to The Chopping Block – where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. In this episode, the gang is joined by Paul Grewal, Chief Legal Officer at Coinbase, for a wide-ranging conversation on crypto’s next big frontier: tokenized stocks. From Robinhood’s controversial attempt to tokenize SpaceX and OpenAI shares to the legal and structural hurdles around pre-IPO derivatives, the crew dives deep into what it really takes to bring Wall Street on-chain. They also unpack the regulatory momentum behind the Genius and Clarity Acts, the return of ICO mania with Pump.fun’s $1B token raise, and the absurdly viral drama of Suitgate on Polymarket. Is this a new era of regulated innovation—or are we just recreating old problems on new rails? Tune in for sharp takes, legal insight, and a few laughs along the way.

Why Privacy & Storytelling Will Define the Next Breakout Blockchain
For EP33 of *Chain Reactions*, we sat down with Azeem Khan, longtime crypto operator and now co-founder of the privacy-first ZK blockchain Miden*,* to discuss what it takes to build a next-gen L1 in today’s market. We trace Azeem’s journey from Bitcoin blog posts and Kardashian cease-and-desists to running major BD at Gitcoin, closing partnerships with UNICEF, and now helping lead Miden, which just raised a $25M seed round co-led by a16z, 1kx, and Hack VC. We went deep on what it means to be a non-technical co-founder in a zero-knowledge protocol, why founder-led BD still beats most Web3 growth strategies, and how Miden’s Pioneer Program is flipping the playbook by taking a venture studio approach to ecosystem building. Plus, we talk about astronauts as mascots, Taylor Swift as a blueprint for community, and why the best crypto brands borrow from culture, not crypto Twitter. If you’re building an L1, supporting one, or just want to hear how thoughtful storytelling and asymmetric relationship capital can help turn a new chain into a category-defining ecosystem — this one’s a must.

Bits + Bips: DATs Are Crypto's Biggest Trend. So Why Aren't They Boosting Markets?
In this episode of Bits + Bips, we examine how rising global trade tensions could impact macro conditions, the Fed’s next move, and market stability. We also explore how investors should position themselves with inflation cooling and an uncertain policy path at the Fed. We then look at what’s happening on the crypto side: volume shifting to tokenized public equities, the growing number of corporate stablecoin plans, and whether the promise of tokenization is matched by meaningful traction. Joining hosts Joe McCann, Ram Ahluwalia, and Steve Ehrlich is Rob Hadick of Dragonfly, who shares his perspective on product-market fit in crypto, shifting market structure, and where real adoption may emerge.
How Creator Coins Actually Work (And Why Most Fail)
The trio returns while David’s on beach duty. Coop accidentally launches his creator coin, the fellas cover the state of onchain creation, what’s working, and what still feels broken. 🔟 Top Moments (03:00) Daniel Allan laser show recap – nearly sold out, first show with full production. (06:30) Coop's late-night Zora token launch – unintentionally launched his creator coin at 5:30am in a diner. (08:20) Creator Coin strategies – posting videos, airdropping to top holders, experimenting with Noise. (09:30) Are creator coins working? – discussion on upside, missing mechanics, and how activity drives value. (12:20) Farcaster vs Coinbase Wallet – video wars heating up, platforms converging on short-form content. (22:50) New Coop Records platform launch – email signups, coin sections, follow features, credits instead of ETH. (25:50) Song coin economics – using mint fees to buy back tokens; focus on rewarding tastemakers. (17:10) Onchain monetization still lacking – long tail can earn $500, but no breakout case for high-profile creators yet. (35:00) Tokenized stocks on Arbitrum – Robinhood, Kraken, and maybe Coinbase exploring stock coins. (42:00) Conferences vs Building – crypto events losing their edge; focus shifting to product and strategy.

Why JPMorgan and Shopify Are Rolling Out New Products on Ethereum Layer 2 Base - Ep. 855
On Tuesday, JPMorgan announced that its blockchain unit is launching JPMD, a USD deposit token for institutional clients, on Base. That’s right: the world’s biggest bank by assets and the 12th largest company by market cap is putting real dollars onchain. JPMD isn’t quite a stablecoin, but it’s close. It represents actual dollar deposits at JPMorgan and will be used by institutional clients for blockchain-based transactions. The bank plans to run a pilot over the coming months and eventually expand it to other user groups and currencies, pending regulatory approval. To understand what this means for the broader crypto ecosystem (and why JPMorgan chose Base), we brought on Jesse Pollak, head of Base and Coinbase Wallet. In this episode, Jesse explains: Why JPMorgan (and Shopify) chose Base What deposit tokens are, and how they differ from stablecoins Why infrastructure is finally “ready” for institutions How Base scaled from 2.5 million to 35 million gas/sec What’s next for Coinbase users who’ll have one-tap access to onchain assets And Jesse’s response to the critics who said that Coinbase doesn’t give enough credit to Ethereum

Most Startups Misunderstand Incentives feat. Joseph Al-Chami
The future of crypto might not be bots, bulls**t, and broken incentives — but first, we have some serious receipts to go through. This week we are joined by researcher Joseph Al-Chami for a wide-ranging dive into the biggest consumer crypto stories of the week — and an honest reckoning with how points systems, appcoins, agentic investors, and open social graphs are actually playing out. From Circle’s IPO drama to AI SEO strategies, we’re connecting the dots on what’s really happening across consumer crypto, AI, and internet culture. We kick off with a quickfire rundown of Appcoins, AI discoverability, and the death spiral of poorly launched tokens, before moving into a deep, revealing conversation with Joseph about the hidden dangers behind points-based growth strategies — and why blind copying Duolingo-style gamification just doesn’t work for crypto projects. This episode unpacks: * Ohara’s new Appcoin model and the future of vibe coding * AI SEO tactics and why discoverability is about to change forever * Why launching a token will not save you * The rise and potential fall of Circle’s stablecoin empire * The launch of LensChain and the mini-app revolution on Farcaster * How agentic investors are creating novelty arbitrage (for now) * Open social graphs vs. corporate controlled platforms * Why vanity metrics are destroying crypto ecosystems * A real breakdown of why “points and quests” mostly attract bots * How to build loyalty systems that actually work Chapters: 0:00 — Intro and a Brand New Home 00:39 — Live Show Chaos and Vibe Check 01:50 — Market Sentiment and Real Builders 03:09 — Introducing Joseph Al-Chami and Topics 04:53 — Appcoins, Vibe Coding, and Token Models 08:11 — AI SEO and Discoverability Shifts 12:55 — Why Launching Tokens Can Fail 16:11 — Circle’s IPO Drama and Fallout 19:38 — LensChain, Open Social, and Mini-Apps 24:16 — Farcaster Airdrops and Notification Burnout 26:51 — Rise of Agentic Investors and Novelty 29:09 — “It’s All Base’s Fault” Twitter Meltdown 30:14 — Credible Neutrality and Blockchain Trust 32:59 — Joseph’s Research on Points Farming 39:48 — How to Build Real Loyalty Internet Explorers is a weekly rundown show where extremely online individuals broadly explore (romanticize, even) new consumer Internet experiences.
