How We Scale Content with AI Automations
In this episode of The Optimism Show, Kris Gligoroski and Vittorio unpack what’s worked for the show’s recent growth: using short-form as trailers, building automated repurposing systems, prioritizing psychographics over simple demographics, and treating companies as media-first businesses.

Plasma's Successful Launch, Revenue Over TVL & the Future of Pump.fun
How do stablecoin-first blockchains win distribution? Does TVL actually map to value? And why speculation may become the default language of online culture. In this 3-part episode, we explore three different important stories. Segment 1: CoinFund’s Seth Ginns explains how newly launched stablecoin chain Plasma aims to compete, plus why the “stablecoin race” with Circle and Stripe is just beginning. Segment 2: Solana Foundation president Lily Liu lays out why revenue—not TVL—should be crypto’s north-star metric, whether TVL can be easily gamed, and what a better DeFi metric stack looks like. Segment 3: Figment Capital’s James Parillo makes the case for Pump.fun and “AudienceFi”: how creator coins can financialize streaming, whether token collapses are a feature, and why both perps and memecoins rhyme with gambling.
The Chopping Block: Perp Wars & Stablecoin Battles: Hyperliquid, Aster, Tether
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. This week, we’re joined by Farooq Malik, co-founder and CEO of Rain, as two parallel wars erupt across crypto: the Perp DEX war between Hyperliquid and the CZ-backed Aster, and the deepening battle for stablecoin dominance. As Aster rockets to $30B in daily volume, we debate whether it’s real adoption or points-fueled froth — and what it means for Hyperliquid’s lead. Then we dive into Tether’s shocking $500B valuation play, Circle’s shrinking moat, and how Rain is building real-world rails for stablecoin payments. If crypto has two new battlegrounds — trading venues and money itself — this is where the future is getting drawn. Show highlights 🔹 DEX Wars: Aster vs. Hyperliquid – Aster hits $30B daily volume; is it real demand or a points-fueled surge? Hyperliquid’s dominance faces its first real threat. 🔹 CZ’s Return to Form – Aster’s Binance links, aggressive fee model, and possible “James Wynn” conspiracy theory raise the stakes in the perp DEX arena. 🔹 Wash Trading & Open Interest Gaps – Aster’s $2B TVL contrasts with $1.25B open interest vs. Hyperliquid’s $10B, sparking questions about organic traction. 🔹 Incentive Wars – Aster rewards takers 2x over makers; Hyperliquid and Blur praised for long-game design that built sticky liquidity instead of short-term volume. 🔹 The Execution Advantage – Haseeb: “Asia executes better than it innovates”; Aster may stumble now but could out-iterate and outscale its rivals. 🔹 Stablecoin Shockwave: Tether’s $500B Valuation Leak – Tether quietly seeks $15–20B in private funding, aiming for a $500B valuation—matching OpenAI and SpaceX. 🔹 Circle vs. Tether – Circle trades at 0.5x supply, Tether seeks 3x; the panel debates margins, moat, and whether USDC can survive the “reverse momentum.” 🔹 Rain’s Real-World Stablecoin Rails – Farooq Malik shares how Rain powers payroll, P2P, cards, and merchant payments on stablecoins—without touching fiat. 🔹 New Use Cases: Stablecoins in the Wild – On-chain credit cards, just-in-time lending, cross-border Facebook ad funding, and more—all enabled by 24/7 money. 🔹 Global Adoption: LatAm, MENA, Asia – Rain’s data shows stablecoin usage exploding outside the U.S., especially in regions with FX controls and unstable banks.

Why Launching a New Stablecoin Is Insanely Difficult And Why He Did It Anyway! with Joseph from Nerite
In this episode I sit down with Joseph, also known as CupoJOSΞPH, for a deep dive into the world of decentralized finance and the fascinating journey that led to the creation of Nerite—a feature-packed stablecoin protocol on Arbitrum. From Joseph’s early days impressing a crush by learning Solidity and his time working at ConsenSys during the launch of DAI, to experimenting with unpegged stablecoins like RAI and Open Dollar, you’ll get an insider look at how stablecoins have evolved—and the hard lessons learned along the way. Joseph and Gramajo unpack why most users say they want non-USD pegged stablecoins but rarely use them, the challenge of driving adoption for genuinely novel DeFi tech, and what it means to build for “users who lie.” They also explore the special sauce behind Nerite—borrowing at self-selected interest rates, supporting multiple types of collateral, composable design, and native money streaming via Superfluid (no wrapping required!). You’ll hear about the double-edged sword of immutability, the power of combining governance rights with DeFi utility, and why the Nerite team isn’t chasing decentralization theater with pointless frontends. 08:52 How Dai Maintains $1 Peg 14:11 "Liquidy V2: Superior Stablecoin Security" 15:59 "Liquidy V2 Licensing Model" 25:48 Delayed Compensation Critique 31:07 "Nerite Superfluid Token Feature" 31:53 Innovative Real-Time Payment System 39:49 Customizable Loan Interest Rates 45:39 Governance Token Trade-off Issues 50:28 "Neurite DAO's Role in Arbitrum" 56:40 Collateral Limitations and Future Adaptation 01:03:37 Developers' Challenges in Crypto 01:04:29 "Challenges of Building for Users"

Debate: Should Stablecoin Chains Have an Ethereum L2 or Their Own L1?
Tempo announcing it would not become an Ethereum layer 2 sparked a fierce discussion on X. Justin Bons and Haonan Li zoom back and debate it all. In this episode, Cyber Capital’s Justin Bons and Codex’s Haonan Li challenge the new orthodoxy: whether payments chains should be alt L1s or Ethereum L2s, how “neutrality” and finality matter for real-world transactions, and why fragmentation could make or break onchain dollars. We dig into Stripe’s Tempo (and its permissioned start), what it would take for L2s to reach true decentralization, and whether stablechains undercut general-purpose chains Plus: the trade-offs of sequencers, paying gas in dollars, and whether protocol-native stables are the future.
