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.

James Wynn’s Fall, Ethereum’s Rise, and the Death of the Foundation Era – The Chopping Block

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 crew tackles a triple-header of crypto’s growing pains: the bizarre saga of James Wynn—a memecoin gambler whose billion-dollar positions on Hyperliquid ended in public ruin; the Ethereum Foundation’s surprise rebrand into “Protocol” and its sudden embrace of hierarchy; and a bold manifesto from Miles Jennings calling for the end of crypto foundations as we know them. Is radical transparency a feature or a trap? Is Ethereum finally prioritizing execution over vibes? And are foundations just offshore theater—or necessary guardians of decentralization? The gang debates all this and more in a conversation that asks: who’s really in control of crypto—and should they be? Show highlights 🔹 James Wynn: From $1B to $16 – The infamous Hyperliquid trader wipes out, then begs for donations… and opens new positions days later 🔹 Liquidation Theater – Was Wynn’s downfall market manipulation, a psyop, or just crypto doing what it always does? 🔹 Hyperliquid Transparency Debate – CZ, Jump, and Hyperliquid clash over whether radical openness helps or harms 🔹 Stop-Hunting Season – Tarun explains why onchain liquidation is more deterministic—but not necessarily more malicious 🔹 Ethereum Foundation Rebrands – Meet “Protocol”: a new structure, a new strategy, and maybe… a new hierarchy 🔹 The End of Purge & Surge – Is Ethereum finally abandoning the meme roadmap and focusing on shipping? 🔹 Tim Beiko’s New Role – A surprising centralization of coordination—and why the ETH community seems to like it 🔹 DUCS vs. DUNA – The crew proposes a new Ethereum acronym—and debates Miles Jennings’ push to end the foundation model 🔹 Are Foundations Just Offshore Theater? – Haseeb argues it’s time to kill the Cayman entity and rethink DAO legal structures 🔹 The Legal Marketing Wars – Tarun and Tom debate whether crypto’s governance evolution is genuine—or just “intellectual shilling”

Remix the Remix: How MRKD.dj Is Rewiring Music Ownership and IP for Web3 enabled World

What if DJs could remix, monetize, and own music like never before? In this mind-expanding episode, I sit down with Jaime Schwarz — brand strategist, NFT patent holder, and founder of MRKD.dj — to explore how blockchain is redefining music ownership, IP, and co-creation. From remix rights to fan distribution and Keith Shocklee’s role in launching a new creative economy, this episode hits every note. We dive deep into: - Why Web3 needs better ownership models - How MRKD.dj turns DJs into prosumers and remixers - The story behind the first-ever NFT patent - Rethinking the future of digital music, NFTs, and identity Jaime believes blockchain is the missing layer for the IP economy — offering permanence, provenance, and programmable rights at scale. In a world where AI is eating the service economy, he sees IP as the next frontier of value — and music, with its deep-rooted remix culture and licensing complexity, as the ideal first use case. MRKD.dj isn’t just about tracks — it’s about unlocking a future where artists, DJs, and fans co-create, co-own, and get rewarded in real-time.

From surprise NFT airdrops, to warp whale drama, to the realization that even 250,000 warps can’t buy you onchain friends, this episode proves that crypto’s greatest feature is still its ability to turn status symbols into jokes—live, on air, and with impeccable comedic timing.
