CLOB Battles, Disclosure Fights, and the Meme-ification of Circle – 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. This week, we’re joined by Vlad, the leverage legend behind Lighter, a zk-powered DEX taking aim at Hyperliquid in the rising CLOB wars. We unpack the new Token Transparency Framework from Blockworks and whether self-regulation can fix crypto’s disclosure problem. Should VC wallets be public? Are market-making deals legally risky? And why do most projects still say nothing? Plus: Vlad explains how Lighter uses zero-knowledge proofs to enforce fairness and fight toxic flow—without harming retail. And Circle’s stock goes full meme mode, TikTok retail piles in, and Robert reveals he’s short. Is crypto finally growing up—or just evolving its chaos?

Why We’re Irresponsibly Long DeFi
In this special crossover episode, we take the hot seat as guests for the first time, to talk about why we remain so bullish on DeFi! Guided by Wallfacer Podcast host Ryan Rodenbaugh, we cover a wide range of investor topics including how Bitcoin’s ideological roots still shape today’s industry, why Ethereum and ETH remain fundamentally undervalued, the growing tension between narratives and reality in crypto, and how our perspective as DeFi users informs how we invest as angels. We even share some of the actual protocols and tokens we’ve been allocating to, something we rarely do in such detail. Special thanks to our friend Ryan for hosting! He is the CoFounder & CEO of Wallfacer Labs, the team behind vaults.fyi, connecting users directly to 500+ DeFi vaults across 50+ protocols and 10+ blockchain networks.

Andrew Power Has a Picture of Delroy Edwards
Andrew Power is a DJ and producer from Toronto, ON. Under the alias Andrew Juke, one might describe his eclectic style as "hard style rave-core" meets "post-covid-footwork." When he's not behind his PC blasting out 303 melodies and boosting the low-end on his latest bootleg remix, he's hangin' online, walking the city, or keeping up with the latest trends in men's fashion. Earlier this summer, Andrew let me brush the back of my hand against his The Row hoodie. He also runs the IG page Collected Searching, where he unearths archived internet search phrases with dark and sometimes illegal undertones. Topics discussed in this episode: - L.A.

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

PMFers with David Phelps
In this episode, we sit down with David Phelps—co-founder of JokeRace—to trace his journey from Craigslist tutoring gigs to designing experimental onchain voting systems with real users and real incentives. David shares how building a Stripe-powered tutoring DAO before DAOs were cool helped him see the future of crypto, and how a silly game about bad jokes on Twitter turned into a full-blown governance product used by the Ethereum Foundation. We get into the weeds on distribution, incentives, and why rivalries—not kumbaya—are the key to real community. David also explains why most crypto tooling forgets the user, how founders should think about power users vs. normies, and why vote-and-earn is a controversial but necessary experiment in finding PMF for crypto-native governance. 👀 Topics: – Building pre-Ethereum DAOs with Stripe Connect – The surprising origins of JokeRace – Onchain incentives vs. community vibes – Crypto Twitter as your harshest and best validator – Power users, product scope creep, and when to ignore feedback – Why AI might be overrated for great devs – The Ethereum Foundation’s role in app distribution (and why it should fuck up more) Whether you’re building a governance tool, trying to make voting less boring, or just thinking about what makes online communities actually work, this one’s packed with insight and real talk.

Arthur Hayes and Hanson Birringer on Hyperliquid’s Success (And What Could Stop It)
Hyperliquid is one of the most talked-about platforms in crypto right now. It’s an onchain perpetuals exchange that sidestepped VCs, built a deeply loyal user base, and launched with transparency most rivals avoid. But it’s also staring down some massive challenges—from incoming competitors like Coinbase and Robinhood, to the technical hurdles of decentralizing its core exchange engine. Arthur Hayes, CIO of Maelstrom and one of crypto’s most iconic traders, and Hanson Birringer of Flowdesk discuss: What actually drove Hyperliquid’s success How a user-first approach is outpacing venture-backed models Whether the James Wynn saga was legit Why the HIP-3 proposal could be the “holy grail” for DEXes And whether Hyperliquid can survive its next big test: the entrance of giants
