Hey all, before we begin, I've got some exciting news to share. We've been working on something a little wild behind the scenes. It's called Unshade On Air, a revamped livestream series and podcast feed that takes you way beyond the headlines. It features sharp, maybe even controversial, takes on major events and the kind of on chain intel that never makes it to your feed. Way more shows, way more often, each one laser focused on a different slice of crypto and finance. First up is Dex in the City, where the wallets are cold and the takes are hot with Jesse Brooks, Catherine Kirkpatrick Boz, a
Someone's on the other side of this making money. And so you have to make a decision between whether or not you, you know, want your venue to be perfectly efficient or whether you're willing to take some risk to, you know, tamp down the volatility a little bit when it comes to liquidations. And it seems like Hyperliquid is saying, like, too bad, so sad. We're not doing that. Hey, everyone.

It took me a couple days to unpack that one myself. And then Aztec is running their o

So I do like this idea of ICOs in general. I like the idea that Coinbase is doing it because you kind of have that, you know, Legion and Coinlist and others have been doing it for a while. But Coinbase doing it feels like you're safe and that you're not gonna get, like, popped four years from now or two years from now for doing it. Feels like, dude, it's publicly traded $100,000,000,0
