CRYPTO 101

In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, former CFTC Chairman Chris Giancarlo returns to discuss why the Clarity Act failed, why he believes it is likely dead for now, and why the SEC and CFTC are moving quickly to write crypto rules anyway. He explains that both agencies had rule proposals ready before the vote failed, and that the next two years could create a full regulatory framework for digital assets even without Congress passing a comprehensive bill. Giancarlo also previews his new book, The New Adventures of Crypto Dad, and makes the case that the next major fight is financial freedom, privacy, and preventing the digital financial system from becoming a surveillance tool.

In this Crypto Rundown, Tevo and Brian kick off October by breaking down why Bitcoin’s strong September momentum could set up a major Q4 for crypto. They explain how Bitcoin, Ethereum, and software stocks flipped from early-year weakness into major winners, why retail still does not appear fully back, and why that leaves room for more upside if the bull market continues. The episode covers October seasonality, Google Trends interest, and altcoin momentum is in the news!

In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, Eddie Zhang, founder and CEO of Arcus, joins Bryce and Brendan to explain how Arcus became the leading DEX on Robinhood Chain. He breaks down why the team shifted toward RWAs, tokenized equities, and equity perpetuals after 10/10 exposed major weaknesses in crypto market structure, including centralized price dependency, correlated collateral, and liquidation risk. The conversation covers Robinhood Chain, perpetual contracts, tokenized stocks, stock tokens as collateral, zero-fee stock trading, global access to American equities, and why perps may become a simpler alternative to options for many traders.

With the momentum in the NEAR Token we wanted to release this interview from the Out East Conference this July so there may be some backadated info around Clarity Act but the NEAR info is still timely!
In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, Abhishek Vaidyanathan, Chief Legal Officer at the Near Foundation, joins from the Out East Summit to explain how Near is building at the intersection of AI, intents, privacy, and programmable assets. He breaks down how Near Intents started with cross-chain asset swaps and has already expanded to more than 100 assets across 30-plus blockchains, with roughly 20 billion in volume. The conversation covers AI agents, machine-to-machine payments, agent marketplaces, quantum resistance, collapsing app interfaces, model routing, regulatory clarity, tokenized equities, and why crypto may become the natural payment layer for AI. Abhishek also explains what is next for Near as the token price sees a lot of momentum this fall.
