  • Why USDC Is Flowing From Coinbase To Hyperliquid Via Circle | Ep 508

    Thursday morning. The hosts open with the Hyperliquid liquidity story: USDC is moving from Coinbase to Hyperliquid via Circle — the CEO of Circle weighed in too, calling Aerodrome (on Base) the leading DEX. Evan and Alex unpack whether this Coinbase/Circle/Hyperliquid loop is real coordination or just the natural shape of where the money flows. Plus a quick news round: Circle stock thesis if Clarity passes, the Solana / Dromos Labs framing, and a procedural read on what's happening with the Senate markup today (Trump out of the country, Vance still here, Alex's 'scrap it and start over' take).


    Then Will joins around 38 minutes for the CRCL technical breakdown — channel positioning, oversold timing, where Circle holders are likely to start taking profits, and how a Clarity passage could trigger a 'mass jump' in the stock. The framework continues: Per as the next MicroStrategy/Coinbase-style crypto-stock outperformer, Hyperliquid still overbought on the weekly stochastic RSI, and Will's moon-trading theory (full moon buy / new moon sell — three for three so far) gets one more public test this Saturday.


    Closing sponsor block: the Adam Lowe / Arculus interview drops today on podcast platforms and YouTube. The Lucas / Jito JTX Trade interview drops at the same time — the show's RefLink scoots you up the early-access list, AND every signup unlocks their own RefLink (cascading creator network). Plus the Purple Wallet pre-orders are still live at community.rumshq.com — and if you're a creator with a trading audience, Evan and Alex want to host a feedback seminar with JTX where members get a little Solana to test the platform.

  • The DeFi Education Fund Letter Congress Doesn't Want To Hear | Ep 79🍻🌗

    Wednesday night in the After Dark — Evan, Will, and Alex working through one of the heaviest news weeks of the year. The Clarity Act draft is, in Evan's words, 'an absolute dumpster fire and a complete clusterfuck.' They walk through what's in it, where Stand With Crypto's million-advocates math doesn't add up, why DEF's letter to Congress (1000+ signatories) drawing the line on software-developer protections matters, and where the policy ethos has drifted from what crypto was originally designed for.


    Then the headline announcement: pre-orders for the co-branded RUMS x Arculus Purple Wallet are LIVE. Tonight's show is brought to you by Arculus, with a great Mark Sepulveda / St. Jude story from the Arculus booth at Consensus (Composecure powers the Gemini card, Coinbase card, MetaMask card, even Amex Platinum and Black — the joke is Arculus is probably already in your pocket). And the Jito JTX Trade pitch — Jito as the gateway to Solana DeFi, insulated from the Drift exploit, with early-access RefLinks for anyone who wants to test it before public rollout.


    Will's Bitcoin TA: May 6 cemented the local top, May 10 was a fake bullish hammer that closed below resistance, now $79.5K with no oversold signal yet on the daily. Targeting a higher low. Alex's DeFi Llama walkthrough closes the show — Circle protocol revenue $2.3B annualized, Canton $767M, and the brutal observation that most cryptos are valued at 240,000x annual revenue with no mechanism to translate protocol revenue back to token holders.

  • 240,000x Revenue Valuations — The Crypto Speculation Trap | Ep 507
    May 13 2026

    Will opens with TA — Bitcoin coiled, oil pushing through $100, Hyperliquid finally selling off (anything below $35 is a good DCA, in his view). He hands off to Alex around 22 minutes. From there it's solo Alex on the new Clarity Act draft. Page 209 to 309 is the part everyone's been waiting for, and it does what TI 020 warned about: passive yield is banned. Banks win — there's now no incentive for a depositor to move money from a savings account to a Kraken stablecoin balance to earn yield, because the stablecoin can't legally pay it. The bank lobby got what they wanted. A few crypto companies that feel secure enough have already stopped fighting.


    Then the Jito JTX Trade recap: a few weeks after the Accelerate announcement, the reception has been strong. Jito built most of the underlying infrastructure that any Solana trading platform would use anyway — they're the natural builders. Reference link for early access is in the circle. After that, Evan's spine-of-the-episode thesis: most cryptos are publicly traded representations of companies that make no money. Some are 'priced like a company worth 240,000 times its annual revenue' — that's not investing, that's pure speculation. Walk-through on DeFi Llama: Solana's app revenue is $4M/day. Ethereum: $1.5M. Hyperliquid: $1.7M. SWE: $35K. The investment case writes itself.


    Plus: why XRP/Ripple gets disproportionate treatment in the new bill draft, why Aerodrome on Base is undervalued, the KelpDAO bridge exploit fallout, and a serious answer on Chainlink ('undervalued' is the right read, but the token has weak revenue translation).

  • What Clarity Act Draft 2 Actually Does To DeFi | Ep 20⚖️
    May 13 2026

    Alex is back with the full Trust Issues lineup — Lindsay and Emily on the line, Alex on the bill. The hook is Emily's viral nine-minute video on Andrew Jackson, Wildcat Banks, and what happens when the United States purposefully debases its currency. The hidden tee-up: Lindsay had asked in the group DM what happens if non-bank financial institutions start issuing 'bonus points' for their stablecoins. Emily's reply was a novella connecting it back to 1830s monetary policy. Worth watching to understand why everyone on this episode is so alarmed by what comes next.


    Then the hosts walk through the brand-new 309-page Clarity Act draft. The headline: GENIUS Act creates the framework for non-banks to issue stablecoins (backed by treasuries; they keep the treasury yield). Clarity makes it illegal to pay any of that yield back to users — passive yield is outright banned. To earn anything as a holder, you have to take on activity-based risk (DeFi exploits, smart contract risk, liquidations, slashing, impermanent loss). The 'kneecap' is intentional. The language that the bill calls innovation-friendly — 'activity-based rewards and incentives' — is the same loophole that could let Klarna, Walmart, or Kohl's issue branded super-dollars and effectively walk us off the US dollar standard.


    The closing read from Alex: GENIUS + Clarity together build a seniorage transfer mechanism — banks and stablecoin issuers pocket the spread between treasury yield and the zero yield paid to holders. The only people winning are giant CEOs. Everyone else gets a worse product.

  • Circle Just Raised $222M For Its Own Blockchain — Should You Care? | Ep 506
    May 12 2026

    Evan and Alex are back from Consensus in Miami and Evan starts by handing Will a celebratory drink for keeping the lights on while the boys were out at Solana Accelerate. The headline news: Jito announced JTX Trade — a new on-chain trading platform designed to make Solana competitive with Hyperliquid for power traders, with a smoother on-ramp for beginners. Evan also walks through Circle's earnings report (revenue up, profit down — they're spending on USDC growth, USYC treasury-bill product, partnerships with Binance, and their ARC blockchain) and explains why a $222M raise for a new blockchain raises more questions than it answers.


    Then it's the David Courtland Arculus PSA: where to buy, what code to use (ARCURUMS10 for 10% off at getarculus.com), why Composecure-issued cards beat seed-phrase-by-default wallets, and a long tangent on why getting a tattoo of a wallet brand that won't show you your seed phrase is a bad look. Will signs off; Evan stays solo for a Bitcoin price-prediction round, an early take on the new Clarity Act draft and what it means for DeFi on/off-ramps, and a community walkthrough for anyone curious about the 10-day premium trial.

  • Circle's Banking License Is The Trade | CRCL Breakdown | Ep 40📈🤑
    May 12 2026

    Will's flying solo from Maine on Market Watch — the boys are back from Consensus but he hasn't caught up with them yet, so it's just charts and chat. Nothing's new on macro (US/Iran still a 'will they / won't they'), but the daily timeframes have moved. Will starts on Bitcoin — a rejection at the 200-day EMA on May 6 had him worried about a local top, but a strong bullish candle back above the EMA has him cautiously bullish in the very short term while still expecting a medium-term move down to $69-70K before the next leg up.


    The headline trade: Circle. Will bought heavily today — started last week around $114-115, added at $120-122, even bought at $130 ('literally the top, but long-term vision'). Total purchase on Kraken. The technical setup is the daily breaking above a descending channel for the first time; if it holds support around $126-129, the breakout target is $212 — a 63-68% move. The macro thesis: Circle's $700M/quarter revenue is structurally undervalued, the banking license coming online opens new revenue, and USDC adoption is structural. He's holding some long-term regardless.


    Solana broke its boring channel — bullish if it retests $93.5 cents as support, targeting $111.50 (~14% upside). Hyperliquid is overbought and Will expects a downside break, watching the 55-day EMA. Uniswap has ~34% potential to the upside on the daily. Plus Tron USDT, OKX, the wallet outro where Will recommends Arculus over Tangem (with the 'they pay me so grain of salt' disclosure), and Magic getting shouted out in chat for his trades.
