    Anthony Scaramucci & The Wizard of Soho: Inside the New Age of On-Chain Leverage | Markets Outlook
    Feb 20 2026
    Anthony Scaramucci and Joy Pathak discuss how decentralized exchanges and 24/7 liquidity are revolutionizing market transparency and risk management, positioning crypto as a more resilient alternative to traditional finance. Skybridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci, and The Wizard of Soho, Joy Pathak joined CoinDesk Live from Consensus Hong Kong. Pathak, a former bond trader who once managed a $40 billion portfolio at CalPERS, explains why leverage didn't die after the recent market crash—it simply moved into a new, more transparent era. He breaks down how the rise of decentralized exchanges like Hyperliquid and Aevo has handed institutional-grade tools to retail traders, creating an environment where every multi-billion dollar position is visible to the entire world in real-time. Scaramucci argues that while some Wall Street "fuddy-duddies" fear volatility, crypto’s 24/7 liquidity actually makes it a safer market than traditional finance. By comparing the ability to hedge an exogenous risk on a Sunday night to the "trapped" nature of closed bond markets, Scaramucci and Pathak illustrate why the "horseless carriage" of blockchain is destined to outrun legacy systems. - This episode was hosted live by Jennifer Sanasie and Will Foxley at Consensus Hong Kong 2026, presented by Hex Trust.

    As the crypto markets teeter on the edge, 10x Research founder, Markus Thielen, joined Consensus Live at Consensus Hong Kong to deliver a sobering reality check on bitcoin’s trajectory. Thielen explains why the recent volatility isn't just a temporary dip but the potential start of a deeper trend driven by institutional redemptions and a massive liquidity gap. He breaks down the technical "liquidity trap" that caught traders off guard following the 2024 election and explains how negative option gamma forced market makers into a selling frenzy. - This episode was hosted live by Sam Ewen and Will Foxley at Consensus Hong Kong 2026, presented by Hex Trust.
