  • Logan Jastremski: Solana vs Hyperliquid - Who Wins The Global Exchange Race?
    Feb 2 2026

    Join Tommy Shaughnessy as he speaks with Logan, Managing Partner of Frictionless Capital, about the high-stakes race to build a global blockchain-based financial system. Logan shares his updated thesis on why monolithic, high-throughput architectures like Solana are winning the battle for real revenue and trading dominance over modular designs.They dive deep into the "Global Exchange" vision, the physics of time-to-inclusion, and how innovations like Proprietary AMMs (PropAMMs) are redefining market making. Logan also explores the broader implications of AI, from the compounding power of Grok to the societal impact of a robot-led workforce.🎯 Key Highlights▸Analyzing the Frictionless chart showing that crypto apps on Solana are the fastest to reach $100M in revenue globally.▸ Why Logan remains bearish on the "incorrect" modular design and Layer 2 scaling solutions. ▸ How the speed of light and server location prevent current centralized exchanges from being truly global. ▸ A look at the next engineering frontier. ▸ The "crypto-native" evolution of order books that uses massive Oracle updates to eliminate stale quotes. ▸ Why Logan believes the market will split into either fully regulated exchanges or fully decentralized global engines. ▸ Why Elon Musk's Grok is positioned to be the smartest model over time. ▸ The "freaky" transition to humanoid automation and the potential for a 20-day "atom-moving" data center revolution.💡 Want to stay updated with the latest in crypto & AI?

  • Nic Carter: Quantum Threatens $600B of Bitcoin
    Jan 9 2026
    Join Tommy Shaughnessy as he speaks with Nic Carter, partner at Castle Island Ventures, about his deep dive into the existential threat quantum computing poses to Bitcoin. After six months of intensive research and discussions with Nobel Prize-winning physicists, Nic breaks down why the "quantum threat" has moved from theoretical FUD to a material risk that the Bitcoin community is currently unprepared to face.They explore the "Q-Day" timeline, the vulnerability of Satoshi’s 2 million BTC, and the urgent need for a migration to post-quantum cryptography. Can Bitcoin’s rigid governance survive the most significant technical challenge in its history, or will sovereign nations and private firms reach the coins first?🎯 Key Highlights▸Why Nic stepped away from podcasts and TV to focus on precise technical writing.▸The 2025 Quantum Inflection: Why 2025 was a record year for quantum investment.▸The Trillion Dollar Bug Bounty: The "unsolvable" problem of Satoshi’s P2PK addresses.▸Why Bitcoin developers implemented Taproot without making it quantum-resistant.▸Defense in Depth for BTC: The technical hurdles of implementing post-quantum signature schemes and the potential for a mandatory "migration" period.▸How the U.S.–China rivalry mirrors the 1939 race for the atomic bomb.▸Applying maritime law to the potential "theft" of ancient Bitcoins by private firms like IBM or Microsoft.▸Scoring the Bitcoin core developers’ preparedness at a 1/100.💡 Want to stay updated with the latest in crypto & AI?
