Scarcity: Alpha, Tungsten, Dinosaur Bones
🌟Guest: Daniel Matuszewski, Co-founder of CMS Holdings @cmsholdings
🎤Host: Jeremy Wallis, Partner at Gate Ventures @Fintechblocks
Bitcoin, a 41-pound tungsten cube, and a 70-million-year-old skeleton. Three very different assets, one shared question: what actually makes something scarce — and who decides what that scarcity is worth?
Our guest Daniel Matuszewski, Co-founder of CMS Holdings and former Head of Trading at Circle, has spent four cycles trading scarcity in every form it comes in. He joins us to talk about where crypto liquidity goes when it leaves the screen.
We'll cover:
🔹Bitcoin, tungsten, fossils — which purchase still best expresses how he thinks about scarce assets
🔹Tungsten cubes: a density meme that became a position, or a real analog to hard money?
🔹Fossil price discovery from Stan to Apex to Gus — how it rhymes with a thin alt going parabolic on one venue
🔹Diligencing a skeleton like a token: provenance, composites, and what the fossil equivalent of a rug looks like
🔹The private fossil market vs. early crypto OTC — same information asymmetry, same counterparty risk, older collateral
🔹Would a "dinosaur index" or tungsten futures market ever be tradable — and what's the next dino trade?

Future of Crypto Banking: Anchorage's Vision for Institutional Digital Assets
🌟Guest: Nathan McCauley, CEO & Co-Founder of Anchorage Digital @Anchorage@nathanmccauley
🎤Host: Jeremy Wallis, Partner of Gate Ventures @Fintechblocks
Most institutions still treat digital assets as a specialized allocation, not a line on the balance sheet. The gap isn't conviction — it's banking infrastructure. Custody, settlement, and rails that a regulated institution can actually underwrite.
Our guest Nathan McCauley, CEO and Co-Founder of Anchorage Digital — the first federally chartered crypto bank in the U.S. — joins us to unpack what real crypto banking looks like, and what it takes to earn institutional trust at scale.
We'll cover:
🔹How a federal banking charter reshapes product, onboarding, and true banking rails — not just custody
🔹The remaining friction for institutions holding, moving, and settling crypto at scale
🔹Where on-chain settlement meets traditional rails, and who bridges the two
🔹Anchorage's place in the stablecoin & tokenized deposit stack as regulated cash products arrive
🔹Hardening security: key management and operational controls after the industry's biggest incidents
🔹Innovation speed vs. the conservative risk posture of a chartered bank
🔹What the industry still underestimates about earning institutional trust

✅ Jed's 13-year arc: MIT mining days → Circle/USDC → Accomplice DeFi fund → Breed VC
✅ Is AI the new 2021 bubble? "Anthropic is basically saying they're building God" — and why crypto is the contrarian play
✅ Founder psychology: grit, trauma, and the "revenge founder" archetype — why a chip on the shoulder beats a comfortable past exit
✅ RWA thesis: tokenizing equities, pre-IPO shares (SpaceX at $1.75T), mineral rights, power contracts
✅ What tier-1 VC backing actually signals to retail — and 3 metrics to always check: token float, lockup schedule, social media authenticity

Topic: DeFi's Real Game — What Web3 VCs Know That Retail Doesn't
🎙️Jed Breed @JedBreed, Founder & GP of Breed VC
🎙️Jeremy Wallis @Fintechblocks, Gate Ventures Partner
Few people in crypto have operated across all four of these vantage points simultaneously:
— BTC miner (2014)
— Head of Digital Assets at Circle, instrumental in launching USDC
— DeFi market-neutral fund manager at Accomplice
— Pre-seed crypto VC
This episode covers:
— How Web3 VCs actually generate returns and exit
— What the GENIUS Act genuinely unlocks for US founders
— RWA in 2026: real institutional adoption or recycled narrative?
— The metrics retail consistently misreads: TVL, volume, and VC backing

USD stablecoins dominate 99% of the market.
But the other 1% just grew 16x in 3 years.
Local currency stablecoin supply is up 70%. On-chain transfer volume went from $600M to $10B. EURC is live on Aave and Visa Direct. BRLA hit $400M+ transfer volume in Feb 2026. XSGD is quietly settling Grab × Alipay+ in the background.
And @circle StableFX is now trying to connect all of them — with RFQ mechanics and PvP atomic settlement. Essentially an on-chain FX network.
The $9.6T/day FX market hasn't been disrupted yet. But the plumbing is being laid — and most people haven't noticed.

Since our last pulse check at the beginning of March:
→ added ~$1B in total value locked
