Talking Tokens: Crypto, Onchain Finance, Investing · Evernorth Has 473 Million XRP And An Argument to Why Idle Capital Should Not Exist | Asheesh Birla · 2 Jul 2026 podcast

I'm like, it is, but imagine when you start combining these products on chain together and enabling new kinds of use cases that weren't possible today.

enabling like a farmer to actually go out there and actually sell futures in their crop.

So that if there is a uh drought that that uh that crop season, they don't lose their shirt.

They've already been hedged.

You can't do that today, but you can when these things are all tokenized and you give 'em access.

Yeah.

Or like the story that I mentioned earlier is like

Putting your assets to work so maybe you can go out and buy that house by putting some of your other assets to work instead of having to sell them into US dollars like we're living in nineteen sixties, right?

Like why not put all the other assets to your work and get the b the house that you want?

So like that evolution's what I'm excited for.

We're not far off.

Um, but I think that that that is really when folks are gonna start seeing the power of like putting these financial products in the hands of people around the world.

Yeah, I mean like I th I think that uh well I mean there's two ways to look at the exploits.

I mean like if you look at the numbers uh as a percentage of blockchain, you know, capital, like they're s they're smaller and smaller.

And uh and secondly, like there's been very few uh more recently that where the holders have not been made whole.

So I think there is, you know, trust uh, you know, uh coming.

Uh but I also think that um there's uh this idea of institutional grade products coming out that are different than retail grade products.

And one thing that you and I started talking about was vaults.

And so what vaults are interesting to me is that one thing that's interesting to me about vaults is prior to vaults, if you wanted to get like if you want to put your li crypto to work, you had to trust some crypto bro to put that to work, right?

Like and price it.
