Description

This week, Ryan and David unpack Circle’s stunning IPO debut, soaring to a $25B market cap and triggering Wall Street’s stablecoin frenzy. They break down the landmark Genius Act vote, bringing unprecedented regulatory clarity to stablecoins, and dive into Stripe’s latest crypto bet, acquiring wallet innovator Privy. Polymarket goes mainstream in an official integration with Twitter, while SEC Chair Paul Atkins embraces DeFi as fundamentally American. Plus, Gemini quietly files for IPO, Plasma’s billion-dollar Tether chain ignites, and Trump unexpectedly endorses crypto at Coinbase. ------ 📣LIMITLESS | SUBSCRIBE & FOLLOW https://pod.link/1813210890 https://x.com/LimitlessFT 📣BANKLES JOBS | COME WORK WITH US https://x.com/i/jobs/1929889475783520481 https://x.com/i/jobs/1929890683927638133 https://x.com/i/jobs/1915861900677812658 ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 🪙FRAX | SELF SUFFICIENT DeFi https://bankless.cc/Frax 🦄UNISWAP | SWAP ON UNICHAIN https://bankless.cc/unichain 🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORK https://bankless.cc/Mantle 🌐SELF | PROVE YOUR SELF https://bankless.cc/Self 🟠BINANCE | THE WORLDS #1 CRYPTO EXCHANGE https://bankless.cc/binance ------ TIMESTAMPS & RESOURCES 0:00 Intro 3:59 Markets https://x.com/KobeissiLetter/status/1932526577897595233 https://x.com/rovercrc/status/1930951805191778369 https://x.com/hosseeb/status/1931457548760334723 https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1932695486684950962 https://x.com/DavidShapiro98/status/1932696393937785058 https://x.com/blknoiz06/status/1932072994731647435 https://x.com/nypost/status/1933109968510550430 15:02 US Senate is about to pass the GENIUS Act https://x.com/Cointelegraph/status/1932988965037978084 https://x.com/intangiblecoins/status/1932868994165354703 https://x.com/SenatorBennet/status/1932864987208249597 https://x.com/SenWarren/status/1932858887482507604 https://www.banking.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/20250611_warren_blumenthal_letter_to_meta_re_stablecoin.pdf https://x.com/RyanSAdams/status/1932877097623588922 27:35 Did Circle kickoff Stablecoin Summer? https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol=NYSE%3ACRCL https://x.com/MikeIppolito_/status/1932070226939810164 https://x.com/TaikiMaeda2/status/1929538665560031641 https://x.com/RyanSAdams/status/1932424510738673711 https://x.com/PlasmaFDN/status/1932072359080415702 https://www.barrons.com/articles/circle-ipo-crypto-retail-frenzy-06659b30? https://x.com/perkinscr97/status/1931032964349276313 39:54 Stripe acquired Privy https://x.com/privy_io/status/1932816495719166167 https://x.com/patrickc/status/1932817864450584939 42:41 Polymarket became official prediction market of X! https://x.com/xai/status/1932481207180406923 https://x.com/shayne_coplan/status/1931008087688614155 44:50 Morpho Labs will be soon fully owned by MORPHO token holders https://x.com/PaulFrambot/status/1930971485142761909 https://youtu.be/IJN_pgkKPjA?si=963i8GioANnNoVAR https://x.com/MorphoLabs/status/1933162070465208423 49:17 Paul Atkins defended DEFI as the foundation American values https://x.com/SECGov/status/1932137708068970924 https://x.com/SECGov/status/1932137708068970924 53:15 World Liberty Financial will acquire TRUMP for its treasury https://x.com/EricTrump/status/1931089248926490772 https://x.com/coinbase/status/1932836009034617183 54:38 Closing & Disclaimers 55:13 Moment of Zen https://x.com/BitcoinMagazine/status/1933172630099837134 ------ Not financial or tax advice.
