    This Is The Bitcoin Buying Zone | Charles Edwards

    Could AI become a bigger opportunity than Bitcoin and what happens if Bitcoin miners start choosing AI instead? In this episode of AllInCrypto, Rupert sits down with Charles Edwards, investor, founder of Capriole Investments and creator of Bitcoin’s Hash Ribbons model, for a wide-ranging discussion on Bitcoin, AI, quantum computing, macro markets and the future of crypto. Charles explains why he believes AI and quantum computing could be among the most important investment themes of the next five years, while also highlighting new risks emerging around Bitcoin. We discuss why Bitcoin miners are increasingly moving toward AI infrastructure, what happens if the cost of intelligence falls dramatically, and why the economics behind today’s enormous AI CapEx boom could eventually change. The conversation also dives deep into Bitcoin valuation including the electrical cost model Charles uses to identify deeper value as well as Strategy, Bitcoin treasury leverage, altcoins, tokenomics and the growing convergence between crypto and traditional finance. Charles also explains why he avoids altcoins when Bitcoin is trending lower, how he eliminates the vast majority of tokens using fundamental analysis, and why stablecoins, trading and tokenized real-world assets could eventually make crypto and TradFi almost indistinguishable.

    Crypto’s Role In The AI War | Gaurav CEO io.net

    What happens when the infrastructure powering artificial intelligence is controlled by only a handful of companies? In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, we sit down with Gaurav Sharma, CEO & CTO of io.net, to explore the rapidly growing battle over GPUs, AI compute and the infrastructure that could shape the next generation of the internet. Gaurav argues that in an AI-driven economy, talent alone may no longer be enough. Developers need access to two increasingly valuable resources: compute and data. Without them, even the best engineers can struggle to compete. We discuss why GPU demand continues to accelerate, how decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN) could unlock unused computing power around the world, and why Gaurav believes crypto may have found one of its most important real-world use cases. The conversation also goes much deeper. What happens if Amazon, Google, Microsoft and other major technology companies control an increasing share of the infrastructure behind AI? Could access to intelligence itself become centralized? And could decentralized infrastructure give developers, businesses and individuals another path? Gaurav also explains how everyday GPU owners can participate in distributed compute networks, why affordable GPUs could transform AI education, how platform dependency can threaten AI startups, and why he believes the current AI compute boom is far from a bubble.

    The $400T Opportunity Is Here | eToro CEO Yoni Assia

    In this episode of AllInCrypto, we sit down with Yoni Assia, Founder & CEO of eToro, for a deep conversation about AI agents, Bitcoin, DeFi, tokenization and the transformation of global financial markets. Yoni explains why he believes AI and crypto are a “pair made in heaven” — and shares his own experience asking an AI agent to open an Ethereum wallet, only to discover it could interact with prediction markets, perpetual markets, tokenized assets and tens of thousands of tokens. We also explore why he sees the movement of global assets on-chain as a potential $400 trillion opportunity, why traditional financial infrastructure may struggle in a 24/7 AI-driven economy, and how tokenized equities could eventually connect directly with DeFi. Yoni also shares his views on Bitcoin as digital gold, inflation and currency devaluation, the power of compounding, stablecoin adoption, AI-powered investing, market cycles and whether the current AI boom resembles the dot-com era. Could crypto become the native financial infrastructure for autonomous AI agents? And are we witnessing the beginning of one of the biggest changes in global finance?

    AI Agents Will Need Money Too | Jody Mettler, COO of BitGo

    AI agents may soon need their own wallets and BitGo is already working on the infrastructure that could make it possible. In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, we sit down with Jody Mettler, Chief Operating Officer of BitGo and President of BitGo Bank & Trust, to explore how digital assets are evolving from speculative investments into real financial infrastructure. After spending 22 years at Citi working across payments, operations and financial infrastructure, Jody now sits at the intersection of traditional finance and one of the fastest-moving areas of the digital economy. We discuss why institutions are moving beyond simply buying and holding crypto, how stablecoins could transform global payments, why tokenization may disrupt traditional securities markets, and what growing institutional participation actually looks like behind the scenes. We also explore one of the most fascinating developments ahead: the convergence of AI and digital assets. Jody reveals that BitGo is already working on an agentic wallet and explains why blockchain could become the financial connector that allows autonomous AI agents to open wallets, transact and participate in the economy. Could crypto ultimately become part of the financial infrastructure of an AI-driven world?

    This is Why The World Needs XRP | Interview with Vet from XRPL

    Could XRP become the neutral bridge connecting the world’s currencies? In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, we sit down with Vet, contributor to the XRP Ledger Foundation, XRP Ledger dUNL validator and co-founder of XRP Café. We explore the original vision behind XRP: enabling global liquidity and serving as a neutral bridge between currencies, markets and tokenized assets. Vet explains why the rise of stablecoins and real-world asset tokenization does not weaken XRP’s original use case. In his view, it gives XRP more assets to connect and more opportunities to improve on-chain liquidity. The conversation also examines whether a neutral digital asset could eventually compete for part of the global bridge and reserve role currently dominated by the US dollar. We also discuss the growing divide between institutional optimism and retail fatigue, XRP’s relationship with the XRP Ledger, the expansion of DeFi, on-chain lending, privacy, institutional adoption and the long-term vision of an Internet of Value.

    Blockchain Goes Where Banks Cannot | Matt Keller Algorand

    What if blockchain’s most important use case isn’t trading but helping humanitarian aid reach people traditional banking systems cannot? In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, Rupert Pickering sits down with Matt Keller, Lead: Impact at the Algorand Foundation, to explore how blockchain, stablecoins and digital wallets are transforming humanitarian payments. Matt explains how Algorand and HesabPay are helping organizations deliver financial support in Afghanistan and Syria, where access to traditional banking infrastructure remains limited. The conversation explores how direct digital payments can give recipients greater control, make the movement of aid easier to trace and provide institutions with greater confidence that resources reached their intended destination. We also discuss how developing economies could leapfrog traditional banking infrastructure—just as many previously skipped landlines and moved directly to mobile technology. Matt shares insights into stablecoin payments for agricultural workers in northeast Syria, the future of digital financial services, privacy for vulnerable recipients and the growing Humanitarian Payments Council bringing together organizations including Visa, Mastercard, Circle and United Nations agencies. This is crypto being used not for speculation, but to solve real human problems.

    By 2029, Finance Will Change Forever ! With Andrew McCormick from Chainlink

    In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast we sits down with Andrew McCormick, Head of Institutional and Market Development at Chainlink Labs. Before joining Chainlink Labs, Andrew led eToro’s US business and held senior legal and regulatory roles at Morgan Stanley. Today, he works with global financial institutions exploring blockchain infrastructure, tokenization, interoperability and programmable financial markets. Andrew explains why institutional conversations have shifted from “Should we use blockchain?” to “What can we build securely and at scale?” They explore how Chainlink could become the invisible infrastructure connecting blockchains, financial institutions, real-world data and tokenized assets. Andrew also discusses the reported $33 trillion in transactions supported by Chainlink Oracles, DTCC’s use of the Chainlink Runtime Environment, the role of CCIP in a multichain financial system and why he believes markets could look markedly different by 2029. The conversation also covers the LINK token, Chainlink Reserve, institutional access to DeFi and the convergence of AI agents, stablecoins, robots and blockchain technology. Could Chainlink become the operating system powering the future of global finance?

    The West Is Losing Crypto Adoption with Vincent Gramoli - Redbelly Network

    In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, Rupert Pickering sits down with Vincent Gramoli, Founder and CTO of Redbelly Network, to explore how blockchain could move beyond speculation and become trusted infrastructure for real-world finance. Vincent is a Professor at the University of Sydney and has spent years researching distributed systems, blockchain scalability and Byzantine fault tolerance. He explains how that academic research became Redbelly Network: a Layer 1 designed around deterministic consensus, no forks, quasi-instant finality and compliant real-world asset tokenization. The conversation covers why a transaction appearing on a blockchain may not always mean it is permanently settled, how tokenization could allow titanium to trade before it reaches another continent, and why emerging economies may adopt decentralized financial infrastructure differently from the West. Vincent also discusses Redbelly’s reported mainnet throughput, its earlier laboratory benchmark, the security trade-offs associated with moving transactions off-chain, Australia’s evolving digital asset regulation and Redbelly’s participation in Project Acacia with the Reserve Bank of Australia.

    Crypto Could Own The AI Future | George Zeng, CPO at NEAR

    Who will control the future of AI: Big Tech or the users themselves? In this episode, we sit down with George Zeng, Chief Product Officer at NEAR Protocol, to explore user-owned AI, private inference, autonomous agents and the growing intersection between artificial intelligence and crypto. George explains why today’s AI boom resembles the early internet, how NEAR intends to compete with centralized AI platforms, and why agents capable of handling money need secure blockchain infrastructure. We also discuss the real utility of the NEAR token, crypto’s failure to solve problems for everyday users, which jobs may survive AI and how people can stay relevant as technology accelerates.

    What Has Crypto Actually Built? with John Nahas from Ava labs

    Crypto has spent years launching tokens, chasing narratives and promising disruption. Now the industry is entering its “show me” phase. In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, we sit down with John Nahas, Chief Business Officer at Ava Labs, to discuss Avalanche, institutional adoption, tokenization and what crypto must do to become a sustainable industry. John explains why blockchains should help businesses either generate revenue or reduce costs—and why launching a token to fund operations does not automatically make a project a real business. We also explore Avalanche’s network of purpose-built Layer 1 blockchains, its approach to interoperability and real-world initiatives involving Toyota, FIFA, gaming, payments, vehicle titles and tokenized assets. John also shares his thoughts on crypto’s missing killer application, the convergence of DeFi and traditional finance, AI agents moving value autonomously and the future utility of the AVAX token. A direct conversation about moving beyond speculation and building products that deliver measurable value.

    This Crypto Turns GPUs Into Income | Greg Osuri

    Could AI pay for your GPU—and turn idle hardware into a new source of income? In this episode, we sit down with Greg Osuri, founder of Akash Network and CEO of Overclock Labs, to explore the rapidly growing demand for AI compute and why the current cloud infrastructure may not be able to keep up. Greg explains how Amazon, Google and Microsoft have become the kingmakers of the AI economy, controlling access to the GPUs and infrastructure that companies need to compete. We discuss the rise of “techno-feudalism,” why AI agents could create an unprecedented compute crisis, and how Akash Network is building an open marketplace where data centres, cloud providers and individuals can offer unused computing power. Greg also reveals why Akash currently has significantly more demand than available supply, how distributed computing could help solve the AI energy crisis, and how people may eventually earn money by renting out the GPUs inside their gaming computers. Could your GPU eventually pay for itself?

    Most Crypto Tokens Shouldn’t Exist | CIO of CoinFund

    Alex Felix, Co-Founder, Managing Partner and CIO of CoinFund, returns to the All In Crypto Podcast to discuss where crypto is really heading next. In this conversation, we explore why crypto is moving from speculation into real commercial adoption, why Alex believes a “great token reset” is coming, and why not every crypto project actually needs a token. We also discuss the future of on-chain finance, stablecoins, tokenized real-world assets, private blockchains, AI, DePIN, NEAR, DFINITY, Ondo, institutional adoption, and why 2028 could become a major inflection point for crypto rails. If crypto is no longer just a religion, but becoming a real business, what does that mean for investors, founders, tokens and the future of finance?

    Crypto’s 2008 Moment Is Coming! with Francis Hunt

    Francis Hunt, also known as The Market Sniper and The Crypto Sniper, returns to AllInCrypto for a deep macro and technical breakdown of where Bitcoin, crypto, the dollar, AI stocks, MicroStrategy and global markets could be heading next. In this episode, Francis explains why crypto investors can no longer ignore the dollar, CPI, interest rates, private credit, AI overvaluation and wider financial system stress. He breaks down why Bitcoin may see a short-term rally, but also why a stronger dollar and a potential macro shock could put major pressure back on risk assets. We also discuss Bitcoin’s technical setup, MicroStrategy, Coinbase, crypto-related ETFs, stablecoins, XRP, silver, emerging markets, the BRICS currency shift, and why Francis believes crypto has never truly experienced a 2007/2008-style liquidity crisis.

    Hedera has a Revenue Problem? with HBAR Bull

    In this episode we joined once again by Brandon, better known as The HBAR Bull, for a deep dive into Hedera, HBAR, crypto market conditions, AI, enterprise adoption, network revenue, staking, and the future of real-world blockchain utility. The conversation begins with the current state of the crypto market, why retail sentiment feels weak, and how capital may be flowing toward other exponential technologies such as AI. Brandon also explains why he sees crypto and AI as complementary technologies, especially when it comes to trust, data provenance, agentic payments, and agentic commerce. The discussion then moves into perpetual futures, synthetic exposure, Hyperliquid, and the potential risks of markets where users may think they are getting exposure to real productive assets, but where capital does not actually flow to the underlying companies or commodities. From there, Rupert and Brandon dive deep into Hedera’s recent developments, including the Hashgraph algorithm, aBFT security, fair ordering, decentralized recovery, the Cross Ledger Protocol, “bridgeless bridging,” Project Bonneville, GigaGas, and Hedera’s smart contract evolution. They also explore the importance of Hedera’s Governing Council, including Accenture, FedEx, McLaren, and other major enterprise players, before focusing on one of the biggest questions around HBAR today: network revenue. Brandon breaks down how HBAR is used to pay for Hedera network services, how revenue is distributed, why current revenue is still relatively small, and why the bull case depends on future high-volume use cases such as verifiable compute, AI data tracking, supply chain, IoT, satellite-enabled machine-to-machine transactions, and enterprise adoption at scale. They also discuss staking rewards, community nodes, Hedera’s runway, ETF and index exposure, the difference between real transactions and inflated metrics, and why Hedera may be positioned not just to capture a market, but to support parts of the future digital economy.

    Bill Barhydt On Bitcoin, AI, Longevity & The Future Of Wealth

    What happens when AI, Bitcoin, debt, tokenization, and longevity all collide at the same time? In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, Rupert Pickering is joined by Bill Barhydt, founder and CEO of Abra, one of the earliest voices in Bitcoin and crypto finance. Bill was buying Bitcoin when it was still below $1, worked at Netscape during the birth of the consumer internet, and has spent years building in crypto, digital assets, and financial technology. In this conversation, we discuss whether AI is overshadowing crypto, why the current AI boom may be unlike anything we have ever seen, how AGI could consume today’s LLMs as tools, and why crypto may become the foundation for a decentralized world. We also dive deep into the late-stage debt cycle, money printing, inflation as a hidden tax on the middle class, why the rich keep getting richer, and whether Bitcoin and crypto could help break the cycle. Bill also shares his views on stablecoins, tokenization, DeFi, Hyperliquid, Abra’s tokenized yield products, the future of always-on markets, longevity escape velocity, and why living to 130 could completely reset insurance, savings, wealth, taxes, and the entire financial system. Finally, Bill explains how he thinks about building a portfolio today, why Bitcoin is his personal “beta,” why liquidity matters, and why he has never met a billionaire who became a billionaire through diversification.

    Five Years Before Privacy Dies | Fahmi Syed

    In this episode of the All In Crypto Podcast, we are joined by Fahmi Syed, President of Midnight Foundation, to discuss one of the most important issues in blockchain today: privacy. Fahmi explains why public blockchains may have confused transparency with truth, and why permanent on-chain visibility can become a serious problem for individuals, institutions, hedge funds, banks, enterprises, and even governments. We explore why privacy is not just about hiding information, but about protecting identity, strategy, financial activity, personal data, medical records, business logic, and real-world adoption. Fahmi also breaks down how Midnight uses zero-knowledge technology, selective disclosure, private smart contracts, identity, and a new tokenomics model to create privacy-first blockchain infrastructure that can support institutions, developers, Web2 companies, other blockchains, and real-world applications. From hedge funds and public blockchain surveillance to Monument Bank, tokenized deposits, healthcare, supply chains, AI agents, Brave, and the future of data ownership, this conversation explains why Midnight believes privacy could be the missing layer for mass blockchain adoption.

    Jeff Dorman: MicroStrategy Painted Itself Into A Corner | Bitcoin, HYPE, Tokenization & AI

    In this episode of the AllInCrypto Podcast, Rupert Pickering is joined by Jeff Dorman, CIO at ARCA, for a deep conversation on the state of markets, Bitcoin, MicroStrategy, token value accrual, HYPE, real-world tokenization, AI infrastructure, and where the real growth in blockchain may be happening. Disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. Always do your own research and consult a qualified professional before making any financial decisions. Jeff explains why Middle East conflicts may not matter for markets as much as investors think, why equities are being driven by earnings rather than hype, and why crypto can no longer be treated as one single asset class. He breaks down one of his most important frameworks: tokens are just wrappers. What matters is what sits inside them. That leads into a discussion on why HYPE may be fundamentally different from Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Solana, why many crypto projects may be “good projects with bad tokens,” and why DeFi, RWA tokenization, stablecoins, payments, and AI could be the real growth areas inside blockchain. Jeff also gives a sharp analysis of MicroStrategy, its Bitcoin position, preferred obligations, MNAV pressure, and why the company may have created a difficult capital structure problem. A major conversation on markets, crypto, Bitcoin, tokenization, AI, and the future of digital assets. Nothing discussed in this episode is financial advice.
