Episode notes

The Bankless token hub lets you learn from your fellow citizens to rate these tokens yourselves. The Ambier smart contract wallet is coming soon for both iOS and Android. If you want to be a beta tester, Ambier is airdropping their wallet token for simply just using the wallet. So thank you, Ambier, for pushing the frontier of smart contract wallets on Ethereum.

Paul Grewal, Coinbase's Chief Legal Officer joins Ryan and David to discuss why Coinbase is Suing the SEC. Why did they choose to respond to the SEC's Wells Notice to Coinbase in the way they did? Is Gary playing 4D chess or is he just embarrassing and pushing U.S. crypto innovation outside of the U.S.?

Tune in to hear Paul's thoughts and much more.
