Live From DAS: Is PumpFun’s Peak Behind Us? | Round Table

In this episode, we discuss the evolving landscape of institutional crypto adoption. We explore differences in investment focus between traditional institutions and crypto natives, the sustainability of memecoin activity, and the competitive positioning of DeFi protocols like Aave. The conversation also touches on emerging blockchain ecosystems and the broader implications of regulatory shifts on market structure.
