Episode notes

We’re back — and while we took an unexpected two-week break from recording, the crypto world didn’t stop moving. We catch up on everything that happened while we were away and unpack the trends shaping the market right now.

Bitcoin quietly crossed new all-time highs, but something felt off. Unlike past cycles, this rally wasn’t fueled by retail euphoria — it was eerily quiet. We dive into why retail investors seem disengaged, how institutional and protocol-level actors are shaping the market instead, and what that could mean for altcoins and future innovation.

We also explore the rise of non-arbitrary assets in the DMT ecosystem and what it means to build culture-driven, protocol-native value on Bitcoin. From meme aesthetics to metadata-rich NFTs, we talk about the evolution of digital artifacts that go beyond hype and aim to last.

One of the biggest shifts happening right now is the emergence of the InfoFi meta. Platforms like Kaito, Cookie, and now LOUDIO are quantifying social influence on Crypto Twitter and turning it into a new kind of token economy — one where your content, consistency, and community impact can earn you real rewards. We break down how it works, what the incentives look like, and where this is all headed.

Finally, we recap a recent conversation with an AI developer and explore how DMT’s pattern-driven design could power future generations of AI agents, NFTs, and on-chain identities. As always, we’re connecting the dots between culture, tech, and crypto’s evolving narrative.

If you’re building, watching, or just trying to make sense of it all — this one’s for you.
