In this explosive episode of The Runway podcast, host Matty Ice brings together Wall Street analyst Craig Shapiro, serial entrepreneur Bitcoin Ben, and guest Jeff and producer Paul to discuss the shifting economic landscape. From the $24 billion missing California homeless funds to Trump's tariff strategy with China, the panel doesn't hold back.

Discover why stablecoins could become the #1 source of Treasury demand in the next five years, VanEck's groundbreaking proposal for Bitcoin-backed government bonds, and how the cryptocurrency revolution is disrupting traditional financial systems. The panel delivers controversial takes on Federal Reserve policies, IP law reform, and why Bitcoin may eventually replace the dollar as the global reserve currency.

Featuring a bold prediction from Bitcoin Ben: "Federal Reserve in the next five years, stable coins will become the number one demand for treasuries. Absolutely."
