EP 218 - Hayden Hughes - co-Founder and CEO at Alpha Impact - All It Takes Is One Crazy Market Cycle

Jul 23, 2022

With all of the recent activity in the cryptocurrency markets, I wanted to have a conversation with one of its most rational and informed participants.  I naturally invited a previous guest of the Asia Tech Podcast, Hayden Hughes, a co-Founder and the CEO of Alpha Impact.

Hayden has been posting, blogging, and not-sure-what-to-call-it over the past few weeks and I wanted to cover some of the topics he was addressing:

  • Algorithmic stablecoins
  • The logistics around the crypto lending markets
  • Terra and Luna's watershed event
  • The implications of Celsius, Zipmex, and others halting withdrawals.
  • What regaining trust looks like for firms in the crypto space
  • The inevitability of the future of finance is digital
  • What regulation could look like going forward

Other titles we considered for this episode:

  1. The Market Has Run Out of Things to Be Scared Of
  2. Crypto Is Pretty Forgiving
  3. We Were in Several Months of Down Only
  4. It Has Been a Crazy Couple of Months!
  5. This Isn’t the First Time Crazy Finance Bros Have Taken Such Risks
