In today's episode we discuss a major DeFi trading error involving a $50M Aave swap with extreme slippage, debate responsibility between users and front-end design, analyze Pump.fun’s potential multichain expansion and launchpad economics, and examine ACX’s plan to convert its token structure into equity to enable partnerships and possible acquisition.
