This week, Mippo, Myles, and Xavier sat down to discuss diverging institutional and crypto-native sentiment, exchange innovation, and how founder archetypes are shifting toward operators, and product-led builders. They also cover AI’s impact on execution and evolving crypto venture dynamics, fund sizing, and distribution-led value add.
