Cap opens by arguing that the NFT bottom may already be in. He points to BAYC’s new member directory and Miami clubhouse push as signs that NFTs are moving away from farming and back toward utility, membership and collector conviction. He folds in a quick market check, but the stronger thread stays on why certain NFT brands now look more like real clubs and products than pure speculation. The BAYC clubhouse debate drives most of the first half and gives the episode its clearest point of view. The back half turns to a longer AI segment with Bunchu. They unpack OpenAI’s reported TBPN acquisition, the Claude versus OpenAI pendulum and why memory, context and workflow fit are starting to matter more than raw hype.
