Ep 3 of Beyond Digital Gold is out! Will the real Bitcoin DeFi Please Stand Up?? Everyone disagrees with what Bitcoin DeFi is. Some say it already exists through wrapped Bitcoin on Ethereum. Others argue it will happen on Bitcoin Layer 2s, while disagreeing on what Bitcoin Layer 2s are. And some believe the only real Bitcoin DeFi must happen directly on Bitcoin itself. In our latest episode in our Beyond Digital Gold documentary series with StarkWare 🥷 , we map the entire ecosystem and break down the six competing models trying to unlock Bitcoin’s trillion-dollar liquidity.

🎙️1/ I enjoyed speaking with 0xkaiserkarel.union from Union where we discussed the current state of blockchain infrastructure and the pain developers go through to build cross-chain apps and how Union aims to solve those exact problems. Enjoy. Summary Karel Kubat, CEO of Union, lays out a bold vision for a decentralized coordination layer that can unlock true interoperability in crypto. He breaks down why bridging is still broken, why ZK is more than hype, and why Bitcoin needs to be more than digital gold. From security risks to UX gaps to regulatory pressure, this conversation covers the hard problems and how Union is solving them. Takeaways – Union is building a decentralized coordination layer to connect ecosystems without sacrificing sovereignty – Interoperability is not a feature, it’s the future, especially for assets like Bitcoin – ZK tech offers powerful efficiency and trust guarantees for cross-chain operations – Union’s mainnet beta is focused on bootstrapping use cases in the Bitcoin ecosystem – Bitcoin in DeFi isn’t optional, it’s the next unlock for serious liquidity – Real-world asset (RWA) integration is a priority for Union’s long-term roadmap – Bridge security remains a major attack surface and demands a new approach – UX in cross-chain bridging is still painful, Union wants to fix that – Go-to-market strategy targets underserved, long-tail assets and app developers – Regulatory shifts will shape product and protocol design going forward Chapters (00:00) Introduction to Union and Its Vision (02:43) The Importance of Interoperability in Blockchain (05:30) Union’s Unique Approach to ZK Technology (08:15) Building Bridges: Union’s Role in the Bitcoin Ecosystem (10:58) Unlocking Bitcoin’s Potential in DeFi (13:40) Real-World Asset Integration and Future Plans (16:33) Security and Trust in Blockchain Bridges (19:24) User Experience and the Future of Bridging (22:07) Union’s Go-to-Market Strategy and Community Engagement (24:42) The Role of Regulation in Union’s Future (27:27) Conclusion and Future Outlook (33:18) The role of Super Apps like Infinex that Abstracts Bridging and other painful processes

Former BlackRock fund manager Ed Dowd on the Bitcoin drop: "Bitcoin has always been a global liquidity canary in the coal mine" "what [this] says to me is that Bitcoin is being sold to fund and chase... momentum stocks, particularly NASDAQ and semiconductors" "[this] means the liquidity situation isn't as good as everyone thinks, because if this was truly a liquidity driven market rise, Bitcoin would be participating right now" This clip of Dowd (Edward Dowd), a former BlackRock fund manager and co-founder of Phinance Technologies, is taken from an interview with Daniela Cambone-Taub (Daniela Cambone-Taub) posted to the ITM TRADING, INC. YouTube channel on June 5, 2026. ---------------Partial transcription of clip---------------- "So Bitcoin peaked in October of last year and in this most recent move, in three weeks it's gone from 81,000 to 67,000. That's a 17% decline in three weeks. And technically it looks like it wants to go find a new low. "At the moment it may rally from here, but, the NASDAQ and Bitcoin have a strong correlation, historically 95%. "Bitcoin is a risk-on trade. So recently that's decoupled a little bit, which implies one of two things. Bitcoin needs to rally back up to make the correlation hold or the NASDAQ has to move down a lot for the correlation to hold. "So given Bitcoin's decline, it makes me concerned that global— and Bitcoin has always been a global liquidity canary in the coal mine. So what it says to me is that Bitcoin is being sold to fund and chase, you know, momentum stocks, particularly NASDAQ and semiconductors, which means the liquidity situation isn't as good as everyone thinks. "Because if this was truly a liquidity driven market rise, Bitcoin would be participating right now. "[And Michael] Saylor's stock has been a disaster for the last year and a half. He's selling some Bitcoin to pay some dividends. There is a thesis that he gets a margin call. I don't know whether that's true or not, but at these levels, it's margin call. "People have said in $74,000 bitcoins, margin call territory, we're now at $67,000. We'll see if that continues to unwind the Bitcoin space. But it just doesn't bode well for global liquidity that Bitcoin is struggling, in my humble opinion."

BITCOIN RAILS EPISODE #16: How Alkanes Are Changing the 'Programmable Bitcoin' Meta—and paving the path for true interoperability with Oyl Dynamics Airhead - Building Alkanes founders Tagga & RWP IV The founders of Oyl have been obsessively focused on making the Bitcoin trading experience as seamless and flexible as on other chains. This effort has led to a series of experiments, including the creation of Alkanes—one of the first programmable metaprotocol implementations on Bitcoin—and perhaps the only implementation pushing towards interoperability as a goal. In this episode, the Oyl boys and I sat down to discuss: - The real and perceived technical limitations of Bitcoin (and where Bitcoin surprisingly outperforms). - The "Programmable Metaprotocol" Boom and how Proto-Runes & Alkanes change the narrative - Why "composability" and interoperability are the real end game for Bitcoin metaprotocols - Oyl’s collab with Arthur Hayes on Airheads and why Ordinals may outperform tokens for fundraising This episode is powered by Best In Slot—the leading API for Ordinals and BRC20 data aggregation and indexing.

🎙️Own Bitcoin Before This $5 Trillion Liquidity Event Ep. 81 with Mark Moss My guest today is Mark Moss, a serial entrepreneur, investor, and educator in Bitcoin and macroeconomics. He’s the founder of Market Disruptors and a partner at the Bitcoin Opportunity Fund (Bitcoin Opportunity Fund). In this episode, Mark explains why fiat currencies collapse through inflation over decades, not overnight, and how the U.S. is using tariffs and debt expansion to stay afloat. We dive into why the 60/40 portfolio is obsolete, how Bitcoin acts as a portfolio “cheat code,” and why investing in Bitcoin infrastructure is key to building the future. We also discuss personal branding as a tool for sovereignty in the digital age, and why owning your voice matters as much as owning your wealth. Above all, this is a conversation about hope, brought to life by Mark’s trademark optimism and his belief that we are stepping into a new era of innovation and prosperity. ► If you got value, please like, comment, share, follow and support my work. Thank you! >>
