Cloud compute is expensive, centralized, and full of hidden trust assumptions — and most builders do not have a real alternative. Alessandro De Carli, Founder of Acurast, breaks down how Acurast turns everyday smartphones into a decentralized compute network, and why trusted execution environments (TEEs) let real workloads run with confidentiality and verifiability. Understand what “confidential compute” actually means, how decentralized compute can compete with Big Tech cloud, and what it takes to scale a network toward billions of devices.🔗 https://acurast.com/🐦 https://x.com/AcurastLinks (extras):- iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/acurast-processor/id6517361921- Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.acurast.attested.executor.sbs.canary- Hub: https://hub.acurast.com/rebellion- LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/acurast/- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@acurast🔔JOIN OUR FREE NEWSLETTER FOR 100X GAINS🔔: https://cryptocoinshow.substack.com/subscribe
Chris O’Brien, Partner and Head of the Crypto Practice at Venable LLP, joins Ashton Addison (Crypto Coin Show) for a practical, high-level conversation on what’s changing in US crypto regulation and what that means for builders in 2026. We cover how Web3 companies can engage with regulators without freezing innovation, the most common misconceptions founders have about “being compliant,” and the habits teams can build to reduce legal and enforcement risk as they scale. We also dig into what’s happening in DC right now on market structure and stablecoin legislation, including the Clarity Act and other proposals, plus the real-world scenarios if major legislation does not pass. Finally, Chris shares a grounded take on AI in legal work and why “ask ChatGPT first” can create serious pitfalls around confidentiality, missing context, and false confidence.

We sit down with Muriel Médard, Co-Founder & CEO of Optimum, to break down one of blockchain’s most overlooked scaling bottlenecks: data propagation. While most discussions focus on execution, consensus, or data availability, Muriel explains why the propagation layer is actually the ceiling for everything above it — and what happens when it starts to struggle under real-world load. From redundant transmission and wasted bandwidth to uneven geographic performance, we explore why traditional gossip-style P2P networking may be limiting Web3’s growth.Optimum is introducing Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) and a universal bandwidth fabric designed to materially improve propagation speed and efficiency across chains. We dive into what’s live today, how validators can integrate, key performance metrics to track, and what Flexnodes enable in a permissionless mesh network. If propagation becomes reliably fast and predictable, what new classes of low-latency applications could finally become possible? Watch to understand the next scaling frontier in blockchain infrastructure.Twitter (X): https://x.com/get_optimum🔔JOIN OUR FREE NEWSLETTER FOR 100X GAINS🔔: https://cryptocoinshow.substack.com/subscribe
We sit down with Toby Gilbert, Co-Founder & CEO of PACT SWAP, to explore the future of decentralized finance without bridges or wrapped tokens. As the industry matures, structural flaws in traditional cross-chain infrastructure are becoming impossible to ignore—especially for institutions preparing for the next wave of adoption in 2026. Toby breaks down how PACT SWAP is building the world’s first truly unified, bridgeless liquidity layer, eliminating the risks of intermediary-based swaps while unlocking native BTC liquidity at scale.From reactive smart contracts to collateralized accountability, this conversation dives deep into how secure, permissionless swaps across BTC, ETH, and Solana could reshape global finance over the next decade. If liquidity siloes disappear and DeFi becomes invisible to the end user, what does that mean for traders, institutions, and everyday users in hubs like Austin and Dubai?

In this episode of Blockchain Interviews, Ashton Addison sits down with Markus Levin, Co-Founder of XYO Network and XYO Layer One, to explore why verifiable data is becoming critical infrastructure for AI, robotics, and autonomous systems. As AI moves out of controlled digital environments and into the physical world, data integrity becomes a safety issue, not just a technical one. Markus breaks down why unverified data and hallucinated inputs create systemic risks for robotics, how cryptographic verification changes machine behavior, and why trustless data is the missing layer for reliable autonomy.The conversation goes beyond crypto and tokens into the future of machine economies, autonomous coordination, AI payments, and blockchain as a verification and coordination layer. From “proof of work for robots” to data-native blockchains and trustless infrastructure, this episode reframes Web3 as foundational systems architecture for AI and robotics, not speculation.🔔JOIN OUR FREE NEWSLETTER FOR 100X GAINS🔔: https://cryptocoinshow.substack.com/subscribe
In this episode of Blockchain Interviews, host Ashton Addison sits down with Michael Terpin, early Bitcoin investor and author of Bitcoin Supercycle, to break down where Bitcoin stands in the four-year halving cycle and why he believes 2026 could be a defining bear-market year. Terpin explains his “Four Seasons” framework for Bitcoin, why bull markets historically peak in Q4 after a halving, and how the current cycle compares to past drawdowns in 2014, 2018, and 2022.The conversation explores the difference between a true “supercycle” and the idea that crashes are gone for good, how ETFs and institutional capital amplify both upside and downside, and why macro forces like Fed policy and U.S. politics still matter. Terpin also shares his views on profit-taking, re-entry during Bitcoin Winter, and what separates disciplined investors from those who capitulate at market lows. Whether you’re preparing for volatility in 2026 or thinking long-term toward Bitcoin’s role as digital gold, this episode offers a clear framework for navigating the next phase of the crypto cycle.Bitcoin Supercycle Book:https://www.amazon.com/Bitcoin-Supercycle-Crypto-Calendar-Make/dp/151078215Xhttps://bitcoinsupercycle.ai 🔔JOIN OUR FREE NEWSLETTER FOR 100X GAINS🔔: https://cryptocoinshow.substack.com/subscribe
We sit down with Felipe Argento, Co-Founder of Cartesi, to explore how rollups are evolving beyond the constraints of the EVM and what it takes to scale real-world applications on Ethereum. Felipe shares how Cartesi enables developers to build app-specific rollups using traditional programming languages and Linux tooling, while still inheriting Ethereum’s security and decentralization guarantees.The conversation dives into Cartesi’s architecture, including its next-generation fraud-proof system Dave, why strong Sybil resistance and fast dispute resolution matter for rollup liveness, and how Cartesi unlocks a much broader design space for developers across DeFi, AI, gaming, and beyond. We also discuss the state of Layer 2s, what developers actually need to build scalable applications, Cartesi’s roadmap through 2026, and how builders can start experimenting with appchain rollups today.Cartesi Website: https://cartesi.ioDeveloper Docs: https://docs.cartesi.ioJoin the Cartesi Discord: https://discord.gg/cartesiStart Building: https://cartesi.io/build🔔JOIN OUR FREE NEWSLETTER FOR 100X GAINS🔔: https://cryptocoinshow.substack.com/subscribe

In this episode of Blockchain Interviews, Ashton Addison (Crypto Coin Show) welcomes back Alexander Rogan, Co-Founder of Abatis, for a deep discussion on why modern cybersecurity often feels noisy, abstract, and disconnected from real-world outcomes. The conversation begins with a look at operating systems as a primary attack surface, using the forced migration from Windows 10 to Windows 11 as a concrete example of how security, control, and system ownership are increasingly shaped by platform policy rather than actual risk.Alexander explains how Abatis approaches security differently—focusing on system control, deterministic behavior, and longevity rather than constant upgrades or app-level promises. The interview also explores the limits of encryption, why “secure” messaging apps can still fail, what sovereign-grade communications really mean in practice, and why Web3 losses weren’t caused by cryptography itself but by endpoint and infrastructure failures. The discussion closes with Abatis’ Token Generation Event (ABTU), how it aligns incentives around real infrastructure, and what good security should actually look like in the real world.Learn more about Abatis and $ABTU: https://abatisabtu.com Follow Abatis: https://x.com/Abatis_ABTU 🔔JOIN OUR FREE NEWSLETTER FOR 100X GAINS🔔: https://cryptocoinshow.substack.com/subscribe
