Loki joins Coffee with Captain as a Friday co host to trace NFTs from the wild 2021 mint days to the more grounded collector market of 2025. Together they challenge the "NFTs are dying" narrative, comparing projects like Doodles and the way digital art now shows up at Art Basel Miami to longer term collectibles such as Pokémon cards and Jordan rookies. The crew walks through how leading collections now create real value through airdrops, defined community roles, access to deals and new toolin...
Markets opened red across majors, setting up a broader conversation about rotation and which teams are still building meaningfully in a difficult environment. That context framed the main guest segment where Austin from Neuko joined live from Solana Breakpoint to explain how Neuko’s infrastructure layer and G*Boy’s character-driven brand work together as a long-term onchain OS. He detailed the badge experiment, the in-person ARG activations, and why forcing real commitment creates a more auth...
Doopies mint day on Solana anchored the show as Cap and the crew asked who besides existing Doodles holders would actually show up to mint. They broke down how OGs and Dooplicators are treated, how the allowlist and supply might work, and the hinted role of the DOOD token, but kept returning to how unclear the overall plan still feels. A big chunk of the conversation questioned Doodles long term direction, praising BT’s art but asking how years of capital and collabs have not turned into a si...

Art Basel turned into a live case study for digital art’s coming-of-age as Cap recapped Beeple’s Regular Animals installation, the Zero One Ten hall, and Jack Butcher’s physical–digital receipts that stopped crowds in their tracks. The crew zoomed out on what on-chain art actually solves, from provenance and certificates of authenticity to how high-net-worth collectors might eventually move serious capital on more transparent rails. They contrasted artist-led experimentation at Basel with NFT...
Cap’s live-from-Miami breakdown centered on Art Basel’s turning point for digital art, with Beeple’s surreal installations, XCopy’s Bubbles drop, and Jack Butcher’s interactive mint illustrating how onchain work finally felt integrated into the broader art world. The crew dug into why this year’s Basel attracted real attention beyond crypto circles and how experiential pieces functioned as “POAP 2.0” with far better onboarding. They explored the reality of event design in Miami, using traffic...
Bitcoin’s “we are so back” moment framed the show as Cap revisited his bottom call and why this still looks like a mid-cycle structure.

The crew also covered key brand moments including Rekt’s collaboration with Superior Beverage Group, M...

He explains that Steve will oversee communications, help shape rewards and loyalty products, and guide the brand’s social presence. The...
The crew opened with a detailed breakdown of Monad’s TGE, its idle float problem and how MegaETH’s prepared ecosystem offers a sharper path to real yield. Market drawdowns, high-FDV unlock pressure and the fatigue around points farming shaped the broader conversation about user incentives. They dug into liquidity, smarter LP models and why better infrastructure still needs time to mature. The back half of the show shifted to Joey, Insight and Cameron as they unveiled the Chimpers × ApeChain ×...
Monad dominated the conversation as the crew broke down TGE float dynamics, early pricing, and how real yield strategies compare to simple spot positioning.

Chimpers’ new ApeChain × Otherside trading cards sparked a broader discussion on retail expansion and user experience. MegaEth’s revenue surge led to comparisons across L1s and stablecoin rails like USDM and Ethena. The show wra...

Joey, Strategy and Business Operations at Chimpers, joined to break down how the team thinks about distribution, brand equity and why their retail strategy and dojo treasury design go far beyond typical Web3 merch drops. Cap connected that thinking back into Otherside, pointing listeners...

Together they also walk through how stablecoins are audited, how reserves are validated and ...
Cap spends a later part of the episode unpacking the Pudgy takeover on Capitol Hill and why the lawmakers involved signal something more coordinated than a meme.

Cap also gets into AI and Tesla robotics and how those tech narratives overlap with crypto and market sentiment. A smaller section of the conversation looks at social ...

The back half dives into stablecoin economics, proof of reserves and ...
