The Fed Met. Ethereum Moved. Here's What Actually Happened Underneath

Bitcoin’s holding steady, Ethereum is pressing forward — but the bigger story is how financial advisors have been locked out of crypto for years, just as the rails of DeFi have proven themselves. In this episode, I dig into why that lockdown is cracking, why scams were mostly born in TradFi, and how crypto has survived and evolved. Then we look ahead to September 3rd, when Ondo Finance brings U.S. stocks directly onto Ethereum — a milestone I’m calling “Ethereum’s Fed Meeting.” Finally, I close with a full breakdown of Prompt, the AI agent from Wayfinder. We’ll compare it to Bankrbot, Coinbase’s execution bot of choice, and unpack why Coinbase Ventures is hedging its bets by backing both.
