    Dragonfly's Haseeb Qureshi: The Biggest Digital Assets Bull Market Has Started (Here's How I’m Positioned)

    26/09/2026 | 29 mins.
    Haseeb Qureshi joins to catch us up on his portfolio, why he's extremely bullish on perps, tokenization, and prediction markets.
    He explains how more than half of Hyperliquid's volume is already real-world assets, which means the competitor isn't Coinbase, it's ICE and the Nasdaq, and the addressable market is enormous by comparison. He ranks the big categories Dragonfly is allocating $4 billion across, calls vaults the weakest of them on defensibility, and explains why perps beat tokenization over the next year even if that reverses in five. He also breaks down why every state attorney general is suing prediction markets, and why this ends as a Supreme Court vote.
    Haseeb Qureshi is a Managing Partner at Dragonfly, a digital assets venture capital firm.
    The Rollup is where the leaders of digital assets and finance converge. Live from the financial capital of the world.

    Se Yong Park: Why The Trillion Dollar Opportunity Is Social (Ground Floor)

    24/09/2026 | 18 mins.
    Se Yong Park says FOMO has the first objective feedback loop in social media history: you made money, or you didn't. He frames it as social media three, the speculation graph following Facebook's social graph and Instagram's interest graph, and explains why FOMO deliberately owns none of the layers it trades on. Plus the retention curve finally smiling at month seven, $17 million paid out to creators and referrers in three weeks, and why tokenized equities are next.
    Se Yong Park is the Co-Founder of FOMO.

    Carlos Domingo: Why Tokenization Goes From Billions To Trillions (Full Thesis)

    22/09/2026 | 17 mins.
    Carlos Domingo says what Robinhood issued are debt securities, and the industry is conflating three very different products under one word. He walks through all three models, explains why only one gives you actual ownership, and argues the digital assets degen audience buying them is a far smaller market than people assume. He also flags a closing window: the SEC's transfer agent proposal is open for comment until November, and unlike the Gensler era, this one is actually reading them. Plus what going public really changed, with $50 million in the bank and acquisitions on the radar.

    Carlos Domingo is the Founder and CEO of Securitize.

    Ethena CEO: The Market Just Got 60x Bigger (Everything Changes)

    20/09/2026 | 18 mins.
    RWA perps just expanded Ethena's addressable market from $2.5 trillion of crypto to $150 trillion of everything else. Guy Young explains why he thinks that's a bigger unlock than anything USDe has done so far, and why Ethena Pay is the first thing he's been this excited about since launch. He's candid about the past three years too as he covers a comical run of four-sigma events, a cap table he now calls a mistake, and the decision to buy out every investor who'd been selling. On buybacks, he breaks ranks with the market: he thinks they're the wrong call at this size, and he's doing them anyway.

    Guy Young is the Founder and CEO of Ethena Labs, the team behind USDe.

    Kevin O'Leary: Crypto Becomes The 12th Sector Of The S&P (Full Thesis)

    19/09/2026 | 12 mins.
    Kevin O’Leary joins us in NYC for an interview about his allocation and views on the digital asset market.Digital assets becoming the twelfth sector of the S&P was his core framing. He thinks it gets there by servicing the other eleven. He also walks back a position he held eighteen months ago: that everything would standardize on Ethereum. Now he expects sectors to pick their own chains, and says whichever one lands the first major exchange takes the whole prize while the rest lose. He closes on why he's moved to 23% alternatives, his new long in uranium, and why Bitcoin's path to a million runs through the quantum question.Kevin O'Leary is the Chairman of O'Leary Ventures and Beanstox, and an investor on Shark Tank.The Rollup is where the leaders of digital assets and finance converge. Live from the financial capital of the world.
