## Resource

Bitcoin ETFs finally snapped their 10-day outflow streak, bringing in more than  $221 million  in new inflows, but Matt explains why one positive day isn't enough to erase June's record  $4.5 billion  in institutional selling. He also dives into the growing stablecoin debate, arguing that while Congress continues pushing back against a Federal Reserve CBDC, privately issued stablecoins backed by U.S. Treasuries may ultimately become an even more powerful form of digital money. https://www.youtube.com/watch?is=ncQr95cy21vYsWT4&v=SHroBbNtcbk&feature=youtu.be The episode also covers Securitize's public debut and tokenized shares on Solana and Avalanche, Metaplanet's continued Bitcoin accumulation, the IMF's latest warning on tokenization, Russia's rollout of the digital ruble, and Spotify's dispute with Kalshi and Polymarket after alleged manipulation of music-related prediction markets. Matt closes with his thoughts on why the biggest story in crypto may no longer be Bitcoin itself, but the race to build the financial infrastructure that will power the next generation of digital assets.
