While the media focuses on daily political drama, major shifts are happening across crypto infrastructure, geopolitics, and the global financial system. In this episode of On The Chain, Jeff and Chip break down some of the most interesting developments shaping the world right now. We dive into updates across the Ripple ecosystem, Flare Network discussions, and the growing conversation around digital asset infrastructure, while also examining how global political and economic events could influence the future of markets and technology.
