2 OCT 2026 · A trading-signals company says it raised $1 million for a fund that will spend half its realized profits buying its own token, TTP, off the market and burning it. The fund has not started trading yet, and the performance figures so far come from a backtest, not a live track record. The TTP token launched on Solana with no presale and no team or investor allocation, a setup Nick says can be checked on-chain.
Nick Nechanicky, founder and CEO of TrendTrader Pro, explains how his buy and sell signals work across more than 1,000 markets, what he means by market maker cycles and stop loss traps, and what he took from building Tradiso and DexToro. He also covers the fair launch on Solana and how he tried to avoid snipers, how Fund A is set up, how the buyback and burn is meant to work, and what to watch over the next 90 days. Sponsored interview. Crypto Coin Show kept editorial control.

30 SEP 2026 · Decentralized social keeps failing for the same reason: Farcaster, Lens and every Twitter clone built an app-specific data model, so nothing composes and no network effect forms. KNOWLEDGE GRAPHS are the missing piece, and Geo Debates, launched today, is the first consumer product built on one. Two people who disagree on a specific claim argue it on video in timed turns, the clip drops into a swipeable short-form feed, the audience votes on who made the stronger case, and every claim stays on the record where it can be challenged later. Yaniv Tal, founder of Geo and co-founder of The Graph, breaks down why he stepped away from Edge & Node in 2022 to self-fund Geo through the bear market, why building a protocol and a consumer app at the same time is almost diametrically opposed, and why he refuses to let people bet on matters of fact. He explains what ground truth means for AI answers when nobody knows which sources are correct, how the dead internet theory ties back to centralization, and why Geo Debates runs on an Ethereum layer three that users never have to see.

29 SEP 2026 · Robinhood already lets millions of people trade stocks and crypto, so why build its own blockchain? Robinhood Chain is the answer: a chain Robinhood controls end to end, launched July 1, that has since crossed $1.6 billion in total value locked, with most major exchanges and wallets integrated by August. Owning the chain lets Robinhood set compliance rules for every jurisdiction it launches in, keep gas fees low, and bring tokenized stocks onchain with 24/7 trading.
Johann Kerbrat, SVP and General Manager of Crypto at Robinhood, breaks down how Robinhood keeps fees high enough to stop spam but low enough for trading (around 30 cents at the very max today), why it covers gas fees for Robinhood Wallet users, and why meme coins bring the liquidity and retail users that pull market makers and institutions onto a new chain. He also explains how tokenized stocks are being adopted for 24/7 trading, how Robinhood is tackling liquidity for stock tokens, when it partners versus builds in-house, and where the chain goes next as Robinhood expands internationally.

28 SEP 2026 · EMQQ Global's Kevin T. Carter joins Ashton Addison to make the case that the valuation gap between US and Chinese AI companies is closing faster than most investors realize. Kevin walks through TGRZ, the China AI Tigers LLM ETF built around DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, MiniMax and http://Z.ai, and AICH, the new full-stack China AI ETF that launched the same morning as this interview. Kevin explains why open models are catching up to closed ones faster than expected, why he thinks the US distillation warning against Chinese AI labs is overblown, what's actually driving profitability at these companies, and why American bias against investing in China may be creating the opportunity. He also breaks down the IPO paths for DeepSeek and Moonshot, and where investors can go to learn more about both funds.

24 SEP 2026 · Brave has grown into a privacy-first browser with 120 million-plus users and 50 million-plus daily actives, but only a sliver of that audience actually touches crypto today. SELF-CUSTODY PAYMENTS is how Brave is closing that gap, and Roadmap 4.0 is the plan to turn the world's biggest privacy browser into a Venmo-like, self-custody wallet anyone can use.
Luke Mulks, VP of Business Operations at Brave and host of the Brave Technologist podcast, joins Ashton Addison on Blockchain Interviews to break down Brave Pay, the GENIUS Act-compliant Brave Rewards Card, and x402 support for AI-agent stablecoin payments. Luke explains how the new wallet waitlist pulled in 44,000-plus signups in under two weeks and is closing in on 50,000, what that surge revealed about demand, and what a unified self-custody payments experience spanning everyday purchases, agent-to-agent transactions, and a physical card actually looks like a year from now.

18 SEP 2026 · AI is racing toward a moment where verifying data isn't the hard problem anymore — proving an autonomous agent or robot actually did what it claims becomes the harder one. PROOF OF ACTION is the frontier XYO is pushing toward next, moving past its original data-provenance thesis into a bigger question: when an AI makes a decision or a robot acts in the physical world, how do you actually prove it happened the way it says it did? Arie Trouw, Co-Founder, CEO, and CTO of XYO, joins Ashton Addison on Blockchain Interviews for his second appearance on the show. Arie breaks down what happens when a witness network's majority is wrong versus what's actually true, what a real audit trail needs to contain if an autonomous robot causes an accident, why reducing sensor data at the edge creates its own trust problem, and whether AI agents need a credit history or reputation once they hold wallets and hire other agents. He also names what has no business being on a blockchain today, and the one belief about where the industry is headed that most smart people in the space would disagree with.

18 AUG 2026 · AI agents are already making financial decisions, coordinating logistics, and acting autonomously on behalf of users — but there is no reliable record of what they did, why they did it, or whether the data they acted on was real. DATA PROVENANCE is the missing accountability layer, and XYO has been building it since before the industry knew it needed it. Markus Levin, Co-Founder of XYO, joins Ashton Addison on Blockchain Interviews for his second appearance on the show. Markus breaks down what 90 days of real adoption looks like since Data Lakes launched at http://xyo.network/data-lakes, how the XYO AI SDK lets developers add cryptographic proof to agent decisions in days not months, and why the "proof of work for robots" vision — where machines prove they did what they said they did before they get paid — is closer to shipping than most of the industry realizes. From why XYO Layer One is the first blockchain built specifically for data and not financial transactions, to how machine-to-machine payments only work when the data underneath them is verifiable, to what real AI agent adoption looks like in logistics, DePIN, and autonomous systems — this is the accountability infrastructure conversation the AI industry can no longer avoid.

12 AUG 2026 · Most crypto companies structure themselves in the wrong jurisdiction — or no jurisdiction at all — and find out what that means when it's too late to fix it. Dave Rodman, Founder and Managing Partner of The Rodman Law Group, breaks down the three offshore structures he recommends to crypto founders: the British Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands, and Panama. He explains how each one works, what the tradeoffs are, how the regulatory environment has shifted under the new administration, and what the Clarity Act actually does and doesn't fix. Rodman also covers AI agent liability, token launch landmines, IP risk in Web3, and what moving fast while staying compliant looks like in practice. The Rodman Law Group handles incorporation and full setup in all three jurisdictions.

2 AUG 2026 · Most RWA projects tokenize the asset and forget the token. ZIGChain is building the full stack: regulated onchain infrastructure for institutional-grade real-world assets, with $ZIG's value tied directly to platform revenue through a discretionary buyback program — not a separate speculative layer bolted on top. REVENUE-BACKED TOKENOMICS built on a purpose-built Layer 1 is what separates ZIGChain from the noise in an increasingly crowded RWA market. Abdul Rafay Gadit, Co-Founder of ZIGChain, joins Ashton Addison on Blockchain Interviews. ZIGChain is the next evolution of Zignaly — a platform with 600,000 registered users and $10 billion in trading volume — rebuilt as a Cosmos SDK Layer 1 with EVM compatibility, purpose-built for regulated, institutional-grade investment onchain. Rafay breaks down the $5 billion RWA pipeline including partnerships with Apex Group ($3.4T AUM) and Ellington, the Beehive integration tokenizing UAE SME private credit loans, and the ADI Chain partnership unlocking receivables financing and PayFi infrastructure. He explains why the Shariah compliance certification opens a $5+ trillion Islamic finance market that most crypto projects have never touched, how ZIG 2.0's governance-gated buyback program is structurally different from the fixed-revenue buyback models that broke down in 2026, and what it actually takes to move capital across MiCA, FINMA, MAS, and US regulatory frameworks simultaneously.

29 JUL 2026 · Crypto prop trading is a broken model: most firms quietly change the rules the moment a trader starts winning. TRANSPARENT ONCHAIN CRYPTO PROP TRADING is what Propr is building — and two months in, they have $1M in revenue, 5,000+ active traders, and 300+ AI agents already trading with funded capital. Louis Régis, Founder of Propr, joins Ashton Addison on Blockchain Interviews. Louis is a former Credit Suisse quant who ran the crypto desk at Rothschild & Co and now codes Propr live on Twitch daily. He breaks down how every challenge, rule, and payout on Propr is settled onchain and publicly verifiable — no black boxes, no hidden consistency rules, no scaling tiers. Louis explains why Hyperliquid was the only infrastructure that could make crypto prop trading on Hyperliquid work at this level, how the 80% profit split was designed, why AI agents are already a serious trader category on the platform, and what it means that Propr is expanding to Polymarket — becoming the first platform to bring funded capital to crypto prop trading on prediction markets.
