A $1.6 billion private equity fraud unraveled—here's how it happened and what it means for the financial system.
In this episode, we delve into the GPB Capital scandal, where executives misled investors with fabricated performance metrics and deceptive payouts, culminating in significant prison sentences. We explore the mechanics of the fraud, the regulatory oversights, and the broader implications for private equity and investor trust.
Then, we shift focus to the future: a Future Price Prediction (FPP) on Virtuals Protocol, a burgeoning Web3 project that's flying under the radar. Virtuals Protocol empowers users to create and monetize AI agents within a decentralized framework, blending artificial intelligence with blockchain technology. If you missed early opportunities like Solana, this might be the signal you're looking for.
Topics Covered:
Breakdown of the GPB Capital fraud case
SEC and DOJ enforcement trends
Introduction to Virtuals Protocol and its unique value proposition
Future Price Prediction (FPP) on Virtuals Protocol
Emerging crypto and Web3 signals not covered elsewhere

Want to go deeper into the ideas behind this show?
The best place to begin is the Start Here page — where I explain how capital is quietly reshaping the financial system, and how everyday investors can align early with the infrastructure being built beneath the headlines.

If you want to go further, the next step is the Alignment Intelligence Bundle — the system I use to interpret how structural financial shifts happen before they become obvious.
🔶 Get it here:

Inside you’ll find:
• Aligned or Left Behind — the framework for understanding alignment before clarity
• The Alignment Checklist — a practical guide for identifying positioning signals
• And 30 days of Signals access, where I track the infrastructure and assets institutions are quietly building
Because in structural shifts, recognition always arrives later than alignment.
The Chip Mahoney Show delivers financial intelligence for the Digital Dollar era — helping investors, advisors, and builders stay early, not reactive.
