Bitcoin didn’t fall 25% because of politics — it fell because U.S. dollar liquidity snapped. And at the same time BRICS nations are fully ditching the dollar for settlement, Citadel is quietly helping Ripple build a modern banking stack.

In this episode, Chip breaks down the real story behind the Bitcoin dip, why de-dollarization is accelerating at the exact moment TradFi is laying fresh settlement rails, and why assets like XRP are starting to function less like trades and more like transfers in a new global system.

You’ll also hear how ISO-20022, bank-charter applications, Digital Asset Treasuries, and the “cement isn’t dry” theory all converge into one thing: the future economy is being rewired under our feet — and retail still thinks it’s about vibes.
