The Rollup

Jeremy Schwartz says today is nothing like 2000. The expanded tech sector trades around a 22 forward P/E, Tesla is the only big stock priced like the dot-com era, and for public market investors there's no real bubble. If anything, he says, AI adoption hasn't even reached the national anthem.

On Convergence, our series with WisdomTree, WisdomTree's Global Chief Investment Officer explains why markets are climbing a wall of worry with reasonable valuations, why he doesn't see a dramatic Fed hiking cycle, and how people across his firm built around 60 apps in five months by vibe coding, which makes him want more people using these tools, not fewer. He breaks down WisdomTree's push into tokenization, from tokenized gold to a tokenized money market fund that can now trade 24/7, and why tokenized ETFs are coming as the SEC pushes progress forward. He also previews the new collaboration with Return Stacked ETFs and explains why a few percent in Bitcoin makes sense as a diversifier in multi-asset portfolios.

Jeremy Schwartz is Global Chief Investment Officer at WisdomTree and co-author of Stocks for the Long Run with Professor Jeremy Siegel.

James Seyffart says we are so early in the tokenization build-out, like the second inning. Tokenized stocks are ramping aggressively, following the same path stablecoins took a few years ago, and the total addressable market is absolutely massive.

Live from Link:NYC in Hudson Yards, Bloomberg Intelligence's senior research analyst explains why the DTCC's tokenization service and the biggest banks and broker-dealers testing onchain rails are only just getting started, and why he expects most stuff to be tokenized in 10 to 15 years, often without investors even noticing. He breaks down why tokenized ETFs and tokenized stocks are two bridges between TradFi and DeFi that will eventually merge, how skeptics at Bloomberg went from dismissing blockchain to quoting Hyperliquid and Polymarket prices, and why Zcash has become one of the most talked-about assets among institutional clients. He also lays out why he thinks Bitcoin reaches $10 trillion by the end of the decade.

Sergey Nazarov says the whole industry only keeps succeeding if net new money keeps coming onchain, and now the job is to 10x that money. The way to do it, he says, is to use tokenization to build financial products that are better than their traditional versions.

Live from Link:NYC in Hudson Yards, the Chainlink co-founder explains why Chainlink has grown from an oracle into a collection of tools and full solutions, from a custody product already adopted by Anchorage to securities and cash lending across DeFi and TradFi, and why that makes it as hard to describe as Amazon Web Services. He breaks down why 24/7 markets need 24/7 data, what connecting the DTCC's collateral app chain to the Swift ledger would unlock, and why the really huge volume will come from cross-border flows, with capital in places like Dubai and Singapore finally able to reach US assets. He also previews, for the first time, a new Chainlink solution built for AI agents to use DeFi, securities lending and real-world assets.

Jim Ferraioli believes Wall Street's move on-chain has finally arrived, and that this cycle is unlike any before it.

In this episode, Rob sits down with Jim, Head of Crypto Research at Charles Schwab, to talk about the institutional shift in digital assets. They cover why this cycle is different, how Schwab approaches research as a firm that doesn't issue tokens, and the pushback against tokenized equities. They also discuss Schwab's spot trading launch, why demand for tokenization comes from inside the institutions rather than from clients, and why regulatory clarity is still the biggest hurdle to full adoption.

Jim Ferraioli is Head of Crypto Research at Charles Schwab, where he brings a fundamental equities approach to analyzing blockchains and digital assets.

The walls between traditional finance and digital assets are coming down, and the next wave of innovation is just getting started.

Matt Hougan and Ryan Rasmussen say the money that was going to leave digital assets already left, and once the Anthropic IPO passes, the floodgates could open for capital rotating into the next big thing: tokenization and stablecoins.

Live from The Bridge by The Tie in New York City, Bitwise's CIO and Head of Research explain why short-term shocks from the Fed, the election and the AI trade are hiding what Hougan calls a long-term, extraordinarily great setup, driven by 300,000 financial advisors finally making a 2% allocation and regulation like the GENIUS Act still working its way through. They break down why there are no more sellers left, why digital assets look remarkably undervalued next to other categories, and why stablecoins, tokenization and perps are taking off at exactly the right time, with the regulation, the institutional adoption and the access all in place. They also explain why bad builders can no longer ride the beta, and why fundamental buyers stepping in should mean fewer 90% drawdowns for real projects with real revenue.

Arush Sehgal joins us for an insider look at the clearing breakthrough that could change how every tokenized asset trades.

Alpaca's Head of Digital Assets explains why the Instant Tokenization Network (ITN) has become essential infrastructure for tokenized equities, with over $5 billion in flows cleared in its first year. He breaks down the shift from tokenized custody to tokenized clearing, why post-trade settlement and multilateral netting matter, and what's live today versus coming next.

CZ joins us in NYC the same morning he rang the Nasdaq opening bell, with a clear message: tokenization is how the rest of the world gets access to U.S. markets.

Most people outside the U.S. can't open a U.S. brokerage account, and many who can are stuck with trading hours from midnight to 6 a.m. CZ explains why putting stocks onchain opens that liquidity to everyone, 24/7, and why it works in reverse for companies stuck in thin local markets. He also covers BNB Chain leading on tokenized real-world assets, why tokenizing gold, rare earths and other natural resources can finally give them liquidity, his take on the pushback from listed companies, and why traditional finance and onchain finance are becoming one industry.

Changpeng Zhao (CZ) is one of the most influential builders in digital assets. He joined The Rollup right after ringing the Nasdaq opening bell for BNB Standard Corporation.

Tarun Chitra says the future of money will be built to survive even if all of today's cryptography breaks. In this conversation, he explains why Ethereum works as a cryptographic safety net, and why the world computer was always a flawed idea. He also walks through how quantum money uses the no-cloning theorem to prevent double spends. From there he looks at where things go once compute is no longer the product, and what AI agents mean for digital assets.

Tarun Chitra is the founder and CEO of Gauntlet.

The next era of digital assets is closer than it looks.

Illia Polosukhin, Alex and Anton say the future of AI and finance is confidential and user-owned, and they think NEAR is set to lead it. In this conversation, the NEAR team explains why privacy has become a business requirement, and why open-weight models are quickly gaining ground. They also cover how NEAR hosts third-party models confidentially, and why AI agents need NEAR for reputation and civil resistance. Along the way they discuss quantum readiness, how Google built a manipulation engine, and what it takes to build a full agent economy.Illia Polosukhin is the co-founder of NEAR.

Alex breaks down the launch of the all new Aero across Base, Optimism, Arbitrum, Robinhood Chain and Ethereum mainnet, and why he sees it as the onchain NYSE to Hyperliquid's onchain CME. He also explains how better rewards for liquidity providers won Optimism and Base, why market makers have been asking Aero to expand, and how tokenized stocks and FX grow the whole spot market.

Sam Kazemian maps out why the next wave of stablecoin products will look nothing like today's consumer cards.

From Token 2049 DAS Asia, Sam walks through FraxNet as a neobank app store, why businesses want direct custody and credit on regulated stablecoins, and how a Frax DeFi card can reuse KYC across Aave, EtherFi, and more without starting from zero. He also argues FraxUSD's issuer relationships put Frax in position to power agent-style wallets that hold permissions once and move across venues.

Avalon Ingram says institutional adoption of tokenization is no longer a question, and Swift's live ledger is the proof.

Swift's blockchain-based shared ledger went live nine months after its announcement, with 17 banks transacting real tokenized commercial bank money. Avalon explains why Swift sees this as a necessary upgrade to the plumbing of global finance, how decoupling payment execution from settlement unlocks liquidity for banks and corporate treasurers, and why stablecoins and tokenized deposits will coexist in a hybrid world. She also covers why Asia has been ahead, what onchain settlement venues are needed for 24/7 markets, and how the network grows from 17 banks to thousands.

Avalon Ingram is the Digital Assets Business Lead at Swift.

Dan Romero joins The Rollup for an insider look at how stablecoins are about to power the next era of global payments.

Dan explains why the Genius Act opened the door for banks, enterprises, and payment giants to lean into stablecoins, and how Tempo's purpose-built chain, private zones, and agentic payments are built for that moment. He also shares his view on decentralization, new social experiences, and why builders can now ship almost anything they can imagine.

Dan Romero is Head of Go-To-Market at Tempo, the layer one built for stablecoin payments, and co-founder of Farcaster.

Illia Polosukhin joins us for a session at TOKEN2049 Singapore and explains why NEAR is one of the biggest opportunities in digital assets today.

He says it was designed with quantum computing in mind back in 2018, and anyone can now upgrade their account to post-quantum keys without moving a single asset. The NEAR co-founder explains how NEAR Intents is becoming a market of markets that aggregates crypto venues and now stocks, why he thinks the zero-sum layer one mindset is broken, and how a NEAR account can hold assets across Ethereum, Bitcoin and other chains. He also explains his vision for the endgame of NEAR and what the future look is for agentic finance onchain, on NEAR.

Illia Polosukhin is the Co-Founder and CEO of NEAR Protocol and NEAR AI, and a co-author of the “Attention Is All You Need” paper that introduced the transformer architecture.

Everyone wants good execution and access to the best opportunities and Keone Hon says that's why there's no real contradiction between Monad's consumer culture and its institutional liquidity push. He explains why the network effects are only now starting to compound from both directions, why building from scratch over a longer development cycle left them with foundations the core team knows cold, and what that unlocks next: solving MEV and squaring the apparent contradiction between privacy and composability. Ten months into mainnet, his biggest lesson is that speed is everything.

Seth Ginns says the market has the tokenization trade backwards: pre-IPO equities are the exciting story, but assets that already trade with deep liquidity, like equities and treasuries, benefit most from 24/7 markets. He and Anthony Pecore of the Franklin Crypto team also talk through the "odd looks" they got launching Benji, why tokenized money market funds are now table stakes, how equities could be split into separate profit pools, and why they think assets will one day live in wallets instead of accounts.

Anthony Pecore is SVP and Director of Digital Asset Management at Franklin Templeton, where he has helped lead its on-chain fund efforts, including the tokenized money market fund Benji, live since 2021. Seth Ginns is CIO at Franklin Crypto and was an equities investor for 18 years before launching a liquid crypto fund in 2020.

Never bet against Elon. Jordan Jefferson says if you can't see us getting to Mars, you're not going to make it, and Dogecoin ends up the currency when we do. He breaks down the DogeOS public testnet going live, shuts down the conspiracy that Elon is pumping Doge, and argues the only memecoin still in the hands of the people might just melt faces and take the whole industry. TJ Miller plays jester throughout, explaining why he roasts a different crypto figure at every conference and what it says about an ecosystem this allergic to laughing at itself.
