This week on Galaxy Grid, the hosts break down a massive week in crypto, starting with Bitcoin surging past the $80k mark amidst ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. Alex shares boots-on-the-ground insights from the Bitcoin Vegas conference, including the latest debates surrounding quantum threats and Satoshi's legacy coins. The crew then analyzes Pump.fun's dramatic decision to burn $370 million of its token supply and pivot to a 50% programmatic buy-and-burn model, sparking a wider debate on the effectiveness of token buybacks. Next, they explore Hyperliquid's launch of HIP-4 outcome markets and how the platform is challenging Deribit in the zero-DTE options space. Finally, the team dissects the bizarre temporary restraining order targeting the Arbitrum DAO over recovered exploit funds and provides an optimistic timeline for the Clarity Act's upcoming Senate markup.
