Hey all, before we begin, I've got some exciting news to share. We've been working on something

a little wild behind the scenes. It's called Unchained On Air, a revamped live stream series and podcast

feed that takes you way beyond the headlines. It features sharp, maybe even controversial,

takes on major events, and the kind of on-chain intel that never makes it to your feed. Way more shows, way more often, each one laser-focused on a different slice of crypto and finance. First up is decks in the city, where the wallets are cold and the takes are hot, with Jesse Brooks, Catherineatherine kirkpatrick baws and v lee three powerhouse lawyers

gathering to dish about the latest from defy enforcement to token regulation and everything in between

it live streams every t t t t uneas uneasy money because what happens on chain never stays on chain with

Lucan Nets, Kane Warwick, and Taylor Monaghan. Three OG-DFI builders unpacking everything

happening on chain, from tokenomics to dows, from hacks to yields. It airs Wednesdays at 3pm

ET. And finally, Bits and Bips the interview,

an addition to our group chat show, in which our executive editor, Stephen Erlich, takes you

deeper with one-on-one conversations. This streams on Thursdays at 12 p.m. ET. To catch the live

streams, follow Unchained on X,

subscribe on YouTube, or find us on your favorite streaming platform now.

And don't forget to hit the bell icon so you never miss a show.

And if you can't make the live stream,

these episodes will show up in your podcast feed the very next day.

Thanks, as always, for your support.
