I don’t think the toothpaste goes back in the tube. Crypto is a real asset class now. If anything, extractive retail practices and bad actors leave the space out of fear of reprisal. That’s good for the industry and for the long term value of projects with real fundamentals. higher

"There's just more interesting things to speculate on right now." In episode 3 of The Desk, we talk with Spencer Hallarn, GSR's head of markets, about why RWA perps are 63% of Hyperliquid's volume, what actually broke situational awareness, and why he thinks the panic around Saylor is overplayed.

GSR was founded in 2013. Aave didn't exist. Tether didn't exist. Monero didn't exist. Uniswap didn't exist. Chainlink didn't exist. Binance didn't exist. Solana didn't exist. Base didn't exist. Crypto has grown a lot over the years. And the best is still ahead of us.
