About this episode

Scott Melker, host of The Wolf of All Streets, joins Frank Chaparro for a conversation about where the crypto market currently stands.Scott breaks down the CLARITY Act at the finish line at what he calls coin-flip odds, why the fight has quietly narrowed to ethics and whether the president can participate in the crypto industry, and how Trump's meme coin reshaped the debate. Scott also discusses why price conversations have gone quiet at the institutional events and that "institutional adoption" so far has meant firms building products for retail rather than buying tokens for their own books. He also reflects on his own path from trading all day in public to building a more measured voice that bridges crypto and traditional finance.A candid read on the cycle, the narratives, and the gap between what's being built and what the market is paying for.
