Crypto natives entered 2025 with many expectations, but bingo cards likely did not include world leaders launching memecoins.
In this first installment of a two-part Unchained Special, Ambient Finance founder Doug Colkitt and “Gwart” join to offer a whimsical take on some of the year’s major happenings as it pertains to crypto.

Guests:
-
- Doug Colkitt, Co-founder of Fogo and Ambient Finance
- Gwart, Host of The Gwart Show
