Welcome to The Chopping Block, where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, and Tarun Chitra are joined by FOMO co-founder Paul Erlanger to chop it up about the latest in crypto.

After getting dunked on as uncs for last week’s memecoin takes, the crew brings on the founder at the center of it. Paul lays out FOMO’s case for a fully transparent trading social graph, Tarun reports back from a holiday weekend in the trenches, and Haseeb holds the line on where memecoin trading actually destroys value. Then: Hunter Biden’s $LAPTOP token, the Pons versus Stonk.fun versus Pump launchpad war, AMC’s CEO versus Robinhood’s tokenized stocks, and the OpenAI versus Anthropic fight over who solved Navier-Stokes.
