Nate, founder of Long, the launchpad behind the Robinhood chain stock-meme run, sits down for his first ever stream to explain what you are actually trading when you buy a stock-paired coin, why he built it without a bonding curve, and how a pair puts real buy pressure on the underlying stock.

More from Threadguy Live
Threadguy tells the story of Amaranth, the 2006 hedge fund that bet a third of its book on one natural gas trader, and how Ken Griffin turned its collapse into a billion dollars. Then the PHP exploit found with AI, what sneaker botting teaches about offense vs defense, why public trader beef is good for markets, and why crypto looks fine while the bear case plays out everywhere else.
Threadguy is officially back on the winning team. After a night of commencement speeches and More Money Than God, he lays out why the AI unwind hasn't dragged crypto down, the faked chart behind the greatest trade of Black Monday, and why reasoning by analogy is a waste of time.

After Justin Drake's bunker mode post and OpenAI's math results sent crypto into a cryptography panic, Threadguy sits down with Mert, NEAR founder Illia Polosukhin and cryptographer ZK Dragon to find out how worried we should actually be. They cover how close AI really is to cracking the math, what quantum computers will actually be pointed at, how chains would respond if the worst case hit tomorrow, and who on Earth could even pull it off.
