LIVE TOMORROW: The onchain revenue saga we will cover all revenue generating apps, protocols and who captures the most value by hosts: @TimHaldorsson @Jackhaldorsson @shannholmberg @sirsamjenks

the three things every chain is fighting for right now > perps > tokenized stocks > defi perps print revenue, look at hyperliquid tokenized stocks are still a tiny fraction of the stock market, trade 24/7 & open to everyone time to accelerate ⚡️

why robinhood chain is working > around 30M active users > a trading platform already in place almost every L1 team I talk to is now pivoting to their own perps or trading venue, Somnia building a dex, Katana with katana perps without a retail app to fuel transactions, a chain is a very hard business ⚡️ with the hosts @jackhaldorsson, @shannholmberg @sirsamjenks
