In the one-year anniversary episode of Galaxy Grid, the hosts unpack a turbulent week for digital assets as Bitcoin posts its first red weekly close since September amid heavy ETF outflows. The panel breaks down the market's sudden wall of worry, analyzing whether OpenAI’s latest algorithmic math breakthroughs pose a legitimate existential threat to foundational cryptography, alongside the fallout from a third-party Ledger supply chain attack. The discussion then shifts to onchain market structure with a look at Paper Trade, a newly launched zero-slippage, 1000x leverage perps protocol on Hyper EVM, and how traders immediately exploited its underlying mechanics. Finally, Thad and Will present their latest quantitative research, detailing why broad-based tokenized stocks severely underperform in automated market makers (AMMs) and breaking down the harsh reality of retail profitability and algorithmic edge on Polymarket.
