Crypto has always been a game of extremes. On one end, a memecoins casino and speculative madness; on the other, an attempt to build something more sustainable.
In today's episode, we sit down with Chris Yin, co-founder and CEO of Plume Network, to cut through the noise around RWAs. Chris explains why most RWA projects are just "TradFi people doing TradFi stuff on chain" and why that approach is missing the point entirely.
From the reality behind BlackRock's crypto plays to why stable coins remain the only RWA that truly matters, Chris shares an insider's perspective on building infrastructure that brings real-world value on chain - the right way.
We also dive into the challenges of building sustainable crypto products, why bottom-up adoption beats institutional onboarding, and what assets beyond T-bills actually make sense to tokenize.
Let's get into it.
