Listen "Why Arbitrum Won Over Robinhood + A $59 Million Polymarket Controversy - Ep. 863"
Episode Synopsis
Today, we’ve got two very different stories in one episode.
First, Steven Goldfeder, co-founder of Offchain Labs, joins Unchained to explain why Robinhood is rebuilding its product on the Arbitrum tech stack, what it says about crypto’s evolution, and how this could finally bridge Web2 and Web3.
Then, Calvin Hamilton breaks down the bizarre $59 million bet on whether President Zelensky wore a suit — and why vague rules, a fateful tweet, and one protocol’s vote could damage Polymarket’s reputation.
