Market Mates

Crypto tax is one of the easiest areas for traders to get wrong, especially heading into EOFY. In today’s MarketMates livestream, we’re joined by a crypto tax accountant who understands both Australian and US crypto tax rules to break down what traders, investors, DeFi users, stakers, and NFT/memecoin traders need to know before filing.

AI crypto tokens are heating up again, with OpenServ, Quack AI, Swarm Network, Unibase and other AI-related altcoins showing major strength while the broader market stays uncertain. Today on Market Mates, we break down whether AI x Crypto is becoming the next major altcoin narrative, which tokens are moving, what traders should watch, and how to separate real AI infrastructure from hype, scams and fake exposure tokens.

Crypto is holding on a knife edge as Bitcoin fights around the $80K–$82K zone, ETF flows remain strong, AI crypto tokens are heating up, and the Clarity Act vote could become a major catalyst for altcoins.

Altcoins are finally catching a serious bid as SUI, TON, VVV, JUP, ENA, NEAR memecoins and other high-beta crypto sectors start moving hard while Bitcoin stalls around the $80K zone. In today’s Market Mates podcast, Greeny and Craig break down whether this is the early stage of a real altcoin season, just a short-term rotation, or another trap before the next macro event. We cover the latest moves across altcoins like SUI, Hyperliquid, Solana, memecoins, Bitcoin dominance, ETF flows, macro pressure from NFP and Iran tensions, plus the major crypto stories shaping the week including Meta stablecoins, Coinbase earnings, Kraken’s bank charter push, and Tom Lee’s $200K Bitcoin call.

Michael Saylor selling Bitcoin? BTC hit $82K, altcoins are rallying, and the market could be at a major turning point. We break down Bitcoin, altcoins, and the biggest crypto narratives live today. Ben (former CEO) of Killabears joins us for an update on their NFT movie

Bitcoin is back near the $80K decision point, but Michael Saylor’s Strategy just paused Bitcoin buys before one of the biggest crypto earnings calls of the year. Tonight, Strategy reports Q1 earnings under the new fair-value accounting rules, with a reported $14.46 billion unrealised Bitcoin loss on the books — while still holding over 818,000 BTC. In today’s Market Mates livestream, Greeny and Craig break down whether Saylor’s pause matters, why the $82K Bitcoin level could decide the next major move, what the CLARITY Act stablecoin compromise means for crypto regulation, and how Iran/oil headlines are still controlling risk assets. Topics include Bitcoin, crypto news, AI disruption, market risk, stablecoins, macro pressure, and why this environment feels different right now.

Bitcoin is sitting at a major decision point as oil prices surge, the Federal Reserve keeps rates on hold, and massive Big Tech earnings split the market. In today’s livestream, we break down the latest Bitcoin price action, why the oil shock matters for inflation and risk assets, Jerome Powell’s latest FOMC message, and what earnings from Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon and Apple mean for crypto markets.

Bitcoin has rallied hard into a huge macro week, but is this the start of a real breakout or just another bull trap? NFTs saw that best performing week and month in years. Today we break down the key BTC levels, the FOMC risk, whale accumulation, ETF/options positioning, Bitcoin Vegas sell-the-news history, and the macro events that could decide whether this rally continues or gets rejected.

We interview Michael Figge, the new CEO of Yuga Labs, to discuss Bored Ape Yacht Club, Otherside, the future of NFTs, and whether Yuga can lead the next chapter of crypto culture. Featuring Greeny and Craig from Market Mates.

Claude keeps getting better, crypto traders still haven’t fully caught up, and today we’re breaking down what actually matters. We’re covering the latest Claude and AI developments, what OpenAI is doing, whether new tools are starting to replace old trading workflows, and why crypto is holding up even while macro risk stays elevated.

Today on Market Mates, we break down two of the biggest stories in tech and crypto right now. Vercel has confirmed a security incident involving unauthorized access to certain internal systems, with the company saying the attack appears linked to a compromised third-party AI tool’s Google Workspace OAuth app. At the same time, crypto was hit with another major shock after the reported $292M Kelp DAO exploit raised fresh questions around DeFi risk, bridge security, collateral quality, and whether the stack is becoming too fragile to trust.

Bitcoin is back above $75,000 and altcoins are finally showing real strength, with names like GRASS, Akash, Fartcoin and SPX meme coin all pushing higher as crypto risk appetite improves. But is this the start of a bigger breakout, or just another relief rally that fails at key resistance?
