The Hidden Truth About Prediction Market Fatigue with Rob Hadick

The DAT meta is everywhere, but is it sustainable?

We sit down with Rob Hadick from Dragonfly to cut through the noise. Rob breaks down why he thinks we're hitting exhaustion on digital asset treasury companies, where the real institutional capital is coming from, and why traditional founders are finally making the jump into crypto.

We dive into prediction markets fatigue, why Dragonfly is doubling down on payments and DeFi infrastructure, and Rob's take on how stablecoins could completely bypass traditional banking rails.

Let's get after it.
