ROLLUP: $3B ETH Whale | Roman Storm Verdict | Trump 401(k) Crypto Order

On this week’s Weekly Rollup, Ryan and David cover Tom Lee’s $3B ETH buying spree at 12x Michael Saylor’s pace, the race to become the top Ethereum treasury, and whether these companies are a buy or not. They also discuss the Roman Storm verdict, Trump’s surprise $8.7T 401(k) crypto order, and Arthur Hayes selling millions in ETH. Plus, Base’s 33-minute outage, the launch of Succinct’s ZK prover network, and the SEC declaring liquid staking tokens are not securities. --- 📣SPOTIFY PREMIUM RSS FEED | USE CODE: SPOTIFY24 https://bankless.cc/spotify-premium --- BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 🪙FRAX | SELF SUFFICIENT DeFi https://bankless.cc/Frax 🦄UNISWAP | SWAP ON UNICHAIN https://bankless.cc/unichain 🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORK https://bankless.cc/Mantle --- TIMESTAMPS & RESOURCES 0:00 Intro 6:17 Markets https://www.cbsnews.com/news/jobs-report-today-july-2025-economy-tariffs-trump-doge/ https://x.com/CryptoHayes/status/1951510939469292023 https://x.com/EricBalchunas/status/1952346941523701954 https://x.com/MitchellHODL/status/1948779978579214777 https://x.com/cburniske/status/1953240847669182937 13:05 Tom Lee becomes the largest crypto holder https://x.com/WhaleInsider/status/1952386215975469242 https://www.tradingview.com/chart/1CDu50yK/?symbol=AMEX%3ABMNR https://x.com/RyanSAdams/status/1952386046206890262 https://youtu.be/iClsnZ1KYSk?si=Ko99PtLiTCiJ_Q-O https://x.com/fabdarice/status/1953110071493439604 https://www.strategicethreserve.xyz/ https://x.com/NateGeraci/status/1953272814422937941 https://blockworks.co/analytics/treasury-companies/market-data https://www.theblock.co/post/365645/mei-pharma-litecoin-treasury-strategy-charlie-lee-gsr 25:31 Roman Storm’s case came to the end https://x.com/SDNYnews/status/1953196594876301702 ​​https://x.com/valkenburgh/status/1953149843565605015 https://x.com/katiebiber/status/1953235191893549123 https://x.com/jchervinsky/status/1953142247504908496 https://x.com/RyanSAdams/status/1953147290165641407 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfKSKz3Kafk 36:10 Executive order - crypto in your 401k https://watcher.guru/news/trump-to-sign-order-allowing-crypto-in-401k-retirement-plans 41:20 Base halted block production for half an hour https://x.com/jessepollak/status/1952785312767459709 https://x.com/TrustlessState/status/1953129400087572524 45:22 Succinct Prover Network is live! https://x.com/pumatheuma/status/1952836524808257580 https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/succinct 49:00 SEC said LSTs are not securities https://x.com/RebeccaRettig1/status/1952780309876867200 https://x.com/jespow/status/1952833684392034404 50:23 Metamask is about to launch its stablecoin https://x.com/AggrNews/status/1952821245814182346 51:41 Barry Silbert returns to Grayscale as chairman https://x.com/BarrySilbert/status/1952460252571468187 52:29 China said Worldcoin-style iris data collection are national security threat https://www.theblock.co/post/365752/chinese-security-ministry-flags-iris-national-threat https://x.com/BanklessHQ/status/1947265308416229745 55:43 Coinbase Ad was banned in the UK https://x.com/brian_armstrong/status/1952152928044847477 https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/aug/04/george-osborne-uk-cryptocurrency-boom-left-behind 58:02 Closing & Disclaimers 58:11 Moment of Zen https://x.com/coinbase/status/1950843893240496564 --- Not financial or tax advice.
