The Rise Up Morning Show – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Goodnow revolutionaries—

Today on The Rise Up Morning Show we welcomed back Dr. Adam Lowe, founder of Arculus, for a deeply technical session on what still holds crypto adoption back. We focused on the real frictions users feel daily: on-ramps that break across geographies, confusing security models, hard custody choices, and a rising wave of scams hitting retail users at scale.

Adam walked us through how Arculus tackles these bottlenecks with rate aggregation, global-friendly on-ramps, and cold-storage UX built for normal people instead of experts. From there the conversation moved into passkeys, embedded banking, account abstraction, and why removing visible complexity will carry the next wave of users onchain.

We dove into fears around government seizure, subpoenas, backdoors, and why true self-custody only works when hardware physically cannot comply. Adam broke down the realities of compliance requests and why cryptographic design must dictate what’s possible, not policy pressure.

We closed with the modern threat landscape: dusting, address poisoning, signature traps, recovery options, and the habits that keep users safe as scams grow more sophisticated. The session ended with institutional custody, multiparty access, and a preview of what Arculus aims to ship in 2026, from B2B integrations to yield flows to white-label wallet technology for onboardi

Alex and Will held down the fort while Evan recovered from a late night in Buenos Aires. The show opened light with weather talk and a few moon cycle jokes before shifting into the charts. They mapped out potential volatility around the upcoming Fed minutes and NVIDIA earnings, walked through Solana levels, and talked stablecoin yields and how to manage positions when the market refuses to pick a direction.

With much of the episode weaving around Base: They broke down developer sentiment, incentives, distribution, and why crypto continues to struggle expanding beyond its own bubble. They revisited early experiences with Base, highlighted how ecosystems misallocate resources, and explained why marketing, distribution, and real applications will always outperform burns, hype, and token mechanics.

The conversation widened to chain competition, gaming’s ongoing VC distortion problem, and how repeating the same growth playbook is keeping the entire space stagnant. Closing with real bright spots: Polygon’s Revolut integration and Arculus teaming with ChainAbuse to improve scam reporting and user protection.

Goodnow revolutionaries–

Today on the Rise Up Morning Show, Evan and Alex underscore that you can win your share of $25,000 (or more) through December by posting Polygon-related content on your socials and how Rise Up can help you do it.

A listener question about $DASH sparked a blast from the past and a conversation on what to do when a token pumps—how to trade the hype even if you don’t want to hold long-term. Then we turned to AI breakthroughs, exploring Sora 2 and CaffeineAI: agents can now build things for you, before asking whether a killer AI app could keep ICP afloat after its 100% rally this week (and why you might still want to stay cautious).

We closed on cold storage—is one device enough?—before riding our dogs and ponies into the sunset for the Circle After Show.

Goodnow, revolutionaries—

Today on The Rise Up Morning Show, we cover a packed slate of crypto news, updates, and practical education for learners at every level.

We kick things off with the rising trend of corporate ETH treasuries, spotlighting Sharplink’s recent decision to hold Ethereum on their balance sheet. Then we move to Washington, where Crypto Week in Congress brings momentum to legislation like the GENIUS Act, the CLARITY Act, and a new anti-CBDC surveillance bill—we explore what these bills mean, and where they stand now.

We also unpack yesterday’s news that FedWire is adopting ISO 20022 messaging standards… so, why aren’t the so-called "ISO tokens" pumping? 

PLUS:
 – We walk through how to check your Katana rewards
– Will makes a case for upgrading the concept of Bitcoin’s “4-Year Cycle” to an 8-Year Supercycle
– An explosion of $PUMP perps/options and what it might mean for their rumored airdrop
– Our favorite news sources and newsletters (links below)
– Audience questions about exchanges, self-custody wallets, and common scam tactics

Whether you're wondering what to buy, where to store it, or what it all means—get ready to Rise Up!

Goodnow, revolutionaries—

We’re still riding the wave of yesterday’s Bitcoin all-time high, and today’s show is packed with practical education for crypto learners of all levels.

Alex kicks things off with a workshop on how to take profits—even on a position in the red—by capitalizing on volatility and tracking longterm trends. We break it down using Ethereum and Solana as case studies to show how smart moves in a sideways market can still bring gains.

Then Will joins to answer one of our most frequently-asked questions: wen altcoin season?! He shares what the reversal in Bitcoin dominance might mean for altcoins—and we pull up the charts on Chainlink, Algorand, and Virtuals to spot signals that could point to upside opportunities.

We also:
– Answer audience questions about XCN and ZBEC
– Break down what Layer 1, Layer 2, and Layer 3 actually mean
– Compare self-custody to centralized exchanges like Coinbase
– And wrap with a live Q&A on private keys, plus a powerful discussion on why crypto matters in the first place

If you’ve ever struggled to explain why people might care about crypto—this is the episode to share.

What if gold is the new Bitcoin... and Bitcoin is now the new altcoin?

You’ll get:
- Macro updates with charts and context
- A sector sweep across major altcoins
