S01E02: Inside the Market Crash

Season 1 · Episode 2

Tuesday, October 14, 2025 • Duration 01:07:02

Episode 2: Inside the Crypto Market Crash.

In this episode, Sean and Ian break down one of the wildest 24 hours in recent memory, the Flash Crash that sent majors tumbling and shook the entire crypto market.

BTC, ETH, and SOL plunged 12–25%, alts cratered 50%+, and even US stocks took a hit. Meanwhile, USDe lost its peg and panic rippled across DeFi. But in the chaos, one surprise winner emerged: Zcash, surging after new institutional support from Grayscale and key endorsements from top KOLs like Naval.

What triggered the selloff? Was it China’s new rare earth export controls? Or something darker, like an insider profiting $190M amid mass liquidations on Aave and other platforms?

Sean and Ian unpack the numbers, the narratives, and the lessons from this event, including why perps are short volatility instruments (and why that matters for survival), how Wintermute didn’t blow up, and what this means for the next phase of the market.

Is this a Black Swan, or just another stress test in an over-levered system? And most importantly: can the bull run continue from here?
