In this year-end Bits + Bips roundtable, hosts Austin Campbell and Chris Perkins are joined by John D’Agostino, Head of Strategy at Coinbase Institutional, for a wide-ranging and often contentious look at what 2026 may hold for crypto.

They debate whether a major global brand will launch its own stablecoin, whether altcoins are structurally doomed—or secretly set up for a Wall Street–driven resurgence—and whether a major crypto hack is coming.

The conversation also explores how tokens accrue value and whether there will be a new M&A trend that’ll reshape the industry as we know it.

Plus: don’t miss what they have to say about NFTs, financial nihilism, and whether we’ll see all-time highs for bitcoin in 2026.

Hosts:
⁠⭐️ Austin Campbell⁠, NYU Stern professor and Founder of Zero Knowledge Consulting
⁠⭐️ Christopher Perkins⁠, Managing Partner and President of CoinFund

Guest:
⁠⭐️ John D'Agostino⁠, Head of Strategy for Coinbase Institutional
