Welcome to The Crypto Podcast. You can find all our episodes on thecryptopodcast.org. My guest today spent years inside the room where crypto’s rules actually get written. As a regulatory crypto attorney, he’s advised leading exchanges on exactly what they could and couldn’t legally offer, and he helped launch the first crypto ETFs on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Now he’s on the other side of the table as CEO of Yield School and founder of New Market Trading, helping everyday investors get access to the primary markets that most retail traders never know exist. Please welcome Frank Hepworth. In this episode, Roy and Frank cover the regulatory landscape shaping crypto today, including the Genius Act, the pending Clarity Act, and why Frank believes Europe’s MiCA legislation forced crypto into traditional finance and backfired. Frank explains how New Market Trading uses smart contract technology so clients retain full self-custody while still getting professional portfolio management, why institutional ETF buyers have been buying the top and selling the bottom like retail investors, and how he evaluates which crypto assets are worth investing in using a commodity-versus-business framework. The conversation closes with a detailed, refreshingly honest breakdown of why real estate tokenization is far less advanced than people assume, and why native on-chain companies, not tokenized off-chain assets, are where Frank believes the space is actually heading.

In this episode of The Crypto Podcast, Roy sits down with Paul Brower, Director of Engineering at Casa — the gold standard in Bitcoin self-custody — where he leads a 12-person team building AI-first workflows to protect billions of dollars in Bitcoin. Before Casa, Paul spent seven years building the first FDA-approved digital pill software, was an early Bitcoin adopter since 2011 (including a Mt. Gox close call), and even spent three episodes on an MTV reality dating show. Paul breaks down how Casa’s multi-sig self-custody system works (2-of-3, 3-of-5), how attackers are now using AI-powered spearphishing and deepfakes to impersonate support staff, and how cryptographic PIN verification protects users from social engineering. He also covers key loss prevention (health checks, hardware redundancy, YubiKeys vs. Trezor/Ledger), Casa’s inheritance system for passing on Bitcoin securely, the risks of giving AI agents access to financial accounts, and why physical air-gapped hardware remains one of the strongest defenses against an increasingly AI-powered threat landscape.

You bought Bitcoin early. You held through the crashes, the media panic, and you never sold. So why is your daily life exactly the same? Today’s guest says there’s a third option most crypto holders don’t even know exists — and it doesn’t involve selling a single coin. Brandon Diggs from Overseas DeFi joins the show to reveal what productive crypto actually looks like, and how you can turn your idle holdings into a monthly cash flow machine using Decentralised Finance.

What happens if you’re in a crisis and your family can’t find your medical directive? Or worse, what if a ”disgruntled relative” alters your will after you’re gone? In this episode of The Crypto Podcast, we sit down with Dan Beech, a veteran wealth manager who has advised billionaires and overseen $1.4 billion in sales. Dan is the founder of Archively, a patent-pending platform that uses dual-blockchain technology and NFT hashing to ensure your most critical life documents are encrypted, unalterable, and accessible in seconds. We dive into the ”Secure 3” architecture, the dangers of relying on Big Tech for data storage, and how Dan is using technology to solve the logistical and emotional challenges of estate planning.

He’s one of the few people in America who can say—credibly—that he hasn’t paid income tax in over 10 years and hasn’t held a driver’s license in nearly 20… with zero legal consequences. Not because he’s hiding, but because he understands the law better than the institutions enforcing it.Dan has beaten government agencies at their own game—from the IRS to the FEC—forcing them to back down when they overstep. He’s also taken on major corporations and won. His work isn’t theory. It’s real-world rebellion backed by deep knowledge of how financial, legal, and political systems actually function—not how we’re told they function.What we Discussed: 0:00 Intro and what happened my back 02:24 How he realised the Goverment tax was fraud 04:40 Fighting Traffic Tickets 07:00 The System is designed to trick you of your rights 10:00 De-Registering Your Car 12:45 Getting a Fake Drivers Lisence 14:35 Taking the Car because of No Insurance 16:42 Your name is all Caps 18:50 Locked out of his Crypto account without a Driving Lisence 21:45 Trumps Tariffs War 29:30 Insurance is a Gamble and Scam 34:50 Insure Yourself to protect yourself 36:00 Health Insurance was more expensive for the person covered 37:45 Insurance company refusing to pay 38:35 A Crypto Currency to Fix the Corrupt money system 40:45 Monero is posing a theat to the system 42:40 Bitcoin is Inflationary 44:30 Finding better ways to get Crytpo Adoption 46:35 Merc froze my Crypto account 48:05 Anti Money laundering is about taxes 52:30 Sending a Tax form to the IRS can be used against you 55:25 The IRS would need to explain the tax code 58:45 Not charging Sales Tax 1:04:30 Once you pay tax the government does what they want 1:06:55 You can get your taxes back within 1 year.
