Kraken just went full Apple with their “Krak The World” sword ad—and no, this wasn’t just some edgy trailer. This was their 1984 moment. Coinbase might be the Microsoft of crypto—default, everywhere, predictable. But Kraken? They’re thinking different. Behind the scenes, they quietly listed Aethir (ATH)—a decentralized cloud infrastructure project powering AI and gaming at scale.

In this episode, I break down why "Krak The World" is a political and cultural statement. You'll also get my Future Price Prediction on Aethir—and when I think it moves.

In today’s episode, I spotlight a massive private equity fraud that just ended in prison time for two former executives. They raised over $1.6 billion with fake performance numbers and misleading payouts, fooling investors for years. We dive into how they pulled it off—and why stories like this still matter in today’s financial system.

Then I shift to what’s next: a future price prediction (FPP) on Virtuals Protocol, a rising Web3 project flying under the radar. If you missed early moves like Solana, this might be the signal you’re looking for.

Topics covered:

GPB Capital fraud breakdown

SEC and DOJ enforcement trends

Future price prediction (FPP) on Virtuals Protocol

Crypto & Web3 signals you’re not hearing elsewhere

Matthew Brown had 27 Ferraris when the feds came knocking—bought with millions skimmed from payroll taxes in a years-long fraud. Now, the government’s seizing it all, and rumor has it those cars may end up auctioned… for Bitcoin. From fraud to the find, I break it down—then shift gears to Plume Network and why I’m paying attention.

Podcaster and Social Media Influencer Tyler Bossetti, 31, was charged in U.S. District Court in Columbus with wire fraud and aiding the filing of a false or fraudulent document. In a court document, federal prosecutors say that Bossetti knowingly participated in the four-year scheme in Ohio and elsewhere "to defraud and to deprive another of money and property by materially false and fraudulent pretenses, representations, and promises."

I take a look inside this RE fraud before I get into a Future Price Prediction on Propbase, an RWA tokenization marketplace where Blockchain and Real Estate intersect on the rails of Web3.

In today’s episode, we look at two epic collapses—one in the courtroom and one on-chain. Lori Vallow-Daybell, already convicted for her role in a disturbing murder case, is now representing herself in a separate Arizona trial. We break down what that means, why it rarely ends well, and how this bizarre move mirrors her unraveling.

Then we shift to the crypto world, where the Mantra OM token has imploded. After reaching impressive highs as a Real World Asset narrative darling, it’s now crashed hard—raising serious questions about its foundations, leadership, and whether these expat-run projects ever had staying power.

This is one of those episodes where the warning signs were there all along—and we connect the dots.

In this episode of The Chip Mahoney Show, I’m joined by Texas-based criminal defense lawyer Tad Nelson, a courtroom veteran with a background in forensic science and a reputation for fighting tough cases.

We talk about major crimes, the haunting stretch of I-45 known for decades of unsolved murders, and the evolving tools of justice—from genetic genealogy to the potential of blockchain in law.

We also revisit one of Houston’s most disturbing cold cases—the 1990 Lover’s Lane murders—and explore why DNA hasn’t cracked it, what the presence of a long-barreled gun might suggest, and why the killer may have never intended to pull the trigger.

At the end, Tad brings it all home with a reminder of what criminal defense is really about: protecting the Constitution, even when the headlines say otherwise.

If you’re into true crime, courtroom insight, and stories the news won’t tell you—this one’s for you.

First, we dive into the latest developments surrounding Charlie Javice, the embattled founder of Frank, whose downfall echoes the stories of Elizabeth Holmes and Sam Bankman-Fried. What does her case tell us about synthetic data, startup culture, and where we draw the line between ambition and fraud?

Then, we shift to "MI: The Final Reckoning"—an ending for a franchise that always brings entertainment to the theatre.

Finally, we look ahead, not back—with a breakdown of CoW Protocol, a rising star in the DEX ecosystem. If you missed Solana or the Base chain pump, this might be your next chance. And with founder Anna George drawing comparisons to Cathie Wood, CoW could be the Skyscanner of DeFi. You’ll want to hear this before it hits everyone’s radar.

Tap in—because the past is catching up, and the future is quietly being built.

Jonathan Mast, AI consultant and founder of White Beard Strategies (https://whitebeardstrategies.com/), joins The Chip Mahoney Show to break down how artificial intelligence is reshaping business—but not in the way you think. We dig into why Consumer AI might be overhyped, how Business AI is quietly creating the real edge, and what happens when a 12-year-old and a PhD use the same tools.

Jonathan shares how companies are rethinking lead generation, customer engagement, and competitive advantage in a world where everyone has access to the same powerful platforms. We also explore historical parallels like the Gold Rush—and why AI might be repeating the pattern.

Whether you're an investor, entrepreneur, or just trying to stay ahead of the AI curve, this episode will challenge the narrative and give you practical insight into the future of tech-driven strategy.
