Unchained executive editor Steve Ehrlich interviews Bob Diamond and David Schamis of Hyperliquid Strategies—two TradFi veterans now making a bold bet on Hyperliquid with recently launched a DAT this week.
They explain why they believe Hyperliquid is the most compelling project in crypto today, why they launched a DAT to give U.S. investors access to HYPE, and how the deal structure differs from typical crypto equity vehicles.
Diamond and Schamis also walk through Hyperliquid’s performance during the 10/10 market chaos, the strength of its perps engine, what HIP-3 unlocks for builders, and why they think the opportunity ahead is far larger than crypto trading alone.
Host:
⭐️ Steve Ehrlich, Executive Editor at Unchained
