What happened

Ari Redbord appeared on the DEX in the City podcast with hosts Katherine, Jessi, and Vy, where he talked about the need for clearer SEC guidance, the rapid growth of onshore perpetual futures, security weaknesses in DeFi tied to phone numbers, and suggested that the United States should retaliate against North Korea’s cyber activities.

Confirmed

Global impact / market context

Clear SEC rules could lower compliance costs for crypto firms, the onshore perps boom may boost trading revenue for exchanges, and addressing phone‑number‑based security flaws can protect user assets, while geopolitical cyber actions could influence future regulatory stances.

Analyst inference

The crypto market is currently navigating uncertain regulatory signals from the SEC, while onshore perpetual contracts are attracting more traders, and security breaches linked to personal data are raising concerns among users and developers.

Analyst inference

What to watch

  1. Any formal SEC guidance or rulemaking on crypto assets, which would shape how companies structure offerings and manage compliance. Analyst inference
  2. Growth trends in onshore perpetual futures trading volume, indicating how much capital is flowing into these leveraged products. Analyst inference
  3. Development of security tools or standards that protect users from phone‑number‑based attacks in DeFi, reducing the risk of account compromise. Analyst inference
