EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of All-In Podcast, featuring David Friedberg and Jason Calacanis, E132: SEC goes after crypto giants, Sequoia splits, LIV/PGA, Messi's deal + LIVE Q&A! explores sEC targets crypto, Sequoia restructures, sports money rewrites power dynamics The episode opens with politics and media, focusing on RFK Jr.’s crossover appeal to Republicans, his positions on censorship, COVID vaccines, and the border, and the backlash Chamath and Sacks receive for supporting him. The core of the show centers on the SEC’s aggressive actions against Binance and Coinbase, what that means for crypto’s future in the U.S., and how regulation, investor protection, and government control over fiat intersect. They then dissect Sequoia Capital’s decision to spin out its China and India operations as emblematic of de‑globalization, geopolitical pressure, and internal strategy shifts, before pivoting to the economics of sports: LIV–PGA’s controversial merger and Lionel Messi’s innovative MLS deal that treats him as a content/equity partner, not just an athlete. A live Q&A segment closes the show, touching on AI’s impact on jobs and education, deepfakes, banking risk, venture’s role in politics, and how investors are thinking about AI opportunities.
