In short
Market outlook and “positioning for upside crash” across stocks, biotech (especially GLP-1/obesity drugs), AI agents, geopolitics/oil, rates, and crypto. Guests also discuss crypto’s rebound drivers and tokenization.
Guest backgrounds
Main interview guest is Kristoffer Koch, CEO and co-founder of Virtune (crypto trading/investment platform). Earlier in the episode, the hosts discuss biotech/AI/markets themselves (no additional guest names clearly identified in the transcript).
Key claims
GLP-1 pipelines need visible progress (not just targets) to avoid sentiment drops; obesity/diabetes expansion and maintenance studies could broaden value. Meta’s “Muse” AI agent (on-device/edge computing) signals an AI hardware upgrade cycle. Oil and risk assets are influenced by Iran/US/China diplomacy, while Treasury/Besant-style flows and quarter shifts can drive squeezes. In crypto, Bitcoin’s rise is linked to institutional/ETF-like access and short-covering; tokenization is accelerating (Ethereum-centric).
Notable examples
Viking biotech stock up ~40% on data; Meta Muse up ~11%; Unicure 4-year Huntington’s data; semaglutide supply/Canada-to-US; Nasdaq/NYSE tokenization initiatives; Virtune products (XRP, Solana); Virtune claims 100% physically backed crypto products via Coinbase custody.

And we want to have a good time. And that's what we're going to do. We're going to have a good time. We're going to have a party. We'll be right back.
0:45I'm going to be like, I'm going to be really good. It's been a little bit of oil trades. It was a little bit of a trade. It was a new one. It was a new one. Today came Viking with a little data that we could talk about. I thought you'd say you'd say that you'd say that you'd say to you in the morning. So it went up to 40%. Yeah, it's really good.
1:01Virtune AB:I'm going to wait for data from a biotech. It's a different type of company. Some also is any day now. So I feel like it's not a good thing. Then you, do you want to talk about Meta's new agent? What's the name? Muse. Can you test it? No. But clearly many others have done it. It went up 11 % and then we talked about all around Apple with more. Those who haven't satsated on so much AI can become a win on a social media agent. Yeah, exactly. We'll come in on that. And then we have FN's conference conference in New York where both Irans president We have Kinas president It's many kändisers who are here Alla will come So there will happen a little bit of stuff Trump will hold his 7-timmars-tall there He will be able to hold it We'll see what he has said there It's been a part of crypto It's a kvartals-skifte You've done a little bit of a minnehaven It happens always on the market Precis The big red tråd this week is that it's a diplomat-vecca All the plastic-halssar geopolitiska plastkassarna i världen hoppas man ska bli lite lättare.
2:20Du har tagit in Botell Diplomat här boständsmässigt den här veckan.
2:25Virtune AB:Och sen i slutet av det här avsnittet så har vi en intervju med Virtunes, vd och medgrundare Kristoffer Koch och det är ju toppen att ha honom med idag för det är ju bokstavligen bubbla ju i kryptomarknaden. Det har hänt mycket senaste tiden. Det har hänt väldigt mycket. So listen to that, it's really interesting to talk about what it is that's what we're going to look at what we're going to look at now, what's happening before how the fundamentals are going to happen what's happening in crypto-world and what we're going to look at listen to the end of the episode we're going to go
3:04and we're sponsored by Robomarket so it's still a little bit In the Nordic, so it's perfect to have a depot with Robomarkets. So you can handle the US-RM. Today we had Viking. So you can see your data that's very much up in the market. You can see how it's going to be after. Then you can handle both from long and short with Robomarkets. With a value-to on C9SK so you can't slask out a lot of money. Exactly.
3:34Virtune AB:And if you want to handle AI-RM so it's on the US-RM. it's happening, for example, Meta has been Muse, and everything flyer and far AMD, with more Intel, all things and then it's not a job of a market now it's a between-a-vars-val in the USA that's happening here, soon in the house and it will affect many different things, that's a lot of different things a lot of different sectors that will affect and like depending on the repubbacan and who will We can get to the most mandat in Senate and Congress. Many incitament that can disappear or adder for different sectors. So it's perfect to have a market-konto that can handle billy in the USA without a savings.
4:19But come back, investing in your risk is not going to be able to get back your investeringskapital. Thank you.
4:54Inga förvärv, vad är planen? Jag satt och kollade när de skulle komma ut och det började klaren tio i London. Så skickade de ut ett pressbindelande och så var det liksom mål mot 2035. Man skulle växa som alla andra bolag. Ja, det var liksom inte mycket nytt. Det var långt fram. Så först köpte jag lite för jag tänkte att den hade gått så fruktansvärt dålig den här aktien för det var inga förväntningar. Så då gick den upp typ en halv procent. Jag tänkte att ja, men det är bra. Och sen började de liksom mata ner den. Så jag tog stoppen, plus minus noll. And then after 5-6 minutes Was the actual 7 ,5 % And it says a lot About sentiment About an action You can't have it before And you can't have it Openly there are many gamers That either have turned out Or blanked Or people who had said That this is
5:43Virtune AB:But they haven't had it No, it's about 10x winston And then the question Is this it that they plan out Now they have slated their pill or if it's going to come with new products and pipelines or if this is a super value trap for patenting for Semaglutid their stores, Sempic and Vigovie have forgotten to have been in if I understand it right, in Canada and some other jurisdictions so now I saw that Sandoz got married for Semaglutid in Canada and can you guess that it will be going to ship hundreds of miles with the border from Canada to the USA if you want to have a bill of semi-glutid. Man wasn't a köpsu, but you know more that something they need to do.
6:32They have a very new VD. Uppenbarligen didn't he did his job. They must have taken PR-consult, McKinsey-consult, all things. You present something and it goes down 7 ,5 % on 5 minutes. How do you feel?
6:47Virtune AB:It's what you wonder. Why do you have in a so-called market market, if you don't want to present anything? Nej. Mål 2025, yeah, okay. It's not to present anything. It's clear that you can't rush the affair, but I don't know how long and how many I've said this in the podcast, that you need to be a pipeline. Yeah, or Lilje, as we've said earlier, it's not that it takes time. It's not that it takes time. It takes time to Bygga en pipeline Och det är svårt AstraZeneca har gjort det här jobbet En gång i tiden Och nu bär de väl frukterna av det Men det tar ju tid Att bygga en pipeline Men jag tror att marknaden måste se Att det görs någonting Och inte bara snackas Det är klart att det kommer ju Han var intervjuad på Bloomberg TV I morse såg han en intervju Och det kändes lite som en fotbollstränare Som har torska fem raka matcher Han var väldigt defensiv men högg ändå tillbaka så då var de såhär, ja men du måste göra några förvärv och då var ju han, det här pillret då kom från någon snack, Emisware tror jag teknikbolaget hette så han påstår då att allting som de släpper nu framåt kommer från olika förvärv men de har gjort det extremt selektivt och antingen så kan man ju köpa jättemånga bolag i tidig fas eller som Viking då, ett bolag som har varit i framkant på piller Some still haven't really got any value Their value is 4 billion dollar So I don't know They went up 30-40 % Now when we play in On a so that you can take If I'm not sure, a pillar one time In a month It was different But a maintenance study That you don't need to take Sprut or tablet so often And Novo didn't see much on this Eli Lilly went down a little Marknaden is gigantic The price will come down And then it's just a question The customer will be very much And the person who is very good for the person It was a Harvard study About that you both got more job And more partners If you were single Had any Harvard research done If you were single?
9:02Yes, then you got a partner More faster than you were eating GLP-1 And you got more job So it looks like you're all All the sinnen in life
9:10Virtune AB:Okay, it's clear that life is better if you don't have a BMI. No, it's a way of knowing that it's not a hard time to wear. Exactly. But also health and sjukvård, and the cost of health and health. I mean, the fetmar-related sjukdom is a high part of the cost of the health of the health. Alltså on a state level. No, but exactly. So it's a lot of pain. And it will be very interesting, you have Pfizer, Astra, many have signed a deal with kinesis, they are doing well on GLP-1 preparatory. Ingen of them have been able to get the market, just now it's just just about L.I. Lilly and Novo. Sealand has a deal with Roche, Roche has come with some studies today that it feels like the market didn't really have to be in GLP-1.
9:59But it will be very interesting to see how the market looks out in five years. Will it still be Novo or L.I. Lilly or how do you want to be able to be able to get the market? It's like you have a own selling point On your preparatory It's like we've got the right to get to 30 % It's not that It's other things that go down here Then we have both Lenovo and Lilley
10:18Virtune AB:They have the advantage of that they should Bredda indikationer And it goes faster than to do from scratch All right, so it's going to be With the concurrents that come back And so, this is a lot of market With Vigovie, Sempic, Moniar And those Yeah, it's a value of it also That's true, I think. And there's no way to go out of it totally. For Elon Musk said that I'm going to Vigovic. For you say it, for it was the term for that you went to GP1. But all of them had a little preparatory. They called it Vigovic. Yeah, exactly. Then you have missed it on a certain way. It's a bit like that people say that they're googling, but they're actually looking for Yahoo.
10:54Virtune AB:Yeah, exactly. How many are looking for Yahoo? Exactly. Or Bing, or whatever. I think that Novo must just do it a little more they must just spread pipeline so that the market has something to hang up on their hands and what they have said earlier is that they should focus most on obesity and diabetes for that they are there they are and then it's like Zealand, Viking or those but I think that the market is better would rather see that they spread their new indikation it's true I also absolutely Sen kan ju det vara att de här begåver och semagrotid och sånt leder en in på andra saker. Ja, de plåder ju Alzheimer.
11:34Det verkar ju funka mot väldigt mycket.
11:36Virtune AB:Just det funkar ju inte, men ändå. Inte tillräckligt i alla fall. Nej, men det finns säkert massa andra saker. Och det är just där det kommer in att man breddar indikationerna. Så den ser ju inte dyr ut. Bolaget har ju bra kassa. Det är ju inte ett bolag i finansiell kris. Det är någon form av identitets - Nej, det här är ju verkligen Operationellt Det är ju Dukat bord De har ju hur mycket potential som helst Man har massa coola grejer Det är lite i krisen här De har ju yard Ett djur, en ren Då bytte de ju håll På renen och så tog de bort Nordisk Nu heter de Banovo Det känns som att de fokar lite på fel grejer Det är alldeles för mycket McKinsey consult in.
12:27Ja, det är fattat.
12:29Virtune AB:Men så, ja. Alltså, det är ju de... The world is yours. Det är bara att gå ut och göra grejer nu. Ja, och i Vikings fall då, varför jag uppmärksammade det här, var ju att igår så gick den upp 5%. Och då var det någon som tog ett jättestort optionsbet. Var det Barron? Trump? Eller vad är frågan om? Så då gick kursen 5 % efter det här. Man visste att data skulle komma ungefär den här veckan. Och sen var den upp mycket i förhanden. And then came the data up between 35 % and 50 % depending on when you looked. How did it look at your biotech-load? Have you any new cases? Or are you waiting on any data?
13:08Virtune AB:I looked a little on new cases. It's a little bit like it's a... How much do you want to allocate? So you can wait for a case that you can take home. Exactly. At least if you want to go to the app, it's 8 years. It's hard to get lost money. Exactly Now it's gone very well here And they'll come soon with more data So that's not so much No, Unicure I've mentioned that I think they'll come with data tomorrow Not sure, but I'm not sure that they'll come with tomorrow Okay Then it's four-year data Against Huntington's sjukdom Their previous data So very well out This has been the long following First they got no from FDA Sen fick jag sparken på FDA.
13:58Virtune AB:Och har blivit ersatt med mer... Godkänd, glada folk. Ja, men lite mer... Vad ska man kalla det? En pragmatisk ledning i FDA. Som faktiskt tittade på nyttan kontra riskerna. Och då reverserade man det så att de får skicka in sina ansökan. Och det är på treårsdatan de ska skicka in. Och imorgon kommer fyraårsdata. It's not what they send in for good-women But it's still very interesting It's a huge disease There are no drugs in There are no treatment There are no treatment
14:38Virtune AB:It's a rare disease But it's still a huge It's still a huge It's still a huge gene So it's really exciting And just in Unicures They have an innovative solution and the way they deliver this is a operation that they do so it can even be I'm looking at that they can be a platform company all the way they deliver all the dream of becoming a platform exactly they have a virus that they program that they send in that they mutate the gene that produces the protein that we call Huntington's disease. So it's a spain that's in your own time. Absolutely. Have you anything else? Biotech, anything new company you've got in?
15:32Or should we go on?
15:34Virtune AB:Just now I'm waiting on that Abcellra will come with data, Unicure will come with data when it's possible. They have said, why I'm not mistaken at it in the morning, because they're going to 24 September for the year. And they have said that they're going to slay 4-year-old data before Q3 is done So it's just 8 days So it's just when it's You have been chatting with your agent When it comes to data Then you say it's what you want I don't know if it's possible I don't know if it's just before I don't know if it's just before In the 30th of September Thank Logiskt tänkande Jaha Meta då They left the agent Muse Which is probably for private people A little more variant I think it was the one I had to say on Twitter That had gotten a agent and he had signed up for football training and all of them all of them have their own agent who just sits and works for themselves and that people are not really with what will happen next year if all of them have their own agent they can work during the day what is your feeling?
16:40or why did you meet up 11 % for that they slipper a agent?
16:43Virtune AB:it's because this is a so-called agent that is perfect for a man like us We don't need to solve any math problems That we don't have to solve it We don't need to solve it We don't need to fix everything All day Just go through all school It takes two hours It would be good if we could A man needs a assistant And this will be Framförallt the version Of the Glimmer It's on device Edge computing When you ask them about a recipe So it doesn't have a 3.000 tokens Exactly, it doesn't have a data center Up in the mold It happens On your phone You can do it And then it comes to a answer And that's very interesting Because you're on tokens And it's going to be was more than a take-up.
17:51Virtune AB:It was just no weird thing. Distribution. It looks like that models are going to be commoditized. There are a lot of good models there. And for the most of the most of the time that a man needs to be able to help so it's a lot of them. You don't have the last one. And this one was on App Store. It was much data about that it was much faster than ChatGPT, the number of users and how fast it had been. Yes, exactly. And Meta has a fantastic distribution platform. And Meta is also there. And Apple has no own now. But they also have a half of the world in the world. How we even know the models. In the world in the world.
18:39Virtune AB:Yes. And Meta is one of the highest open AI. Three years ago or two years ago. Yes, exactly. It was a bit of a from Google. What is the model here? How do Meta get to these money? They just want to have a full use of the money. I think it's a direct announcement. When you ask them, where do I buy this?
19:06Virtune AB:It's interesting because it starts to become... I don't know what episode is, but this was probably two years ago. Framtiden för AI Vi har sagt det flera gånger i podden Så hur kommer internet se ut I framtiden Kommer vi bara ha en assistent I telefonen och vi säger vad vi vill Och den plockar fram Den går ut och fetchar ett hotell På Hotels.com Vi går inte in där längre Och alla blir dataleverantörer in i de här modellerna Och då är det de som sitter på mest data Booking.com, Hotels och dem De kommer finnas kvar och levererar De här stora modellerna And then Intel, Apple, AMD, ARM, all of them were very much.
19:48Virtune AB:They were not GPUs, but Nvidia. For Nvidia, they're just like a mobile and data center. But if this is new, that Apple and Meta have these here, which are on-device agents that work. They need a better hardware. They need more hardware. Then it comes a upgrade cycle. That you have new laptops, with chips that can help it. And also telephone. So it will be a cycle of hard work. And it can be seen already on Apple. They came with their new stuff here for a week ago. They came with their phone with their own. Which I thought was cool. For over. 30 likes. What's that? Exactly, what's that? till. Det är väldigt spännande för de här bolagen, om det kommer en hårdvaruuppgraderingscykel.
20:45Virtune AB:Framförallt för Apple, man har ju tänkt att när det kommer en AI-telefon så ska alla uppgradera. Nu börjar det väl... Den har ju inte kommit än. Nej, den har inte kommit än, men nu när du ser att Meta kommer med det här och sånt, nu börjar det ju faktiskt komma. Tidigare i år så nämnde vi att Edge Computing, jag var ju långt all-com på det här, på temat. Men nu verkar det som att nu kommer det ju. I och med att Meta släppte den här Muse. Så det är superspännande. Och en ny vinkel i AI-race. Ja, och lite på förra veckans tema. Helt plötsligt är Meta i fokus. Det blir väldigt intressant de här IPO-erna.
21:22Virtune AB:Ja, och det har ju blivit så att man måste titta på den hyperscalen som de kallas då. Som liksom har fallit i glömska. Meta låg väl lite. Det var ingen som pratade om dem för en vecka sedan. På AI-temat riktigt. They're not hot in town, now they're it And for two years ago, it was Google Then they didn't Google anymore Then they were Gemini And then it was here in the year So all of them would hold on with Gemini And now it's been very soft about Gemini So next That's coming with a Jet-updating is Gemini Now they also have local Models And their own GPU chips They call them for TPU But Google They've got a update on Gemini That was not so good All these companies When they have missed a new update Or a new update They've got a new update And then comes a hop I can't say it But Google is next to the tour At come with something And even Apple There it's just But the new VD is a hard-to-kill I skillnad från Tim Cook Som var en fantastisk vd Och gjort det fantastiskt Och hållit på med mjukvara Och byggt ekosystemet Måste man ju säga att han gjorde Och förvaltade allting Men nu är vi inne i ett hårdvarurejs Där det är nästa utveckling Av hur kommer framtidens hårdvara Se ut och vad Då är det ju perfekt att de tog en hårdvarukille Ja och där köpte ju OpenAI upp Ett, och det var en Jonathan Ivys Bolag som Flat Capital ägde so they should have a A and there is no with a screen but it's something you talk about it's very interesting Alexa or something Siri I hope it's something better it's very interesting what about 2-3 years how the future of the world looks like have you ever had I've had a Google Home I like it what do you do with it it's mostly when you have small children set on dirty music Exactly Yeah, but then you can say Peppa Pig Marsha and Bjorn on Netflix Or just to ask Do you have it in the TV?
23:40Virtune AB:I have it in the kitchen so I can ask you things When I'm still making a lot of food What's the rabbit seller? Yeah, exactly That can I actually ask you I think it's top But it's been a long time It's a old product But the new ones When it's really AI Then it's really interesting Allmänt, so I said I handlade olie-actier Olie has gone very well It has been diesel-brist They have sprunged a pipeline in Saudi And today has been put out the last days And a little fred Between Iran and Russia It has been a lot of signals From the pipelines that are coming in Exactly And Irans president Ska åka till FN's meeting today Then they might meet And they hold on to nek They have sent new bud Trump, now they would have to stain down all the iransk banks and flygbolag, it goes a little back but oil was a little on the way Iran was out today and said that they had to send a forslag 16 September already that they can discuss and that they could open Hormuz under 7 days and that they were willing to have a meeting via medlar in New York so all that there is negative for oil prices so clearly on a short way And a little bit of what we talked about That oil-actional, they're talking about That oil doesn't stay in 100 dollars Super long Now it's been the long Oil-terminal has begun to Klate up a little And still doesn't go the oil-actional So it's not a game here I mean I think Absolutely, Iran is willing to Prata in New York, it's important So of course But it's important to be Xi-och-Tramps-möte.
25:27Virtune AB:För Kina är ju den stora marginalköparen i världen. De styr ju priset. Av olja? Ja. Av allt, tror jag skulle säga. Ja, det också. Men framförallt oljepriset. De är ju marginalköparen i oljemarknaden. Så om de väljer att nu ska vi spara på olja och skära ner på våra inköp och nu får vi tajta till och så fabrikörer vi till bensinmackorna och de är ju ett sånt samhälle där man kan bestämma sig för det en månad. Då syns det oljepriset direkt. Då ska de gå in och köpa. då går oljepriset upp. Men när Trump och Kina, alltså USA och Kina möts torsdag va? Och ska prata det enda jag kan se är liksom världens två största ekonomier och största länder vill båda ha ner oljepriset.
26:10Virtune AB:Det enda är att USA vill ju squeeza Kina och det är ju för att Kina inte har så bra tillgång till olja medan USA är självförsörjande. Men det där går ju both ways. Kina som marginalköpare Kan ju också Squeezes tillbaka genom att inte slå av På takten på att köpa Då blir det dyrt vid pumpen För amerikanerna och så blir det dåligt för Trump I mellanårsvalet etc Då är ju frågan, vad vill Kina? Vill de att Trump ska ha ett dåligt val? Eller tror de att det är lättare att diskutera Med demokraterna? Den allmänna uppfattningen är väl att man tror Att Kina tycker det Men samtidigt, jag vet inte, Biden var jävligt hård mot Kina media täckte inte lika mycket men när Biden tog över från Trump så fortsatte ju att höja tullar och vara hård och var inte lika öppen för att diskutera och förhandla så jag är inte säker på vad Kina vill där liksom men så att Iran vill prata absolut men Iran har också en a what's it a a and it is Kina who should be for you saw right that hot rebeller the week were on the Kina had said to Iran to to hot rebeller to lugna ner and they said in their front to Saudi for they have also left rövare and those who don't just want to do do anything in oil or do Kortsiktigt skulle den ha till långa oljan För alla incitament är att den ska ner Och det märkte man ju Att börsen reagerar extremt starkt Nu har vi ju gått nästan 5 % här på typ En vecka Så det ligger något i Det känns som att kurserna går före Någon form av stor nyhet här som inte har kommit än Dels det Och AI har varit steket Du har ju flera andra saker Du har ju peggat upp här Väldigt bra i en formella norsvalet För att få till en ordentlig squeeze i marknaden It's my prophecy on four weeks' time.
28:20Virtune AB:That the budget can go well. Even if it's not going to be a good deal. I don't want to cut it out. It's not like you. We know that President Trump is very good. The administration in the Vita House is very good. They are very good at timing right when they want to put on the budget. So now we have a kvartals in the back of the budget. It was on Friday. now you have a meeting with Xi and Trump it's always a little bit of hope it's not a way to short and then they come a kumbaya moment and then you sit there and look at or sit there short when everything flyer it's not a bit of a bit of a on it so are it Besents to buy long rent for that to get rid of for that to get rid of rent they are on the store quite small so Bazookan from Treasury and Besents have we not seen in the market anymore the coming of Räntan har börjat komma ner lite nu Efter Fed-mötet och lite olja Precis, och där är ju Besant som en gammal trader Man går inte emot en rörelse När räntorna skenar, han gjorde det lite grann Men skulle han få momentum med sig Räntorna ner, jag tror att det är då När du ser att När de har börjat Rullat över och räntorna börjar Toppa ur, det är då han kan komma med sin bazooka För att ge lite extra skjuts Och så görs det här i samband med kvartalsskiftesflöden som kommer och så får du då momentum då sätter du börsen på styrfart in i oktober och in mot mellanårsvalet det var lite såhär de gjorde i mars de började prata om någon vapenvila med Iran och så satte de fart på börsen och det kom väldigt väl tajmat efter marslösen in i kvartalsskiftet och då får du liksom ett flöde med dig och så först squeezear du blankarna och sen får du ännu mer flöden So it's a double effect on the upside.
30:14Why are I a little...
30:16Virtune AB:Yeah, I see... It's a lot that's a dour there. And the AI-requip with their finance. And we have OpenAI, their negative cash flow. Reuters wrote about it for the week. It was 270 billion dollars per year. Fram till 2030. That would they have to have... To have a higher value. So it's a lot of... A lot of things that... That's not a risk of luck. With AI-bygget. and all that korsahegrande and all that but I don't want to fight to buy the house ne had I wanted to make up what I think they want they want to make up oil make up a rate and make up in the middle of the election then I would have done it so that I had done it and I think they will do it and something else that also is on a high risk it is crypto it seems like no matter what it comes for new features so it will be crypto continue and there it also seems It was also like, before I thought I was a bit tired, then I was a risk-on-gain, then I was a new one.
Read the full transcript
31:16Then I was a crypto, it's been a crypto that goes bananas every day. Now I've gone well, then I'm a crypto. So it's like it's a risk-on-newity here that the market is going to be on.
31:32Virtune AB:Yeah, and then Trump is very pressed in the middle of the election. It's not good. So what he wants to do is he gets to Xi. What he wanted to love to say in six weeks so that it would be better. He didn't want to hold it. But it's what I mean. We talked a little about kinesis akties before we came in. Alibaba släppte någon agent i Sverige idag. De har handlats i superlåg värdering i alla kinesiska bolag. Kolla deras multiple mot våra västerländska AI-bolag. It's a skämt. And then we have many interna kunder. There are a billion there. and what they mean they are well in different models the kinesis say you as a KTH-processor yeah they have done it the Gwen they have also and worked with so it's there I'm sure it's clear that it's not the meeting is not easy and Kina 9-10 it's always anti-climax that the price of the price goes up in a far and then it will be nothing.
32:35Virtune AB:So it will be. And that it will be a half-life-newity. And we have come up with that we will talk about it. But I don't know, the market might not be able to do so much more than so. No, really not. And are there any other companies you have followed here under the week? It was the edge computing with Apple and so on. Annars have I just not have a day trade index. and it has gone well you can go to when it goes a little too long and then so if it becomes so like that oil comes down rents comes down inflation if oil goes down inflation goes down can you buy a fastness yes but small so until valet if they do it that oil goes down inflation goes down and the When the price goes down, then you can get a small company.
33:32If you look at index, it's super strong. But small company has been tough. It's still a better at the end. But I saw some US-small company for a week later. It was like a single day every day. Two weeks. Look at Russell's.
33:46Virtune AB:It's a fair deal. It can actually be something to take. If you want to play on that Trump will pump and carry out a lawsuit in for the middle of the election. And what are the most part with twilight? Well all the small Mac Sí With the And then we have a called Some plans
34:12No
34:12Virtune AB:No I think they want to Going to go Rwyんだ OK All right Orchester Orchester It's That's what happens That'sivamente Yeah What is it for political incitament to do that? Especially if it goes bad for Trump in the election. He has given 5 000 to all who voted for him. Exactly. I think it's a gap here that's going to be spain. Yeah. I've noticed it's been a better and handled a lot of new news now when it's done in Sweden. So it can be a tip. And then a little bit of Severs from longsidan. All that is in a group If the market has gone well in the USA Then it goes Sivers good You don't need to be able to do it All the company is in a group I was in Octave and then it's SaaS It's very core-styrd One thing I think is That in this In this So has VIX-en not come down Alltså VIX-en It's a big deal It's a big deal It's a very bad thing.
35:24Virtune AB:When Nasdaq and AI-bolagen go up, but VIX doesn't go down, it can show that options markets are still nervous. Even if I sit here and say I've seen a scenario for how I've pumped the budget in the election, but it's a risk. It's always. As I go, Nasdaq goes on 3%, but VIX but volatility ticker up it's not it's not it's not it's not and then we have the fill or kill I will say that it is USA-handel it's where it comes new things for example Viking with more where it comes something it's a lot and it's still there are great and it's that you can with With small children, it's hard to sit. It opens at half four and then it's time to sit at night.
36:26It's not the optimal time to sit and handle.
36:30Virtune AB:Min killa is what you mentioned, that everything is so in group. All that's happening. That she and Trump, if they have a meeting, will they come to break or will they come to a group hug? It's like... It's my kill. Alltså det är sånt här man måste sitta och följa Och det påverkar Alltså politiken har fått så himla stor inverkan Det är väl din dröm Vi andra som vill handla nyheter och bolag Ja men det blir ju väldigt, väldigt riskabelt Ja Alltså nu är det liksom Det är Treasury som bestämmer Det är inte Fed längre Märkte vi också Fed höjde räntan förra veckan Påverkar inte marknaden Nej Särskilt mycket alls Utan det är ju Treasury och Besant som bestämmer Och det är väl det som är fillen Att man har kommit underfund med det Centralbankerna Sitter faktiskt i baksätet nu Och det är liksom Finanspolitiken Som är Som styr ekonomin Just Och det är väl bra, med den insikten så kan man ju Se, då ser man saker På ett annat sätt Och nu får man ju lyssna kvar, för nu kom ju intervjun Med vdn och medgrundaren Kristoffer från Virtune
37:50Today we are going to crypto-special. We are with Christopher Cox, the CEO and the CEO of Virtune. Welcome to PhilorKillPod. Thank you very much. It's been a better place in crypto-world. Can you tell us what has happened here in the past? Absolutely. It's a little more exciting industry to work in than it was for a half months ago. And you can start with that we've had a pretty long-term Bjarne-marknad that started in October in June And short before that had Bitcoin in September Nåed at record-level on around 125 000 dollars And then we had a big shift in the market In August, where Bitcoin steg with about 25 % And then it continued up in September Where Bitcoin per year-varande handlas For about 86 000 dollars But we have about 50 % left before we're back to the previous all-time high.
38:50There are several factors that have driven this up. Dels can you constate that if you look at what has happened on a fundamental plan in crypto-based under 2026, then there have been many positive things that crypto has been answered very positive on. We've had banks like Stanley, which is a real ETF. Charles Schwab, which is like Avanza, but in the USA, with 12 billion dollars on their platform, which is a spot-handel and very much more. We think that price has laid fundamental to it, until we saw in August when Bitcoin had the powerful up-to-back. It has been several factors that have driven it, but it was the catalyst just then, when Scott Besant said, We've also had a lot of short positions in the crypto market that have been sped on the rally the last few weeks.
39:51Cool. What can you say about us as Virtune? What have you been doing for the last half of the year? We continue to work with new products and we have today 23 products available in the Swedish market. The last product we will be able to do is Hyperliquid, which is a very interesting case and also a strong release of our products under 2026. If you look at the development of our part, we are glad to see a future of the svensk investor where we have seen inflöden in our products every month through the year. trots att det har varit en motståndskraftig marknadsutveckling hittills i år fram tills nyligen.
40:37Och de produkter där vi har sett mest inflöden har faktiskt varit XRP som nummer ett, fullt av Bitcoin och därefter Solana. Så det har varit de produkter som svensk investerare har handlat mest bland vårt utbud. Och kan man se, är det liksom under en månad eller skiftar från dag till dag eller hur ser handeln ut då ser det i de olika produkterna? Often we say that when it's volatile in the market it's what drives the market. So often we see a lot of volumes but also a lot of inflated when it's happening in the market. That's what led to high volatility. In the months, as we have had under the summer months now, but in a very sidetrackable market.
41:20Then it means that the market goes down. of so much. And so it's special both on the market and what we talk about in the podcast that when it's low price it's when you're going to pay for a month or buy a little bit and then you're going to and then you're going to go up 25 % and then you're going to get into the market Yeah, exactly. On both the good and the good so can say that Bitcoins best channel is its development. So that Bitcoin has a tendency to see how it's going to be as now so can be Media skriver om det i allt större utsträckning och fler börjar prata om bitcoin och det brukar ofta leda till att fler bestämmer sig för att investera i bitcoin helt klart.
42:01Och ni finns ju på flera marknader, vad kan man säga om intresset i de andra länderna utöver Sverige för både krypto och bitcoin? Nej men det är ju en bra fråga och tittar man i Norden så har vi våra produkter även listade på Nasdaq Helsinki utöver Stockholmsbörsen. I dagsläget har vi 90 % marknadsandel i Norden på Nasdaq-börserna för den här typen av produkter. Så vi ser ett starkt brett förtroende för vårt produktutbud. Sen ser vi däremot att intresset faktiskt kan skilja sig mellan olika marknader. Exempelvis i Tyskland kan man konstatera att intresset är mycket mer konstaterat till i synnerhet Bitcoin men också Ethereum.
42:43while in the Swedish market can we definitely see that it's a bigger interest to invest in so-called altcoins all of the crypto-to-to-goes, which is bortom bitcoin and Ethereum, which are the two biggest.
42:57Virtune AB:If we look at bitcoin, it's the evils bitcoin against gold, for example, how do you see the investors on bitcoin? What do they do for a sort of to-goes? Is it an inflation hedge? Is it a risk-on-to-goes? So it's pretty interesting. You are meeting investors all the time. Absolutely. And I would say that there are two sides on my side. It's quite a lot of people who see it as a risk-on-to-end and maybe with a tech-actie where they expect high volatility and high potential. But what we see, and it's something we've been out and built in the Swedish market now in three and a half years, is that Bitcoin should work as a store of value or the digital gold.
43:44And there we see a more consensus that it actually is Bitcoins egen in particular. And it can also see if you see how Bitcoin has precepted with example S &P 500 and gold 60 days after the other geopolitical happens. If we take the start of Iran and the USA-krig in the 28th of February of the year or Covid-kris, we see that Bitcoin actually have been able to work as a store of value during many of these cases. I think in synnerhet now, all that has been in August on a macro level, so it's all more about the basement trade, with the oro for the stigable rate, inflation, for the lower dollar, and it makes also Bitcoin more relevant in this case.
44:31Virtune AB:Exactly, it was my take that I had span up on. Just when Bessent started to buy back obligation, The basement trade, that dollar Ska ner, men samtidigt kanske Ska hålla räntorna Artificiellt låga Då såg man ju Bitcoin kicka igång Ordentligt, så det var ju verkligen En sån signal att Bitcoin har blivit en macro trade Det var så jag såg på det i alla fall Ja men verkligen För det skedde så i en synk Så det var ju verkligen Ett makroflöde som kom in Verkligen, jag håller med Och det var ju det som var den stora katalysatorn But you also have Bitcoin COVID often waveform performed very well when you get into annual Libris manter.
45:12For the week were it two negative legisbres who come out these days after each other. Claritect?'s one was amerikan히 over any food lump which established a hope that AWS players had found out for him for a long time. Then we got its nectar phase the day that, And trots this so we saw that Bitcoin after these two negative changes was very well with a strong impact on the next day. So it also shows that in a certain way, when we talk about these four-year cycles and that Bitcoin has been in a bianomarknad, that much indicates that we have formed a botten but in combination with the economic for-and-and-a-can-for-be-gynnsam for Bitcoin on the coming time.
45:57And if you're interested in crypto, what do you think you want to look for for the triggers or for the coming six months? What will be important? I would say that on a macro level, if we have more worry about the world with what happened with Ukraine and Russia and the Mellanöstern, then it can be of course, and even if Bitcoin is able to be a store of value, it's still a chance to be able to move on to a short-sighted, as risk-on-till-gång, so that's a factor. And then we have of course the end of the end of October. But if you look at crypto - so I think that the most interesting thing that happens now is the hastighet we see that banks, banks and other forms of financial institutions in the world are going to integrate and use of blockbuster-technic in different ways.
46:49And there is the big trend, it's what we call tokenization. Alltså att man skapar en token som exempelvis representerar en aktie eller en statsobligation eller andra former av värdepapper. Och där ser vi att det sker en enormt, väldigt snabb utveckling just nu med att Nasdaq New York ska lansera 23.5-handel. Vi har New York Stock Exchange som har ett liknande projekt. Och det här kanske inte är direkt knutet till Bitcoin men utan mer knutet till andra kryptotillgångar som exempelvis Ethereum. which works as a form of infrastructure for the development of tokenization.
47:26Virtune AB:Exactly, and it was for the last week. Five years ago that you have to offer tokenized stocks. They were just there. Precis. And many of these tokenized stocks are Ethereum-based, which are the ones that drive in the ground. Yes, Ethereum has over 50 % of the market. Both in stable coins, which are tokenized, in particular dollars, but also tokenized value of paper. and it was a part of what many hoped about with Clarity Act but there came both the US SECs which is the US for the US but also CFTC which is the US for commodities and said that you should create a new rule on your own hand now on Clarity Act has become a new rule that they have already begun that has also created a positive wind the last week and what can you say Are there any more altcoins that have a great interest or that has been given to the last time?
48:23Absolutely. Two other spännable. The first is Arbitrum. It is so that Robinhood in the USA, I think they have 25-30 million kunder. It's probably many listeners who have the actuality. They launched what they call Robinhood chain the 1st of July, if I minst correctly. And it can be seen that the volume has stigged very quickly. A little bit of interest is that it has shown that it has been most of the volume It's been so called meme coins and not tokenized. But it's a different discussion. And this is the end of the arbitrum. Which is the technique that Robinhoods own blockchain. So that arbitrum has set a pretty strong time to the last time.
49:20And it's still a very little bit of a market cap. About 1 ,5 billion dollars. And that's also connected with high volatility. Another case is Chainlink. Chainlink has also gone relatively stark the last time. And the reason why Chainlink has more and more attention is because Chainlink plays a central role when it comes to tokenization of the market. The chain link is that they have two main use of the first one. The first one is their Oracle-tjänster, which is the way to use a blockbuster to get in the external information. For example Coinbase, for example, tokeniserated aktiehandel. For the real tokeniserated akties, for example, Nasdaq New York, So they use Chainlink's Oracle-tjänster for that.
50:17But then also what they call CCIP. Which allows you to fly a tokeniserable to get between different blocks. Exempelvis. And there came to be a Citibank with a very offensive prognosis. That they think that the tokeniserable market will reach 5 ,5 billion dollars to 2030. And in that they think Chainlink will play a role. and had a prognosis, if I minst right, that Chainlink can get the whole$200 to 2030. And today, around$15. That's pretty aggressive. And if you want to talk more about your products, what would you say about them from other products on the market? I'll just say that I'll just say that.
51:03It's about$13.
51:06Virtune AB:So it's even more aggressive. Yeah, exactly. Precis, precis. Det som är viktigt att känna till med Virtuels produkter det är att våra produkter alltid är vad man kallar 100 % fysiskt backade. Och det kan ju låta lite diffus för man kan ju inte hålla fysiskt i en bitcoin exempelvis. Men vad det innebär är att köper någon av våra bitcoinprodukter exempelvis för 100 000 kronor då kommer vi alltid förvara motsvarande värde i faktiska bitcoins. Där dessa tillgångar förvaras separat hos vårt förvaringsinstitut Coinbase. and where the price is always knitted 1-1 to these products. If you look at more alternative than the Swedish market then it's instead of synthetic products when you have to get into the emittent's hedge and payback.
51:52We have chosen this structure for the investors to feel free to invest in our products long-sist. As last, is it another old coin or sparing you want to give to the listeners? What do you think they should be able to talk about? Yeah, but a good question. I would say that it's a lot that happens in crypto markets. Hyperliquid is a whole case that you can talk about hours. Bitcoin is a case that is a store of value. Then we have Ethereum's role in tokenization. And we have other other available available for example stablecoins. So it's many, many different places to hold on. so it also requires quite a bit time to stay up to date in everything that happens in crypto.
52:40So what I can say is that one way to exponents is that if you think about crypto, in the future of the financial markets, is to buy an index product where you can get a breadth of exponents in the same product. And there are our virtual crypto top 10 index, where you get exponents in the 10 biggest products that are balanced every month, so that it will be up to date with how the market develops and holds the relevant crypto-to-goes in the case with the market. Smart! We hope that we have you back here and that it is still here for crypto-to-time. Thanks so much!
53:24And then you can contact us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Philochillpod, Netgyme.com And so we thank Finvare Media And our our clip And then we have an egan disclaimer And I don't know Nothing of what we have I've talked about today
53:43Virtune AB:I've got Unicure and App Cellera And I think it was them we mentioned And they're going to do it Yes, over and out But come on, all we talked about Here is Phil and Kill Our own thoughts And it's going to be a underhållning And inspiration It's absolutely not financial aid.
