Crypto Still Lacks A Valuation Framework

March 27, 2026·34 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Crypto may be nearing a critical inflection point, but one foundational problem still lacks consensus: how do you actually value a blockchain network? We sit down live from the Digital Asset Summit in New York to unpack crypto valuations through institutional and market structure lenses. We explore cash flow vs. scarcity, network effects, revenue limitations, market share dynamics, and why a shared valuation framework may be the final hurdle for crypto maturity. Enjoy!
