Rand Hindi - CEO at Zama - Privacy, front running & programming compliance
In this episode of CopperCasts, we’re joined by Rand Hindi, CEO and co-founder of Zama, to discuss why privacy has become the missing layer of public blockchain infrastructure. As institutions increasingly look to deploy real financial activity on Ethereum and other public networks, confidentiality around balances, trades, and execution is no longer optional — it’s foundational.
We explore Zama’s approach to confidential computation on public blockchains, why it chose not to build another layer one, and what this unlocks for stablecoins, DeFi market structure, and institutional adoption. A forward-looking conversation on how privacy, composability, and shared state may finally converge to make public blockchains usable at scale.

Eric Saraniecki - Co-Founder at Digital Asset - Composability and Decentralized Pragmatism
In this episode of CopperCasts, we’re joined by Eric Saraniecki, Co-Founder of Digital Asset and a core architect behind the Canton Network. Explore the rapidly shifting landscape of institutional blockchain adoption, with a spotlight on Canton’s unique approach to interoperability, privacy, and scalable composability across financial markets. This conversation comes at a pivotal moment, as regulators, banks, and market infrastructures begin deploying real-world assets and high-value financial workflows onto blockchain rails.
This episode unpacks why Canton believes the long-term destination for finance is public, not private, networks and why data privacy, deterministic settlement, and sovereign control are essential for institutions to operate on-chain. We dive into the shortcomings of legacy enterprise blockchains, the limits of L2s and siloed subnets, and how Canton enables cross-application composability without compromising governance or regulatory requirements.
The conversation also explores tokenized treasuries, institutional stablecoin usage, the rise of privacy-native DeFi applications, and the incentive design behind Canton Coin. A forward-looking discussion on what’s next for tokenization, how network effects are forming around Canton, and how a new financial architecture may emerge that operates as seamlessly and openly as the internet itself.

Anestis Arampatzis - Co-Head at Centaur Markets - Volatility, liquidity and the new crypto regime-Ep064
In this episode of CopperCasts, we’re joined by Anestis Arampatzis, Co-Head of Centaur Markets, the crypto structured-products and derivatives desk within DV Trading. Explore the rapidly evolving landscape of digital asset markets, with a spotlight on volatility, options, and how institutional desks are navigating a new market regime. This conversation comes just as Bitcoin slipped below 100k amid widespread deleveraging and shifting liquidity dynamics across both crypto-native and TradFi venues.
The episode unpacks the drivers behind the recent selloff, the impact of ETFs on volatility and price discovery, and why Bitcoin has quietly become the global weekend macro hedge. We also dig into execution, stablecoins, tokenised money-market collateral, and what truly differentiates institutional risk management from retail.
The discussion then moves into the future of market structure—derivatives adoption, the role of offshore liquidity, tokenisation, and emerging inefficiencies across altcoin options and funding markets. A forward-looking view on where institutional crypto trading is heading, and how volatility, models, and behaviour are evolving across the digital asset ecosystem.
