In the weekly roundup episode of Blockworks’ podcast “On the Margin,” Michael Ippolito, co-founder, sits down with Senior Editor Tyler Neville to talk about the news in macro, including the disappointing US jobs report and the market’s reaction to it.

In the month of May, the US added 559,000 jobs compared to expectations of 650,000. The funny thing? Stocks traded up. Find out what they had to say about the trend.

They also cover the Fed’s unwinding of its corporate bond purchases and the possibility of tapering, investor activism in Exxon, and a Bloomberg article on inequality between baby boomers, Gen Xers and millennials.

“On the Margin” is a two-part show. Once a week, Mike interviews industry experts, and then at the end of the week he is joined by co-host Tyler Neville where they break down the top crypto and macro stories. Episodes go live every Wednesday and Saturday morning.

Rollups are diverging from Ethereum’s original security model as users favor native issuance and third-party bridges. Sovereign rollups push this further, acting more like L1s with full autonomy. The result: a fragmented trust landscape where security, performance, and sovereignty are being rebalanced.
