	Description:		Charles Schwab is opening spot Bitcoin and Ethereum trading to its 35 million clients and $12 trillion in assets. The crypto world is celebrating. But what does it actually mean when the largest traditional brokerage in America finally shows up? In this episode, Chip Mahoney breaks down why Schwab's move is the most important confirmation signal in crypto — and simultaneously the clearest sign that the early alignment window at the infrastructure layer has already closed. We cover what layer zero actually means, how the value capture pattern repeats across every financial transition, and what's forming right now at the infrastructure layer before it becomes a Schwab product in 2028. If you're watching Bitcoin through a brokerage account, you're watching the wrong layer.
