In this episode I look at the new Orange DID service by Microstrategy, and then talk about DID in general along with IQ.wiki and AI-driven IQGPT.

Episode 514 - Orange ID's and Other Crypto Stuff

In this episode I speak about how tech innovation always starts with fun, much like the fart noise pages when the internet started.  Then I go into memecoins on Degen chain and poke around things there.

Episode 513 - Poking around FarCards, memecoins, and Degen chain

In this episode 512 I spoke with Chris Eberle (DeFiGinger) on the current state of web3/crypto. We initiated the interview as a way to test multiple livestreams on Twitter, YouTube, and Unlonely.app, but it serendipitously turned into a great interview.

You can find Chris on his podcast through Crypto Sapiens at cryptosapiens.xyz

Episode 512 - Are We There Yet? DeFiGinger speaks on the state of Web3

In this episode I am checking in on some projects I have been working on.  One of the things I emphasize this week is how web3 content creation apps are bringing out the weirdness in the same way that public television and UHF did in the 80's and 90's. 

Episode 511 - Anything goes. Bring out the weirdness. A New Era of UHF

In this episode I make my debut as an onchain and open source podcaster using a combination of vdo.ninja, OBS, Unlonely.app (using livepeer) and Hypersub. I will be minting these on Zora as well. Let's see how this experiment works!

Episode 510 - Changing my podcasting model to OnChain

In this episode I bring back Mike Money on the show since his last appearance 2.5 years ago on episode 201.

We speak about the evolution of meme coins into "culture coins". These projects have transcended memes and now have cultural utility and social impact. Mike is a part of the funny, or vulgar, depending on your perspective BAWLS ONU culture coin community built in the Avalanche blockchain ecosystem.

On the surface level, BAWLS ONU is about as mature as a middle school football team, but underneath the hood, BAWLS is building a community for fun, for memes, for gaming, and for social impact into men's health.

Episode 509 - The Evolution of Meme Coins into Social Impact

In this episode I speak with Devin Sawyer, one of the SciFi comic book series LegendsOfCypher.io.  After a couple of decades in the banking industry, Devin went down the web3 rabbithole and found a world of opportunity to combine his passion for technology with his passion for SciFi and comics with a community of other web3 driven folks he met in a DAO.  

The SciFi project Legends of Cypher creates a universe where Humanity faces a choice: a future where they are free to choose their own path — for good or ill — or the Centopoly, which offers its vision of peace and prosperity through the Metric.  This is a modern play on the classic never-ending struggle between predestination and free-will.  

This project is a culmination of two years of a collaboration between Devin, Crayons, and other web3 and SciFi dystopia enthusiasts who started with an idea and met consistently to build on this idea.  It is now taking off into some amazing finished products with lots more coming.  

You can participate and support this project by going to LegendsOfCypher.io and buying the comic books with traditional fiat money, or by buying the NFT which are a passport into the products and also in to many other perks now and into the future. 

You can find the project on X (Twitter) at: @LegendsOfCypher

Episode 508 - Cyphers vs The Centopoly - Freewill vs Predestination

Good morning! Warning! This episode is pretty much a lLongwinded rant & ramble about the haters of the bDAO Arbitrum Proposal. I basically made this episode to help defend my BanklessDAO community against the hordes of numbskull crypto twitter haters who are criticizing the proposal some members of BanklessDAO made to the Arbitrum DAO. Artibutrum can either approve, deny, or approve with revisions. But that is their choice. Everything else is just noise. I am sure even some folks at BanklessDAO will be politely asking me to shut up after this vid saying "Thanks, but no thanks!". Lol

Episode 507 - Longwinded rant & ramble about the haters of the bDAO Arbitrum Proposal

In this episode I interview Prince Jindal and Jung Won Kim, the Founders of Lantern Finance.  Lantern Finance seeks to create a place for the non-technical crypto-interested person to safely land in the crypto space and be able to enjoy things like staking ETH securely without risk of exchange implosion, or on the other side have to have a high degree of technical knowledge.  

We discuss lots of the basics like what the difference between custodial and non-custodial are, KYC and AML, and staking.  If you are new to crypto, this is a great episode for you!

Good morning!  I apologize in advance for the crappy quality and sound, but I am streaming from my hotel room in Houston.  In this episode I discuss digital ID's both centralized and decentralized.

Episode 505 - Live from my hotel talking about Decentralized Digital IDs

Take everything you think you know about crypto and poop it in the toilet. Shout
between the stalls to your neighbor to show your support for their struggle.
Light a match to cover up the Taco Bell token you bought earlier. Give a
congratulatory hoot when you flush and finish. This is my anti-professional
crypto channel. I‘m just a a barely sane dude who fell down the cryptocurrency
rabbit hole. This channel is my fumbling attempt to communicate myself outside
of my own head about my journey in the crypto space.
