The Eternal Optimist with Karl Floersch | Layer Zero
Karl Floersch is the co-founder of Optimism, the Ethereum rollup scaling solution, as well as one of the primary advocates in the space for public goods funding. <p>Through his prolific body of work—as well as a boundless well of optimism and energy—Karl is a core beating heart of Ethereum culture, as well as a schelling point for values and ethos across the ecosystem.</p> <p>We say it every episode: the code we write impacts the people who use it. Few embody this declaration more than Karl, whose deepest passion is building technological infrastructure to incentivize ethical behavior.</p> <p>We also explore the concept of ‘Ether’s Phoenix,’ a hypothetical being that rewards you for manifesting it—directly contrasting the concept of Roko’s Basilisk (research at your own risk). </p> <p>------<br /> 📣 OPOLIS | Sign Up to Get 1000 $WORK and 1000 $BANK<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Opolis">https://bankless.cc/Opolis</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/ </a> <br /> 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/</a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: </p> <p>⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALED ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a> </p> <p>❎ ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Across">https://bankless.cc/Across</a> </p> <p>🏦 ALTO IRA | TAX-FREE CRYPTO<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA">https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA</a> </p> <p>👻 AAVE V3 | LEND & BORROW CRYPTO<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/aave">https://bankless.cc/aave</a> </p> <p>⚡️ MAKER DAO | THE DAI STABLECOIN<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/MakerDAO">https://bankless.cc/MakerDAO</a> </p> <p>🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 5:00 Inspiration and Leaders<br /> 10:10 Road to Ethereum<br /> 16:13 For the Right Reasons<br /> 21:12 Embedding Values<br /> 28:35 The School of Fish<br /> 34:38 The Future Karl Sees<br /> 42:00 The Human Body Metaphor<br /> 47:44 The Decentralized Brain<br /> 52:25 Retroactive Public Goods Funding<br /> 57:14 Distributing Funds<br /> 1:01:08 Unprecedented Opportunity<br /> 1:04:59 R*ku’s B*silisk<br /> 1:08:39 Ether’s Phoenix (caw!)<br /> 1:15:40 A Just Utopia</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Karl Floersch:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/karl_dot_tech">https://twitter.com/karl_dot_tech</a> <br /> Optimism:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/optimismPBC">https://twitter.com/optimismPBC</a> <br /> Ether’s Phoenix:<br /> <a href= "https://medium.com/ethereum-optimism/ethers-phoenix-18fb7d7304bb">https://medium.com/ethereum-optimism/ethers-phoenix-18fb7d7304bb</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

116 - Why Bankless Is Wrong | Ethan Buchman - Cosmos

In addition, he is President of the Interchain Foundation.</p> <p>Today, he comes on Bankless to tell us why we’re wrong.</p> <p>This episode’s dialectic explores the fate of the blockchain ecosystem—will we have a multi-chain sprawl of different protocols, or will we see a few chains with a power law distribution?</p> <p>We dive into the value of monetary premium, set against the opposing side of monetary clearing and velocity.</p> <p>And what does this all mean for security?</p> <p>The ultimate answer we seek is how to avoid turning the world into a dystopia. On either side of the tyranny spectrum lies anarchy and autocracy, so perhaps the answer rests somewhere in the middle.</p> <p>------<br /> 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/ </a> <br /> 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "https://availableon.com/bankless">https://availableon.com/bankless</a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: </p> <p>⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALED ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a> </p> <p>❎ ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Across">https://bankless.cc/Across</a> </p> <p>🏦 ALTO IRA | TAX-FREE CRYPTO<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA">https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA</a> </p> <p>👻 AAVE V3 | LEND & BORROW CRYPTO<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/aave">https://bankless.cc/aave</a> </p> <p>⚡️ MAKER DAO | THE DAI STABLECOIN<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/MakerDAO">https://bankless.cc/MakerDAO</a> </p> <p>🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 An Internet Biophysicist<br /> 6:10 Why Is Bankless Wrong? <br /> 9:35 Network Topology<br /> 15:55 Co-op Full vs Bankless<br /> 23:06 Monetary Premium vs Clearing<br /> 33:25 Empires vs City-States<br /> 44:48 Discussing the EVM<br /> 51:59 The Role of Bitcoin<br /> 56:39 DeFi vs ReFi<br /> 1:00:49 Systems and Cycles<br /> 1:09:00 The Network Effect of Money<br /> 1:14:48 Mutual Exclusivity<br /> 1:19:34 Layer 2 vs Cosmos<br /> 1:26:38 Cooperative Democracies<br /> 1:32:31 Plutocracy<br /> 1:42:15 Chaos and Order<br /> 1:47:55 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Map of Zones<br /> <a href= "https://mapofzones.com/">https://mapofzones.com/</a> <br /> Debt: The First 5000 Years<br /> <a href= "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debt:_The_First_5000_Years">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debt:_The_First_5000_Years</a> <br /> Cosmos EVM<br /> <a href="https://evmos.org/">https://evmos.org/</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

The Explorer Mindset with Simona Pop | Layer Zero
<p class="p1">This episode takes place in the geographical heart of Layer Zero: the middle of DevConnect, the 2022 Amsterdam conference. With the backdrop of a lively conference center, <strong>Simona Pop</strong> explores heavy topics like the 1989 Romanian Revolution and the pitfalls of DAO governance.</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">When you cut off the head of top-down totalitarianism, you must replace it with something better—otherwise, another hydra head will appear.

FRAX & the 4pool Curve Takeover | Sam Kazemian
<p>Sam Kazemian is the founder of Frax, the fractional-algorithmic stablecoin protocol. After co-founding the decentralized Wikipedia startup Everipedia, Sam set out to pioneer the algorithmic stablecoin space. The FRAX stablecoin now has a market cap of over $2.6 billion, and the protocol’s FXS governance token is up 300% in the last year. </p> <p>In this episode, we explore the Stablecoin Wars, in which different protocols compete for liquidity and composability in DeFi. Sam brings a 1st-person perspective into the developments surrounding UST and the recently launched 4pool on Curve, which consists of stablecoins UST, FRAX, USDT, and USDC.</p> <p>A highlight of this conversation is Sam’s parable of an archetypal central bank, in which he cruises through a number of salient takes on money markets and macroeconomics. There is a lot to learn about this Cambrian explosion of financial technology, and Sam is a great teacher. Stick around to find out why walked away from this conversation bullish on Frax.</p> <p>------<br /> 📣 M·A·C: NFT | Keith Haring Collection for a Good Cause<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/MAC">https://bankless.cc/MAC</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/</a> <br /> 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/</a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: </p> <p>⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALED ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a> </p> <p>❎ ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Across">https://bankless.cc/Across</a> </p> <p>🏦 ALTO IRA | TAX-FREE CRYPTO<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA">https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA</a> </p> <p>👻 AAVE V3 | LEND & BORROW CRYPTO<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/aave">https://bankless.cc/aave</a> </p> <p>⚡️ MAKER DAO | THE DAI STABLECOIN<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/MakerDAO">https://bankless.cc/MakerDAO</a> </p> <p>🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 3:30 Sam from Frax<br /> 7:50 The Stablecoin Narrative<br /> 13:45 The Central Bank Parable<br /> 24:45 Backing an Exchange Rate</p> <p>28:10 Frax Analytics | What is Frax?<br /> 37:34 Frax Analytics | The Peg<br /> 42:30 Frax Analytics | Comparing<br /> 45:03 RSA Gets Frax-Pilled</p> <p>49:42 MIM vs UST<br /> 53:16 The LUNA Token<br /> 56:41 Frax Roadmap | FPI</p> <p>1:04:36 The 4pool<br /> 1:14:00 The Stablecoin Wars<br /> 1:18:35 What Happens Next?<br /> 1:23:20 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Sam on Twitter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/samkazemian">https://twitter.com/samkazemian</a> </p> <p>Frax Finance<br /> <a href= "https://app.frax.finance/">https://app.frax.finance/</a> </p> <p>Decentralized Finance and the Debt Cycles<br /> <a href= "https://academy.blue-swan.io/blog/decentralized-finance-and-the-debt-cycles"> https://academy.blue-swan.io/blog/decentralized-finance-and-the-debt-cycles</a> </p> <p>Market Share Chart<br /> <a href= "https://www.theblockcrypto.com/data/decentralized-finance/stablecoins/total-crypto-backed-and-algorithmic-stablecoin-supply"> https://www.theblockcrypto.com/data/decentralized-finance/stablecoins/total-crypto-backed-and-algorithmic-stablecoin-supply</a> </p> <p>Do Kwon’s 4pool Tweet<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/stablekwon/status/1510021707377287170">https://twitter.com/stablekwon/status/1510021707377287170</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

UST: New Paradigm or Ticking Time Bomb? | Terra Bear vs. Bull
<p>Terra is exploding. Do Kwon and the Terra ecosystem are turning Bitcoin into their collateral asset of choice to backstop LUNA and the UST stablecoin. Over the last several weeks, the Luna Foundation Guard (LFG) have bought over 30,000 BTC... and they don't plan to stop there.</p> <p>As the LFG climbs the ranks of bitcoin holders, Do Kwon has started playing empire games—claiming victory over the Curve Wars with the 4pool (which contains UST, Frax, USDC, and USDT), calling for the end of DAI, and attempting to build out the Terra ecosystem as the ultimate power in the universe.</p> <p>Is Terra (UST) the future of crypto money? Or is it a ticking time bomb waiting to explode? Perhaps the truth is somewhere in the middle, so we're going to debate it. From the bull side is Delphi Digital's José Maria Macedo, and representing the skeptics is Selini Capital's Jordi Alexander.</p> <p>------<br /> CONSENSYS | M·A·C: NFT Collection for a Good Cause<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/MAC">https://bankless.cc/MAC</a> </p> <p>------<br /> SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/</a> <br /> ️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/</a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS:</p> <p>️ ARBITRUM | SCALED ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a> </p> <p>ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Across">https://bankless.cc/Across</a> </p> <p>ALTO IRA | TAX-FREE CRYPTO<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA">https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA</a> </p> <p>AAVE V3 | LEND & BORROW CRYPTO<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/aave">https://bankless.cc/aave</a> </p> <p>️ MAKER DAO | THE DAI STABLECOIN<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/MakerDAO">https://bankless.cc/MakerDAO</a> </p> <p>BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Timestamps:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 7:30 LUNA/UST Fundamental Properties<br /> 15:15 The Balance Between LUNA/ETH<br /> 20:00 Why Bullish/Bearish?<br /> 25:28 Why is UST a Successful Stable?<br /> 30:19 Are Algo-Stablecoins Unstable?<br /> 42:25 Anchor's Utility<br /> 48:02 Do Kwon $10B Purchase of LUNA<br /> 52:02 Is UST Becoming a Bank?<br /> 57:00 Risks of De-pegging<br /> 1:06:30 Has LUNA/UST Been Tested?<br /> 1:15:00 Do Kwon & Decentralization<br /> 1:27:50 Do Kwon's 4pool<br /> 1:39:05 Potential Nightmare Scenarios<br /> 1:48:04 Closing Arguments</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Jordi Alexander CIO of Selini Capital<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/gametheorizing">https://twitter.com/gametheorizing</a> </p> <p>Jose Macedo Founding Partner, Delphi Digital<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/zemariamacedo">https://twitter.com/zemariamacedo</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

APECOIN—Bullish or Bearish for CryptoPunks? | Zeneca, Andy8052, Scott Lewis
<p>In a massive week for Bored Ape Yacht Club studio Yuga Labs, they acquired CryptoPunks & Meebits from Larva Labs, as well as releasing their community token $APE. With ApeCoin and a massive inflow of intellectual property, the NFT space is spinning with buzz and speculation about what this all means.</p> <p>Today, we have Zeneca_33, Andy8052, and Scott Lewis joining State of the Nation to get to the bottom of this monumental event. What does this mean for Punks and Apes? What about intellectual property, ownership, and value? And lastly, are we seeing the dawn of a new age of digital monopolies?</p> <p>In this chaotic landscape, a rational and steady approach to understanding is always a winner. </p> <p>------<br /> 📣 ZERION | Trade Across 7 Networks and 500+ protocols<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Zerion">https://bankless.cc/Zerion</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/ </a> <br /> 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/ </a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: </p> <p>👀 POLYGON | LAYER 2 DEFI<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Polygon">https://bankless.cc/Polygon</a> </p> <p>❎ ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Across">https://bankless.cc/Across</a> </p> <p>🦊 METAMASK | THE CRYPTO WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/metamask">https://bankless.cc/metamask</a> </p> <p>💳 LEDGER | THE CRYPTO LIFE CARD<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Ledger">https://bankless.cc/Ledger</a> </p> <p>🧙♂️ ALCHEMIX | SELF REPAYING LOANS<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Alchemix">https://bankless.cc/Alchemix</a> </p> <p>🦄 UNISWAP | DECENTRALIZED FUNDING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/UniGrants">https://bankless.cc/UniGrants</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 8:00 Panelists<br /> 12:03 What CryptoPunks Want<br /> 16:44 Brand Management<br /> 22:01 Applebees<br /> 26:52 Creative Commons License<br /> 32:00 Best Rights Strategies<br /> 40:00 ApeCoin Launch<br /> 46:20 Is $APE Overvalued?<br /> 54:58 Yuga Labs Deck<br /> 1:00:52 Financials vs Monopolies<br /> 1:04:31 $450 Million Raise<br /> 1:06:45 Panelist Projects<br /> 1:10:00 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Scott Lewis:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/scott_lew_is?s=20&t=kXCI6sgHk2MMkG_PZKekSQ"> https://twitter.com/scott_lew_is?s=20&t=kXCI6sgHk2MMkG_PZKekSQ</a> <br /> Zeneca_33:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/Zeneca_33?s=20&t=kXCI6sgHk2MMkG_PZKekSQ">https://twitter.com/Zeneca_33?s=20&t=kXCI6sgHk2MMkG_PZKekSQ</a> <br /> Andy8052:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/andy8052?s=20&t=kXCI6sgHk2MMkG_PZKekSQ">https://twitter.com/andy8052?s=20&t=kXCI6sgHk2MMkG_PZKekSQ</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

Does Decentralization Matter? | Kevin Owocki & Cooper Turley
<p>What is most important in crypto? What wins out in the end? Today, we find out if user experience is more important than decentralization. As we progress through crypto's cambrian explosion, we often observe the tradeoff between immediate product viability and a 'no cutting corners' approach.</p> <p>Taking the side of UX & a product-first mentality is Cooper Turley, a champion of the creator economy. Kevin Owocki—himself a schelling point for public goods—is defending decentralization and the merits of a values-first approach.</p> <p>While exploring the roots of this tradeoff, we'll learn more about where we are as an ecosystem and where we are inevitably heading.</p> <p>------<br /> 📣 ZERION | Trade Across 7 Networks and 500+ protocols<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Zerion">https://bankless.cc/Zerion</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/<br /> 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: http://podcast.banklesshq.com/</p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS:</p> <p>👀 POLYGON | LAYER 2 DEFI<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Polygon">https://bankless.cc/Polygon</a> </p> <p>❎ ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Across">https://bankless.cc/Across</a> </p> <p>🦊 METAMASK | THE CRYPTO WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/metamask">https://bankless.cc/metamask</a> </p> <p>💳 LEDGER | THE CRYPTO LIFE CARD<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Ledger">https://bankless.cc/Ledger</a> </p> <p>🧙♂️ ALCHEMIX | SELF REPAYING LOANS<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Alchemix">https://bankless.cc/Alchemix</a> </p> <p>🦄 UNISWAP | DECENTRALIZED FUNDING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/UniGrants">https://bankless.cc/UniGrants</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Timestamps:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 5:45 Decentralization vs. Usability<br /> 10:15 Learnings with New Users<br /> 19:19 How Will Crypto Change the World?<br /> 25:10 Not Compromising on Values<br /> 32:25 Do Users Care About Values?<br /> 36:00 Where/When to Compromise<br /> 39:13 The Importance of DevTooling<br /> 41:00 Crypto's Trojan Horse<br /> 43:36 What Good UX Looks Like<br /> 48:55 Lowest Hanging UX-Fruit<br /> 50:39 How This All Comes to Fruition<br /> 53:11 2022 Crypto W Wishlist</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Cooper on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/Cooopahtroopa">https://twitter.com/Cooopahtroopa</a> </p> <p>Kevin on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/owocki">https://twitter.com/owocki</a> </p> <p>Foundation:<br /> <a href= "https://foundation.app/">https://foundation.app/</a> </p> <p>Soundxyz:<br /> <a href= "https://www.sound.xyz/">https://www.sound.xyz/</a> </p> <p>Mirror:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/viamirror">https://twitter.com/viamirror</a> </p> <p>Snapshot:<br /> <a href= "https://snapshot.org/#/">https://snapshot.org/#/</a> </p> <p>Gnosis Safe:<br /> <a href= "https://gnosis-safe.io/">https://gnosis-safe.io/</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

Tarun Chitra on whether Code is Law | Layer Zero
<p class="p1">Tarun Chitra, in addition to being Founder and CEO of Gauntlet, is a gigabrain, polymath type in the Ethereum space. His fluency in mathematics results in a creative, almost artistic approach to a traditionally rigorous and analytical field.</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">Perhaps related to his search for beauty, Tarun observes the structural changing of massive systems happening in the broader geopolitical ecosystem today. We explore the relationship between regulation and finance in a unique light. Finance itself is fundamentally a legal practice—it’s money plus law.</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">Finance becomes more elegant with smart contracts, and we muse on the idea that broader governance structures can improve with smart contracts as well. Is code law? Can we generalize capital efficiency?</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">------</p> <p class="p1">📣 OPOLIS | Sign Up to Get 1000 $WORK and 1000 $BANK</p> <p class="p3"><a href= "https://bankless.cc/Opolis">https://bankless.cc/Opolis</a><span class="s1"><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">------</p> <p class="p1">🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER:<span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span> <a href="https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/"><span class= "s2">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/</span></a><span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p class="p1">🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span> <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/"><span class= "s2">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/</span></a><span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">------</p> <p class="p1">BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS:<span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM</p> <p class="p3"><a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a><span class="s1"><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">🍵 MATCHA | SMART ORDER ROUTING</p> <p class="p3"><a href= "https://bankless.cc/Matcha">https://bankless.cc/Matcha</a><span class="s1"><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">🚀 SLINGSHOT | LAYER 2 SOCIAL TRADING</p> <p class="p3"><a href= "https://bankless.cc/Slingshot">https://bankless.cc/Slingshot</a><span class="s1"><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">🏦 GEMINI | TURN FIAT INTO CRYPTO</p> <p class="p3"><a href= "https://bankless.cc/Gemini">https://bankless.cc/Gemini</a><span class="s1"><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET</p> <p class="p3"><a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a><span class="s1"><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">🦄 UNISWAP | DECENTRALIZED FUNDING</p> <p class="p3"><a href= "https://bankless.cc/UniGrants">https://bankless.cc/UniGrants</a><span class="s1"><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">------</p> <p class="p1">Topics Covered:</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">0:00 Intro</p> <p class="p1">4:30 Tarun Chitra</p> <p class="p1">8:15 New York City & Boom Cities</p> <p class="p1">14:00 Global Crypto</p> <p class="p1">18:00 Leapfrogging the US</p> <p class="p1">27:45 Governance & Regulation</p> <p class="

109 - SBF and the Future of FTX
<p>Sam Bankman-Fried—or simply SBF—is the founder and CEO of FTX, one of crypto’s biggest exchanges. In this episode, we dive into how Sam built a company worth $30 billion… in less than three years! And before the age of 30!</p> <p>As a centralized exchange unicorn, FTX has exploded into the mainstream, sponsoring massive sports arenas and partnerships with celebrities like Tom Brady. The mainstream-ification of FTX culminated with its Super Bowl ad with Larry David, which had a significant cultural impact on FTX and crypto more broadly.</p> <p>Is Sam on Team DeFi? Or is FTX a competitor? And what about banks? SBF also recently appeared in front of Congress. After this discussion, we are increasingly convinced of the alignment between Bankless and SBF.</p> <p>------<br /> ✨ DEBRIEF ✨ | Ryan & David's Unfiltered Thoughts on the Episode<br /> <a href= "https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-sbf">https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-sbf</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 📣 OPOLIS | Sign Up to Get 1000 $WORK and 1000 $BANK<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Opolis">https://bankless.cc/Opolis</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/</a> <br /> 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/ </a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: </p> <p>⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a> </p> <p>🍵 MATCHA | SMART ORDER ROUTING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Matcha">https://bankless.cc/Matcha</a> </p> <p>🚀 SLINGSHOT | LAYER 2 SOCIAL TRADING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Slingshot">https://bankless.cc/Slingshot</a> </p> <p>🏦 GEMINI | TURN FIAT INTO CRYPTO<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Gemini">https://bankless.cc/Gemini</a> </p> <p>🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a> </p> <p>🦄 UNISWAP | DECENTRALIZED FUNDING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/UniGrants">https://bankless.cc/UniGrants</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 5:30 SBF<br /> 9:13 Building Successful Products<br /> 15:56 Why Sam is in Crypto<br /> 20:40 Crypto Values & Opportunity<br /> 25:27 Use Cases & Decentralization<br /> 31:04 The Future of FTX<br /> 37:18 FTX vs DeFi<br /> 41:16 SBF’s Preferred Blockchains<br /> 45:12 Sam’s Legendary Tweet<br /> 53:30 FTX vs Banks<br /> 56:46 Regulation<br /> 1:03:45 Talking to Congress<br /> 1:06:02 Spectrum of Decentralization<br /> 1:10:05 Super Bowl Ads<br /> 1:16:34 Mainstream Crypto & NFTs<br /> 1:21:30 Building Wealth<br /> 1:24:45 Giving Everything Away<br /> 1:27:45 Crypto Price Predictions<br /> 1:31:27 Crypto 5 Years from Now</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>SBF on Twitter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/SBF_FTX">https://twitter.com/SBF_FTX</a> <br /> FTX<br /> <a href="https://ftx.com/en">https://ftx.com/en</a> <br /> Sam’s Legendary Tweet<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/SBF_FTX/status/1347964322459262977">https://twitter.com/SBF_FTX/status/1347964322459262977</a> <br /> FTX Super Bowl Commercial<br /> <a href= "https://youtu.be/BH5-rSxilxo">https://youtu.be/BH5-rSxilxo</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

<p>David Heinemeir Hansson is the Co-Founder of Basecamp & HEY. DHH is a best-selling author, technologist—responsible for creating Ruby on Rails—and a recent crypto skeptic, turned crypto-curious experimenter.</p> <p>DHH recently wrote a viral blog post titled, “I Was Wrong, We Need Crypto” in which he explains why he’s skeptical of crypto, what ultimately changed his mind, and how he’s thinking about the future of the space going forward.</p> <p>It’s not every day Bankless brings on a crypto skeptic, but DHH is different. He provides a balanced—well thought out perspective on what the current state of crypto is and what needs to change to make it go mainstream.</p> <p>------<br /> ✨ DEBRIEF ✨ | Ryan & David's Unfiltered Thoughts on the Episode<br /> <a href= "https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-i-was-wrong-we-need-crypto"> https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-i-was-wrong-we-need-crypto</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 📣 OPOLIS | Sign Up to Get 1000 $WORK and 1000 $BANK<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Opolis">https://bankless.cc/Opolis</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/</a> <br /> 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/</a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS:</p> <p>⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a> </p> <p>🍵 MATCHA | SMART ORDER ROUTING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Matcha">https://bankless.cc/Matcha</a> </p> <p>🚀 SLINGSHOT | LAYER 2 SOCIAL TRADING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Slingshot">https://bankless.cc/Slingshot</a> </p> <p>🏦 GEMINI | TURN FIAT INTO CRYPTO<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Gemini">https://bankless.cc/Gemini</a> </p> <p>🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a> </p> <p>🦄 UNISWAP | DECENTRALIZED FUNDING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/UniGrants">https://bankless.cc/UniGrants</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 6:20 Who is DHH<br /> 14:02 Crypto Observations<br /> 17:00 DHH’s Top Crypto Skepticisms<br /> 29:55 How to be Wrong About Things<br /> 37:00 What Changed DHH’s Mind<br /> 45:50 Pushback on DHH’s Post<br /> 52:50 The Release Valves<br /> 1:02:00 New Skills Needed<br /> 1:11:20 Other Crypto Rabbit Holes<br /> 1:17:44 Russian Sanctions<br /> 1:24:50 What Crypto Can Do Better<br /> 1:29:50 What’s Next in Crypto For DHH<br /> 1:33:50 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>DHH on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/dhh">https://twitter.com/dhh</a> </p> <p>DHH’s Website:<br /> <a href="https://dhh.dk">https://dhh.dk</a> </p> <p>Episode #55:<br /> <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpzFU7MW5y4">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpzFU7MW5y4</a> </p> <p>DHH Books:<br /> <a href= "https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/23587.David_Heinemeier_Hansson?from_search=true&from_srp=true"> https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/23587.David_Heinemeier_Hansson?from_search=true&from_srp=true</a> </p> <p>I Was Wrong We Need Crypto:<br /> <a href= "https://world.hey.com/dhh/i-was-wrong-we-need-crypto-587ccb03">https://world.hey.com/dhh/i-was-wrong-we-need-crypto-587ccb03</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.
