ETHDenver 2022 is Scaling Vibes | Andrew Yang, Erik Voorhees, Kevin Owocki
Few things compare to ETH Denver. It is impossible to fully capture the experience of the crypto community at a massive gathering like this, but these two choice talks provide a snapshot of the vibes and ethos of the 2022 conference. Kevin Owocki and Erik Voorhees join to synthesize the respective merits of individualism and collectivism, and Andrew Yang stepped up to give an impromptu call to action for the community to rally around productive goals. <p>We are scaling out the crypto vibes, and that was abundantly clear this week. Far larger than any previous ETH Denver, this conference truly felt like a Schelling point for folks changing the world via novel, elegant mechanisms. We just can’t wait for ETH Denver 2023.</p> <p>------<br /> 📣 NOTIONAL FINANCE | DeFi's Leading Fixed Rate Yield<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Notional">https://bankless.cc/Notional</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 /> 12:01 Journey to ETH Denver<br /> 16:18 The Panels<br /> 22:37 Vibes</p> <p>34:00 Kevin Owocki & Erik Voorhees<br /> 43:28 Pragmatism<br /> 50:57 Public Goods Funding</p> <p>1:00:00 Andrew Yang & Crypto Alignment<br /> 1:06:31 Lobby3<br /> 1:13:53 Roadmaps & Executive Orders<br /> 1:22:14 Action & Optimism<br /> 1:27:45 Audience Questions</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Kevin on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/owocki?s=20&t=O_vNoy9YMBatb8lIbf9ByA">https://twitter.com/owocki?s=20&t=O_vNoy9YMBatb8lIbf9ByA</a> </p> <p>Erik on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/ErikVoorhees?s=20&t=O_vNoy9YMBatb8lIbf9ByA"> https://twitter.com/ErikVoorhees?s=20&t=O_vNoy9YMBatb8lIbf9ByA</a> </p> <p>Andrew on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/AndrewYang?s=20&t=O_vNoy9YMBatb8lIbf9ByA">https://twitter.com/AndrewYang?s=20&t=O_vNoy9YMBatb8lIbf9ByA</a> </p> <p>Lobby3:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/Lobby3D?s=20&t=q417PS_HIJMGmpXqJYhPVg">https://twitter.com/Lobby3D?s=20&t=q417PS_HIJMGmpXqJYhPVg</a> </p> <p>Take the Green Pill:<br /> <a href= "https://greenpill.party/">https://greenpill.party/</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

ARK Analysts call $1M BTC, $180K ETH | Bullish Crypto Price Predictions
<p>In their seminal 'Big Ideas' report for 2022, the ARK team predicts the prices of $1M for Bitcoin and over $180K for Ether. These numbers may seem outrageous in a short time frame, but with a broader perspective about the total addressable market for cryptoassets over the next decade, these ambitious predictions sharpen into something more than exuberance.</p> <p>With paradigm shifts underway, we're bringing on ARK analysts Frank Downing and Yassine Elmandjra to discuss the why, how, and when of these hot price predictions–and why it's more than just the price that matters.</p> <p>How bullish are you?

105 - Crypto in Washington | Congressman Tom Emmer
Is D.C. taking crypto seriously? Congressman Tom Emmer shares the latest from the ongoings in Washington. Minnesota Representative Emmer is a 4th term member of the House of Representatives. He sits on the House Financial Services Committee and is a dedicated crypto advocate. Many of us have preconceived notions that the majority of the government is anti-crypto. Representative Emmer explains why this isn’t entirely true. We also unpack what’s at stake here. What happens if we get crypto policy wrong? How do we defeat the super-shadowy-legislators? Should we follow in China’s Digital Yuan footsteps? <p>Lastly, Representative Emmers shares that Bankless—yes—Bankless is having an impact in Washington! Find out in what way and how we’re going to continue crypto-pilling everyone in Washington.</p> <p>------<br /> ✨ DEBRIEF ✨ | Ryan & David's Unfiltered Thoughts on the Episode<br /> <a href= "https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-crypto-in-washington-congressman"> https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-crypto-in-washington-congressman</a> </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>⚖️ 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 /> 6:00 Rep.

Boys Club | Layer Zero
<p>The Boys Club is a DAO-in-training that is building products, resources, and communities to make the crypto space a more welcome place for women. Crypto has traditionally not been a particularly women-friendly place, with a sub-culture of basement-dwelling libertarian bros. But that is changing.</p> <p>There are an increasing number of ways to break into crypto, and the Boys Club is tackling this head on. Natasha Hoskins and Deana Burke are co-founders of the community, and they note that women have far more presence at IRL crypto events than on the internet. And Boys Club members rep the Boys Club. Hard.</p> <p>With a strong mission, sound goals, and immaculate vibes, the Boys Club have already blazed trails, but there is a strong future ahead of them.</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>⚖️ 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 /> 4:30 Natasha & Deana of Boys Club<br /> 8:52 Onboarding Women Into Web3<br /> 15:56 The Boys Club Vibe<br /> 22:56 But What IS Boys Club?<br /> 26:34 The Name<br /> 28:41 Lessons in Scaling<br /> 33:40 More than Mining<br /> 36:10 What Women Have that Crypto Needs<br /> 40:30 Pet Peeves<br /> 42:42 Interviewing Each Other<br /> 49:14 I Think This Is For You<br /> 52:02 Maximally Successful Boys Club<br /> 56:41 Sharing Stories<br /> 59:28 How to Get Involved</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Natasha on Twitter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/natashaghoskins?s=20">https://twitter.com/natashaghoskins?s=20</a> <br /> Deana on Twitter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/medeana?s=20">https://twitter.com/medeana?s=20</a> <br /> Boys Club on Twitter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/BoysClubCrypto?s=20">https://twitter.com/BoysClubCrypto?s=20</a> <br /> BoysClub.vip<br /> <a href="https://boysclub.vip/">https://boysclub.vip/</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

103 - Blockchains are Cities | Haseeb Qureshi
<p>First, Haseeb Qureshi was a Texas Hold’em poker player. Then Haseeb learned how to code and worked as a software engineer for Airbnb. He went down the crypto rabbithole and is now the managing partner at Dragonfly Capital, as well as an accomplished writer and coder.</p> <p>He recently published an article titled Blockchains are Cities, expanding on a mental model for understanding the crypto landscape from a high level perspective. We brought Haseeb back onto the Bankless Podcast to dive into this metaphor, which explains how cities (and blockchains) scale.</p> <p>We also explore the question of the decade: Will we live in a multi-chain world, or will there be “one chain to rule them all”?</p> <p>------<br /> ✨ DEBRIEF ✨ | Ryan & David's Unfiltered Thoughts on the Episode<br /> <a href= "https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-haseeb-cities">https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-haseeb-cities</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 📣 ALTO IRA | THE CRYPTO RETIREMENT ACCOUNT<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA">https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA</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 /> 6:00 Haseeb and Context<br /> 11:35 Why Cities?<br /> 17:15 Limitations & Trust<br /> 23:27 Scaling Like Cities<br /> 31:15 Who’s Building Vertically?<br /> 36:27 Application Specific Chains<br /> 45:14 Building More Cities<br /> 54:23 Goals, Tradeoffs, and Winners<br /> 1:01:20 Cross-Chain Bridges<br /> 1:05:59 Cities or Nation States?<br /> 1:12:36 Security and Military<br /> 1:23:20 Individuals vs Chains<br /> 1:30:36 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Haseeb on Twitter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/hosseeb?s=20">https://twitter.com/hosseeb?s=20</a> <br /> Dragonfly Capital<br /> <a href= "https://www.dcp.capital/">https://www.dcp.capital/</a> <br /> Blockchains are Cities<br /> <a href= "https://medium.com/dragonfly-research/blockchains-are-cities-564327013f86"> https://medium.com/dragonfly-research/blockchains-are-cities-564327013f86</a> <br /> Why Decentralization Isn’t As Important As You Think<br /> <a href= "https://haseebq.com/why-decentralization-isnt-as-important-as-you-think/"> https://haseebq.com/why-decentralization-isnt-as-important-as-you-think/</a> <br /> I’m Worried No One Will Care About Rollups<br /> <a href= "https://medium.com/dragonfly-research/im-worried-nobody-will-care-about-rollups-554bc743d4f1"> https://medium.com/dragonfly-research/im-worried-nobody-will-care-about-rollups-554bc743d4f1</a> <br /> The ETH2 Metropolis<br /> <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/p/defi-in-the-eth2-metropolis-haseeb"> https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/p/defi-in-the-eth2-metropolis-haseeb</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

102 - The Emerging Metaverse | Sam Englebardt & Richard Kim
Sam Englebardt is a co-founder and partner at Galaxy Digital, and is the founding general partner of Galaxy Interactive, which invests in next-generation interactive entertainment. He is also a content producer of film and television, working in a broad range of traditional & digital businesses. Richard Kim is a general partner at Galaxy Interactive, after a stint as COO at Galaxy Digital. <p>These two guests are getting their hands dirty as the gaming, cultural, and technological worlds converge into the Metaverse. Trying to predict, invest, and help build this emerging phenomenon is a massive endeavor, but it’s one that we need to get right.</p> <p>Exploring what the Metaverse actually is, how today’s internet compares to the digital worlds of the future, and optimizing the user experience comprise the core of this discussion—but we open it to understanding the skeptics in the space, as well game economies and tokenomics. Sam and Richard expect to see a mass exodus into the Metaverse over the next couple decades… how are you going to play the Metaverse game?</p> <p>------<br /> 📣 ALTO IRA | THE CRYPTO RETIREMENT ACCOUNT<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA">https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA</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 /> 5:00 Sam & Richard of Galaxy<br /> 8:23 The Year of the Metaverse<br /> 13:33 The Gaming Gateway<br /> 17:09 Skeptical Pioneers<br /> 26:21 Value vs Price<br /> 29:30 Enabling, not Escape<br /> 36:27 Building Stakes that Matter<br /> 43:51 Steak and the Sizzle<br /> 47:45 Creating Meaning in the Metaverse<br /> 55:21 Social Sandboxes & Other Theses<br /> 1:02:55 Viewer Participation<br /> 1:07:54 The Power of Emergence<br /> 1:13:48 How the Thesis Changes<br /> 1:18:40 Overhyped?

Inflation, The Fed, & Macro Markets | Jim Bianco
<p>The Fed has made a big pivot in 2022, but what does that mean for markets? How aggressive does the Fed need to be to fight inflation?</p> <p>With the shift from Quantitative Easing to Quantitative Tightening, how are risk-on assets treated differently from risk-off assets? What's going on with the bond market?</p> <p>Jim Bianco is a seasoned investor, market commentator, and President of Bianco Research.

The Song-A-Day Man | Jonathan Mann (Layer Zero)
<p>Jonathan Mann writes and publishes a song every single day. He's done this without missing a day since January 1st, 2009, and holds the Guinness World Record for most consecutive days writing a song.</p> <p>His inspiration, passion, consistency, and all-around charm really comes through as he explores his journey in both music and crypto.

101 - The Ownership Economy | Li Jin
<p>Li Jin is a co-founder and general partner at Variant, a crypto fund investing in Web3 and what Li calls the Ownership Economy. Li is full of massive ideas about the past, present, and future of digital economies.</p> <p>The core thesis? Next-generation networks grow faster and bigger. The phase we're seeing emerge now with Web3 and crypto is deeply fascinating, with potential to shift power and ownership into the hands of users and creators.</p> <p>In this new paradigm, everyone is a creator, and everyone is an owner. In addition to her work at Variant, Li is also a painter and an accomplished writer on Substack. After her appearance on the Creator Economy Panel, we knew she had to come back on Bankless to dive deep—this time, into the Ownership Economy.</p> <p>------<br /> ✨ DEBRIEF ✨ | Ryan & David's Unfiltered Thoughts on the Episode<br /> <a href= "https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-the-ownership-economy-li">https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-the-ownership-economy-li</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 📣 ALTO IRA | THE CRYPTO RETIREMENT ACCOUNT<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA">https://bankless.cc/AltoIRA</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 /> Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 6:30 Creator vs Ownership Economy<br /> 12:58 Phases of Economies<br /> 17:34 The Web3 Renaissance<br /> 21:53 Issues with the Early Internet<br /> 27:11 Original Sin<br /> 35:11 From Attention to Ownership<br /> 38:48 Digital Scarcity<br /> 47:41 Patronage Plus vs Regulation<br /> 52:59 100 True Fans<br /> 1:01:17 Programmable Business Models<br /> 1:09:17 DAOs & Community Ownership<br /> 1:14:48 Comparing Renaissances<br /> 1:21:36 Wealth Inequality<br /> 1:29:58 What YOU Can Do<br /> 1:35:23 What ELSE You Can Do<br /> 1:38:54 2022 Predictions<br /> 1:42:35 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Li on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/ljin18?s=20">https://twitter.com/ljin18?s=20</a> </p> <p>Li's Newsletter:<br /> <a href= "https://li.substack.com/">https://li.substack.com/</a> </p> <p>The Web3 Renaissance:<br /> <a href= "https://li.substack.com/p/the-web3-renaissance-a-golden-age">https://li.substack.com/p/the-web3-renaissance-a-golden-age</a> </p> <p>100 True Fans:<br /> <a href= "https://li-jin.co/2020/02/19/100-true-fans/">https://li-jin.co/2020/02/19/100-true-fans/</a> </p> <p>The Creator Economy:<br /> <a href= "https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/-panel-the-creator-economy-jesse">https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/-panel-the-creator-economy-jesse</a> </p> <p>Tweets Mentioned:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/ljin18/status/1434964132042846208">https://twitter.com/ljin18/status/1434964132042846208</a> <br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/ljin18/status/1422928459425271811">https://twitter.com/ljin18/status/1422928459425271811</a> <br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/ljin18/status/1404650885788098562">https://twitter.com/ljin18/status/1404650885788098562</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

Aarika Rhodes vs Brad Sherman: Getting Crypto into Congress CA-32
<p>Aarika Rhodes is running for Congress! Running against incumbent Brad Sherman, who is notoriously misinformed and anti-crypto, Aarika seeks to bring a more crypto-friendly approach to CA-32, representing much of the San Fernando Valley in Southern California.</p> <p>A schoolteacher by profession, Aarika seems to be breathing fresh air into the stale political landscape. Here's her policy on crypto:</p> <p>"Aarika believes in the right of every individual to manage their own finances and investments as they see fit. In Congress, Aarika will oppose any attempts to ban this emerging technology. Aarika is also a strong advocate for making sure financial literacy is taught in schools and for people being aware of the environmental impact of their investments."</p> <p>Learn more about Aarika: <a href= "https://www.aarikaforcongress.com/">https://www.aarikaforcongress.com/</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 📣 ONJUNO | Crypto from your Checking Account!<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/OnJuno">https://bankless.cc/OnJuno</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 /> 6:30 Aarika Rhodes<br /> 11:33 Why Get Involved?<br /> 16:42 Anti-Crypto Policies<br /> 21:09 California's 32nd District<br /> 25:17 How America Can Win Crypto<br /> 30:00 The Youth & Environment<br /> 34:15 Web3 vs Banking<br /> 38:11 Financial Literacy<br /> 42:31 The Campaign<br /> 46:09 Proactive in the Community<br /> 47:58 The Single-Issue Voter<br /> 50:29 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Aarika on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/AarikaRhodes?s=20">https://twitter.com/AarikaRhodes?s=20</a> </p> <p>Aarika's Tweet:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/AarikaRhodes/status/1468647038925500418?s=20">https://twitter.com/AarikaRhodes/status/1468647038925500418?s=20</a> </p> <p>Get Involved:<br /> <a href= "https://www.aarikaforcongress.com/">https://www.aarikaforcongress.com/</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

Udi Wertheimer | Layer Zero
<p>Udi Wertheimer is a notorious persona on crypto twitter and is endlessly difficult to pin down. At the very least, Udi is an interesting and unique character, describing himself as a cynical optimist with a tendency to antagonize and troll.</p> <p>Udi is also insightful and pragmatic, constantly making connections and critiques of the space with a sharp eye and a relentless desire to call things out when he disagrees. He blurs a lot of lines, and you always have to be on your toes when Udi’s around.</p> <p>There’s value in having members in the community who never give the benefit of the doubt and act as a philosophical razor for the space. Udi is full of takes, and this conversation twists and turns through the entirety of crypto—trading, culture, communities, memes, the metaverse, and beyond.</p> <p>------<br /> 📣 ONJUNO | Crypto from your Checking Account!<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/OnJuno">https://bankless.cc/OnJuno</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 /> 3:30 Udi, a Meme Tactition<br /> 9:08 Trading Ponzis<br /> 15:58 Not Changing the World<br /> 22:22 Optimism, Memes, Community<br /> 30:20 Winners & Decentralization<br /> 38:33 Composability & User Experience<br /> 42:14 SBF and Competition<br /> 49:10 Culture & Meme Communities<br /> 55:30 Bitcoin Twitter vs Bitcoin Reality<br /> 1:01:00 Pricing Values<br /> 1:06:30 Critique of Ethereum & Bankless<br /> 1:14:53 2022, Metaverse, Resolutions<br /> 1:22:19 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Udi on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/udiWertheimer?s=20">https://twitter.com/udiWertheimer?s=20</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

100 - How to Survive in Crypto | Cobie
<p>🎉 Happy 100th Episode 🎉</p> <p>Cobie, fka Crypto Cobain, is a cultural staple in the crypto space. Wearing many hats as a narrative investor, thought leader, and memelord, we dive into the brain of one of our favorite crypto characters.</p> <p>Having been in crypto for nearly a decade, Cobie tells us his keys to surviving in crypto and what it takes to last long term. We also dive into how much decentralization matters, roles and responsibilities in shaping the world around us, and his outlook for 2022 and beyond.</p> <p>Cobie advises a healthy dose of skepticism and curiosity, and describes himself as a reality maximalist. He’s gone on an absolute tear recently, dropping a series of excellent thought piece articles that establish mental models for understanding narratives across the ecosystem.</p> <p>We also go through moral alignment charts and ask Cobie the big question… What does he think of Bankless?</p> <p>------<br /> ✨ DEBRIEF ✨ | Ryan & David's Unfiltered Thoughts on the Episode<br /> <a href= "https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-cobie">https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-cobie</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 📣 ONJUNO | Crypto from your Checking Account!<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/OnJuno">https://bankless.cc/OnJuno</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 How Cobie Survives in Crypto<br /> 13:41 Early Discoveries<br /> 21:22 Reality Maximalism<br /> 32:38 Responsibility & Roles<br /> 43:39 Tribes, Decentralization, Utility<br /> 53:10 Profit Maximalism<br /> 1:01:31 Staking & Incentives<br /> 1:10:42 Wins and Losses<br /> 1:19:20 Crypto Brain & Culture<br /> 1:28:45 Wealth & Purpose<br /> 1:36:18 Chaotic Good & UpOnly<br /> 1:39:58 Judging Others<br /> 1:54:00 Bullish or Bearish in 2022<br /> 2:00:42 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Cobie on Twitter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/cobie?s=20">https://twitter.com/cobie?s=20</a> <br /> UpOnly<br /> <a href="https://uponly.tv/">https://uponly.tv/</a> <br /> Cobie’s Newsletter<br /> <a href= "https://cobie.substack.com/">https://cobie.substack.com/</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

TribeDAO - The Biggest Protocol Merge Ever
<p>In the latter half of 2021, Jai Bhavnani of Rari Capital and Joey Santoro of FEI Protocol went to each other's governance forums and proposed the FEI RARI token merge: the biggest protocol merger that we've ever seen in the space.</p> <p>The concept garnered high engagement and a ton of community response, and the formal votes received overwhelming support on both sides. This unprecedented merge is a historical moment for DAOs. The verticalization of DeFi is happening with new 'mafias' emerging in several corners of DeFi. Uniting capital efficiency, values, and communities, we are right alongside Jai with his excitement to see how this all plays out.</p> <p>With new conversations of anti-trust and competition, it's clear that the DAO space is continuing to mature. Integrated DeFi stacks are increasingly exciting, and in this episode, we dive into the details with two pioneers of interDAO relationships.</p> <p>------<br /> 📣 ONJUNO | Crypto from your Checking Account!<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/OnJuno">https://bankless.cc/OnJuno</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 /> 5:50 The TribeDAO Merger<br /> 10:48 Rari Capital & FEI<br /> 13:37 FEI & Rari Capital<br /> 17:14 Liquidity Engines<br /> 24:36 Turbo Verticalization<br /> 29:12 Aligning Incentives<br /> 32:08 The God Theory of DAOs<br /> 35:19 RGT & Operations<br /> 40:53 The Broader DAO Space<br /> 46:36 Anti-Trust in Crypto<br /> 52:36 TribeDAO Roadmap<br /> 56:42 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Jai on Twitter: <br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/jai_bhavnani?s=20">https://twitter.com/jai_bhavnani?s=20</a> </p> <p>Joey on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/joey__santoro?s=20">https://twitter.com/joey__santoro?s=20</a> </p> <p>FEI:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/feiprotocol?s=20">https://twitter.com/feiprotocol?s=20</a> </p> <p>Rari:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/RariCapital?s=20">https://twitter.com/RariCapital?s=20</a> </p> <p>Jai's Forum Post:<br /> <a href= "https://tribe.fei.money/t/fip-51-fei-rari-token-merge/3642">https://tribe.fei.money/t/fip-51-fei-rari-token-merge/3642</a> </p> <p>Joey's Forum Post:<br /> <a href= "https://forums.rari.capital/d/177-feirari-token-merge">https://forums.rari.capital/d/177-feirari-token-merge</a> </p> <p>Swap RGT for TRIBE:<br /> <a href= "https://feirari-swap-interface.vercel.app/">https://feirari-swap-interface.vercel.app/</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

99 - Endgame | Vitalik Buterin
<p>Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin returns to the podcast to discuss his recent article Endgame, as well as the massive year we observed in 2021. From the future of Ethereum to the rise of alternative Layer 1 platforms, it only makes sense to kick off 2022 by exploring how far we’ve come and figuring out where we’re headed.</p> <p>How far are we along on Ethereum’s roadmap? What challenges lie ahead?</p> <p>In a recent tweet, Vitalik posted a graphic of the updated progress of the Ethereum roadmap, and there are five throughlines that are progressing in parallel:</p> <p>• The Merge<br /> • The Surge<br /> • The Verge<br /> • The Purge<br /> • The Splurge</p> <p>We dive into what each of these means, as well as discuss what Ethereum will look like as these milestones are met.

97 - The Bull Case For ETH III | Anthony Sassano, DC Investor, Cyrus Younessi
<p>Anthony Sassano, DC Investor, and Cyrus Younessi return to Bankless to complete the Bull Case for Ethereum Trilogy. Comparing this episode with the previous two Bull Cases, we can see what has held up so far and what we have to look forward to in 2022.</p> <p>Spoiler: these guys have gotten a lot of things right.</p> <p>Covering topics like the meteoric rise of NFTs, the BTC Flippening, and Ethereum Maximalism, there remains much to be incredibly excited about as we close out a historic 2021. While macro conditions remain uncertain, the conditions of the crypto markets and ecosystems are perhaps surprisingly more digestible.</p> <p>With the Proof-of-Stake merge on the way and the modular blockchain thesis taking shape, the inevitable conclusion is that ETH is destined to go up.</p> <p>What’s 2022 going to look like? No one knows for sure, but this episode left us feeling incredibly bullish.</p> <p>------<br /> 📣 HASHFLOW | POOL & TRADE OTC<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Hashflow">https://bankless.cc/Hashflow</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 | DECENTRALIZED EXCHANGE AGGREGATOR<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Matcha">https://bankless.cc/Matcha</a> </p> <p>🔐 LEDGER | SECURE YOUR ASSETS<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Ledger">https://bankless.cc/Ledger</a> </p> <p>🧙♀️ ALCHEMIX | SELF-PAYING LOANS<br /> <a href= "http://bankless.cc/Alchemix">http://bankless.cc/Alchemix</a> <br /> ------</p> <p>Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 5:45 Recapping the Prequels<br /> 10:21 Crypto in 2021<br /> 17:09 Narratives and Scaling<br /> 23:21 The Cultural Asset Layer<br /> 27:57 Core Value Pillars<br /> 35:34 Do the People Know?<br /> 40:24 PoS and Monetary Policy<br /> 46:45 Bullish APY<br /> 52:52 The Merge and Price<br /> 57:12 Users & Gas Fees<br /> 1:05:59 Layer 1s & Modular Blockchains<br /> 1:09:40 Extreme Decentralization<br /> 1:12:15 Chains that Care<br /> 1:18:00 Maximalism<br /> 1:22:42 Is ETH Going to Scale?<br /> 1:28:09 Market Conditions<br /> 1:38:10 The Flippening & Price Predictions<br /> 1:46:14 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>DC Investor on Twitter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/iamDCinvestor?s=20">https://twitter.com/iamDCinvestor?s=20</a> <br /> Anthony Sassano on Twitter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/sassal0x?s=20">https://twitter.com/sassal0x?s=20</a> <br /> Cyrus Younessi on Twitter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/cyounessi1?s=20">https://twitter.com/cyounessi1?s=20</a> <br /> Bull Case for Ethereum I<br /> <a href= "https://youtu.be/36HkwlqfBaQ">https://youtu.be/36HkwlqfBaQ</a> <br /> Bull Case for Ethereum II <br /> <a href= "https://youtu.be/85M3yGvzCe4">https://youtu.be/85M3yGvzCe4</a> <br /> Ultra Sound Money<br /> <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWqhn1hXvVc&t=0s">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWqhn1hXvVc&t=0s</a> <br /> Ultra Scalable Ethereum<br /> <a href= "https://youtu.be/xjxyjgWiqLE">https://youtu.be/xjxyjgWiqLE</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

10 Predictions About Crypto in 2022 with Ryan Selkis
<p>Ryan Selkis is the Founder and CEO the data analytics platform Messari. In Ryan's past Bankless appearances, we've debated ETH as money and the Triple Point Asset thesis.

Ryan wrote a 150+ page beast of a report titled 'Crypto Theses for 2022,' which covers the space from top to bottom. From DAOs and DeFi to Regulation and NFTs, there is no stone left unturned in this report.</p> <p>In this episode, we digest the mountain of information Ryan puts together on an annual basis to answer the question: What's in store for Crypto in 2022?</p> <p>-----<br /> METAMASK | YOUR HARDWARE WALLET'S BEST FRIEND<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/metamask-shows">https://bankless.cc/metamask-shows</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>GEMINI | FIAT & CRYPTO EXCHANGE<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/go-gemini%E2%80%8B">https://bankless.cc/go-gemini</a> </p> <p>LIDO | DECENTRALIZED STAKING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Lido">https://bankless.cc/Lido</a> </p> <p>AAVE | LEND & BORROW ASSETS<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/aave">https://bankless.cc/aave</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 /> 7:00 Ryan Selkis & Institutional Trust<br /> 14:30 Web3 is Inevitable<br /> 22:08 Inflation & Use Cases<br /> 32:47 WAGMI<br /> 37:45 The Fall of China<br /> 42:52 The American Battleground<br /> 46:55 The Regulator Side<br /> 56:28 The Crypto Coalition<br /> 1:02:20 NFTs & Metaverse<br /> 1:09:48 ETH's Q3 Earnings Report<br /> 1:16:47 ETH Killer Valuations<br /> 1:20:41 ETH is Money Debate<br /> 1:25:33 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Ryan on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/twobitidiot?s=20">https://twitter.com/twobitidiot?s=20</a> </p> <p>The Crypto Theses:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/twobitidiot/status/1466438779196039175?s=20">https://twitter.com/twobitidiot/status/1466438779196039175?s=20</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.
