Audacious

scottrepreneur is a nerd you need to know.

How does blockchain layering work? What can composability provide? What’s the value of money being mechanized? Can you translate the difference between centralized, protocol, and blockchain networks? Maybe you’re exploring ways to add digital depth to existing products?

So many questions, here are some answers!

After the 10 Commandments of UX are echoed in the break, we talk about how blockchain can support state management and sourcing truth alongside the power of AI. We brew on getting rugged by Big Tech, tokenomics to incentivize contribution, the lasting value of NFTs, user ownership in social media, Hats Protocol, web3 accelerators, Bitcoin halving, burning digital assets, and zero knowledge proofs. Try to keep up, share with a developer, and stay wild with tons of related episodes below. Let’s keep learning and building… together!
