55: $1 million in stolen cards to startup?
As video games and superhero movies flourish worldwide, the most famous artifacts of geek culture are drawing price tags worthy of the great artists. One startup, run by fans, wants to help other geeks take ownership of the things they love. In this episode we interview founder Joe Mahavuthivanij and discuss: • How losing $1 million worth of Magic: The Gathering cards inspired a collectables-based investment startup • How non-fungible tokens (the system crypto art was using) and collectables can allow people to invest in a small piece of an expensive item • Collectable items can be turned into mini-IPOs • Superhero movies are causing geeky collectables to skyrocket in value Host: Jeff Peterson Links: https://mythicmarkets.com/?r=buzz https://twitter.com/MythicMarkets -------------------------------- If you like what you heard, please leave us a 5-star review and share the podcast! -------------------------------- Affiliates: If you don't have a Coinbase account, it’s a convenient way to buy, sell, and store smaller cryptocurrency online (it's FDIC insured to $250k).

54: Art of Scrappy Startup, Boston Fed Edition
This is our central banking perspective, with guest Paul Brassil, technology solutions at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. Brassil is an industry veteran who switched to a career with the Federal Reserve System. Having been involved with blockchain projects since early days, Paul is familiar with ins-and-outs of tech experimentations, shaping its technical roadmap. His team also evaluates automation, including AI, and other emerging tech. Paul sees software eating the world (e.g. Uber, Airbnb). His approach to emerging tech is not just digitizing legacy infrastructure and economic models but think about broader paradigm shifts. Paul compares their blockchain experimentation at the Boston Fed to a 'scrappy' tech startup. To help the Fed be more educated and prepared for market adoption, they want to provide thought leadership based on practical experimentation in a sandbox-like environment. The Boston Fed stands out from its counterparts in the Federal Reserve System with its focus on tinkering rather than policy & economic research. As a public service org., they want to apply their learnings to Fed functions, including payments settlement, regulation & supervision, regional and community outreach, blockchain for social good, as well as training their bank examiners on distributed ledger knowledge. Paul thinks Facebook's Libra, like other ambitious tech projects, should aim to create a mobile experience so smooth that even his grandmother can use it.

53: Storytelling Inspired By Puppet Theatre
Rizqi Rachmat, an international hip hop artist and visual designer, stars in the Amazon film documentary: “Rizqi Presents Blockchain.” Rizqi's world is mixed with economic think tanks and creative arts. He attributes the forces that shape him today: martial arts, Wayang (Indonesian puppet theatre), his mother's dancing, and an education that emphasizes free markets. Rizqi talks to us about fascinating aspects of his film production, including a visit to the Bitcoin mining center in Montana in dead of winter. He shares why he believes this technology could empower people in a democracy (i.e. voting), while disrupting the future of finance, among other areas. That's why he wants to blend urban art movement and visuals into his storytelling to help distill various ideas for audience in the film.
