31. Dr. Sergey Kachur & OxHunter: How to incentivize truth through professional consensus
Welcome to EARLY, the podcast about web3 business from Bankless Consulting.
DSide's guests today are Dr. Sergey Kachur and 0xHunter. Dr. Kachur is the founder of the UMedHub and UHub protocol, while OxHunter is a software consultant from Bankless Consultancy who collaborated with Dr.Kachur on the project. The protocol seeks to align incentives with purpose in the healthcare profession by rewarding industry professionals for answering questions from the community. The answers are fully audited by other industry professionals, which creates a virtuous reward cycle. The cycle rewards the most palatable and accurate information based on consensus, as well as rewarding the community member who initiated the question.
The episode delved into the evolution of the UMed protocol, emphasizing its core goal of monetizing and delivering physician expertise while expanding into a broader information management system. DSide and the guests get into discussing Dr. Kachur's "Aha moment," which led to the creation of the UMed protocol. It stemmed from his experience studying for board exams and the realization that there could be a way to incentivize users and automate the process of extracting value from repetitive question answering.
The episode progresses to an extensive Q and A session with the two guests. They explore further Dr.Kachur’s Aha moment, his excitement about how the protocol can extend beyond the Healthcare Industry, and his desire to disrupt the social media industry by creating a repository of consensus-oriented data that distinguishes accurate information from the rest.
The episode concludes with a discussing of incentive models for truth and the risks associated with consensus being wrong. The guests were particularly excited to test the tokenomic assumptions of attaching value to niche knowledge communities and turning hobbies into valuable assets.

30. Miho Shinke: The intersection of Web3 and personal well-being
Welcome to EARLY, the podcast about web3 business from Bankless Consulting.
DSide's guest today is Miho Shinke, an operational development trainer and consultant for manufacturing companies and NGOs across Africa, Southeast Asia, and Japan. Miho is distinguished as an ABNLP master coach, which she utilizes to empower individuals and organizations alike by amplifying employee engagement through psychology coaching.
In the episode, Miho elaborates on how her training as a master coach in ABNLP merges emotional intelligence with logic, enabling better communication and cohesion between individuals. The conversation segues into how the ABNLP aligns perfectly with her current work at The Minglo project with Atrae Inc. Miho discusses how Minglo as a platform aims to nurture individual well-being within a communal context. The project focuses on individual fulfillment through application data collection that allows individuals to understand better the needs and motivations of the people they are engaging with.
DSide shifts the conversation to how blockchain technology and Web3 can be implemented across the Minglo project. Miho discusses how offering lifelong data ownership and self-sovereignty over an individual's data set can generate the most accurate results for personal growth and fulfillment. She describes how Minglo is attracting various applications, spanning music, health, sports, and finance, to synergize and promote holistic well-being. At the same time, it allows the individual complete control over access to their data.
The platform's expansion plan is to establish a DAO that opens doors for users to sell their data, fostering a marketplace benefiting researchers, advertisers, and beyond. Towards the end of the episode, the two address the security concerns and use of KYC across all applications on the platform. They conclude the episode by examining the difference in cultural approaches between nations, why Vietnam is the ideal country for launching the Minglo platform, and how the Minglo platform can be leveraged for remote work.
