A 12-episode mini-series podcast that aims to evaluate blockchain, other DLTs, Web3, NFTs, & their potential applications in the digital economy. Basically, is there something there? If so, what is it? Listen to the last episode for my perspectives.
Guests include technologists, entrepreneurs, executives, and community members sharing their invaluable insights.
In this episode, I provide more insights as to why the podcast is on hiatus. I also explore my views on web 3 and blockchain with Keith Corbin, an Engineering and Product leader as well as Executive coach. This special episode is different from prior interview formats as it's more of a dialogue between me and Keith.
What I'm building now: Mink (https://m.ink) & Pickytarian (https://pickytarian.com).
