Friday Apr 14, 2023
Welcome to the Crypto Sapiens podcast!
In this episode, we explore the origins and stories of some of the most innovative and visionary Web3 founders including Chris Castig of Console, Evin of Disco, Dan Romero of Farcaster, Perchy of Chippi NFT, Alex Salnikov of Rarible and Frogmonkee. In this episode, we'll take a deep dive into the personal and professional backgrounds of these trailblazers, and discover how their experiences shaped their journey towards building decentralized technologies.
As the saying goes, "every giant has beginnings," and the Web3 movement is no exception. The founders of Web3 are a diverse group of individuals who come from different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. However, what they all share is a vision for a decentralized future that empowers individuals, rather than centralized institutions.
Before diving into the world of Web3, many of these founders had already made significant contributions to various industries, such as finance, technology, and academia. Their experiences and expertise in these fields helped shape their understanding of the limitations of centralized systems, and the potential of decentralized technology.
Through their stories, we'll discover the pivotal moments that led these founders to explore decentralized technology, and how they began to envision a future that was built on Web3 principles. We'll explore their personal and professional journeys, and how their backgrounds and experiences have helped shape their vision for a more decentralized world.

What Inspires Web3 Founders and Builders
Saturday Mar 11, 2023
Saturday Mar 11, 2023
This episode features snippets of inspiration as we explore what inspired today's builders and leaders of web3 and web3 communities during their crypto journey and what motivates these pioneers to build innovative products and services in the rapidly evolving world of decentralized technology.
Dan Romero reflects on his journey and how the internet provided an ungated space to create and publish content while growing an audience for minimal money or effort.
Lukas shares how the vibrant and dynamic community on Crypto Twitter, where ideas are shared and debated in real time, inspired how this leads to new collaborations and innovations.
Mike McGuiness, Chris Castig, and David Phelps are all inspired by the social visionary Balaji Srinivasan's transparent work on the Network State. Along with his revolutionary ideas of the impact crypto will have in the future of society.
Vikram shares his vision of not living with regrets and how hearing years previously from Jeff Bezos has motivated him in everything that he has done.
Zach Anderson shared being inspired by thinkers that work to open up different paradigms and systems.
Alex Salnikov shares the powerful impact Vitalik Buterin had on his journey and how reading Ethereum Whitepaper and the revolutionary foundation it set for decentralized finance and web3 technology.
Perchy shares how friends have directly influenced his journey, leading him to where he is today.
David Phelps also shares how creating community relationships impacted his journey, noting how deep dives into economics, economic theory, and macroeconomics not only inspired a realization of the decline of US Power and the decline in the US dollar but built the foundation for friendship. Friendships flourished over debates on the next global order, paving the path down the rabbit hole. This particular trip down the rabbit hole not only provoked higher level questions like, What if the next global empire isn't a psychical nation-state? What if the internet is the next Global state? But it also formed a lifelong friendship in the process.
Alex Poon reflects on his experience with the alliance accelerator and the generosity and understanding within his network.
Erin McMullen reflects on women that she has met while creating a welcoming space for female and those that identify as non-binary.
Philip Silva notes Bitcoin and our very own Humpty Calderon as inspiration throughout his journey.

In this episode of Crypto Sapiens, host Humpty Calderon delves into the topic of onboarding new contributors into decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) with Vikram, the Co-founder and CEO of DAOLens. The conversation begins with Humpty expressing his concerns about the complex and often convoluted process of joining a DAO, which can involve a series of challenging steps, from buying a token and gaining access to private servers on Discord, to navigating through various channels and introducing oneself to strangers.
Vikram highlights the importance of creating a welcoming onboarding journey for new members, which sets them up for success and ensures that they can contribute in a meaningful way to the DAO. He proposes the idea of composable experiences, which are designed to be flexible and allow members to unlock new experiences as they earn reputation. Vikram suggests that DAOs could create unique experiences by building a protocol that enables members to "build their own journeys" and contribute in a way that suits them best.
Humpty adds to the conversation by sharing a recent example of a DAO that launched its own app, which provides a more unified experience for its members. He notes that the next step would be to create these apps on a base protocol, to make these experiences more accessible and interoperable across various DAOs.
Overall, this episode of Crypto Sapiens offers valuable insights on how DAOs can create a more inclusive and engaging experience for their members. The discussion explores the potential of composable experiences and base protocols, highlighting the need to make the onboarding journey as simple and welcoming as possible. Whether you are a seasoned crypto enthusiast or new to the world of DAOs, this episode is sure to provide valuable insights into the future of decentralized organizations.

Chippi NFT | Signaling Commitment in Digital Communities with Perchy
Friday Feb 10, 2023
Friday Feb 10, 2023
Today we are chatting with Perchy, Founder and creator of Chippi NFTs.
We look at the project's genesis in Season 0 of Bankless DAO. And learn that this initiative was Perchy's way of documenting his journey at Bankless DAO.
This is a crucial takeaway because it shows how any contribution to a DAO, whether small or personal, can take a life of its own and build a strong community around it.
Chippis are non-generative NFTs limited to 500 pieces tied together by an adorable and familiar character. Every Chippi is hand drawn by Perchy.
In our conversation, we also touch on building a brand, signaling your commitment to a community, and creating a layered metaverse with your NFTs.
To learn more about Perchy and Chippi, you can follow them on Twitter @TheFutureisDAO1 and @chippiNFT, respectively.
