Podcasts about airdrops

Welcome to The Chopping Block – where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Robert Leshner, and special guest Evgeny Gaevoy of Wintermute break down the biggest stories in crypto. This week: the $38M Move token dump exposes the shady side of market making, with shocking incentives that blurred the line between liquidity support and pure exit liquidity. We dig into what really happened, why major VCs looked the other way, and how the entire token launch playbook might be broken. Evgeny joins to give the market maker's perspective — and to answer the question: how many more of these sh*t shows are still lurking beneath the surface? Show highlights

How do you grow a Web3 startup without falling into the same old traps — airdrops, bots, and unsustainable hype?In this episode, I speak with Sandesh, founder of Bandit Network, who shares how they're building growth infrastructure for Web3 — combining off-chain and on-chain data, enabling sustainable campaigns, and even launching their own rollup for deeper integrations.We explore:Why airdrops and point systems often failHow meme launchpads are evolving into engagement toolsMapping Twitter usernames to wallet addressesGrowth lessons from powering campaigns for Bonk, Brave, and ShardeumIf you care about Web3 user acquisition, retention, and real community-led engagement — this one's for you.Key Timestamps[00:00:00] Introduction: Sam sets up the episode and introduces Sandesh from Bandit Network. [00:01:00] Bandit Overview: Sandesh explains what Bandit does and how his journey from AI to Web3 began. [00:04:00] Early Web3 Involvement: Sandesh shares how his AI-powered creator startup was acquired and how that led to Bandit. [00:06:00] The Problem with Growth Tools: Why airdrop tools failed and how Bandit builds Lego-like infrastructure for campaigns. [00:09:00] Trends in Growth: Why meme launchpads are evolving into community engagement tools. [00:13:00] Meme Campaign Example: How one community uses roasts and meme voting as engagement loops. [00:15:00] Airdrops vs Bots: Sandesh explains how Bandit uses tools like Proof of Humanity and Bitcoin Passport to combat sybil attacks. [00:18:00] Challenges and Monetization: Bandit's biggest challenge is staying trend-adaptable; revenue is SaaS + custom token deals. [00:21:00] What's Next: Bandit is launching a rollup protocol for mapping Web2 identities to Web3 wallets. [00:24:00] The Bigger Vision: Building a decentralized growth protocol with support from QuickNode. [00:25:00] Fundraising: Bandit is raising $3–4M in their current seed round. [00:26:00] Closing Thoughts: Sam recaps why Bandit solves a real and pressing pain point in Web3 growth.Connecthttp://bandit.network/https://x.com/OnBndithttps://www.linkedin.com/company/onbndit/https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandeshbsuvarna/https://x.com/sandeshsuvarnaDisclaimerNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

with @eddylazzarin @DarenMatsuoka @ahall_research @rhhackettWelcome to web3 with a16z. I'm Robert Hackett.Today we're talking about one of the most familiar — and most misunderstood — mechanics in crypto: the airdrop.We'll explore the history of airdrops in and outside crypto, the challenges of incentive design, and learnings from airdrops to date. We'll also answer questions like how do you avoid Sybil attacks and professional airdrop farming? Should your drop be big or small, one-time or ongoing? And what happens when AI agents enter the mix? To break it all down, we're joined by:a16z crypto's Chief Technology Officer Eddy Lazzarin;a16z crypto Data Science Partner Daren Matsuoka; anda16z crypto Research Consultant Andrew Hall, who is also a Professor of Political Economics at Stanford's Graduate School of Business.Whether you're planning a token launch, looking for token rewards, or just curious why airdrops have become such a powerful mechanism in crypto — this episode is for you. Timestamps:(0:00) introduction(1:42) what is an airdrop?(6:27) tokens vs traditional equity(8:49) incentive design challenges(15:18) origins from credit cards to crypto(17:14) Optimism airdrop case study(23:09) NFT market learnings(28:32) Sybil resistance and verifying humanity(33:04) Uniswap airdrop and beyond(36:35) AI agents and the future of airdrops(40:33) connection to performance reviews(45:30) token vesting and volatility(49:08) experimentation vs. best practices(59:20) Batesian mimicryResources:Research into how airdrops can increase user retention [Optimism Collective forum; January 2025]Effects of Optimism airdrop 2 on governance participation [a16z crypto; June 2024]One From Many: Visa and the Rise of Chaordic Organization by Dee Hock [Berrett-Koehler Publishers; October 2005]How the '9-Box' talent review system can make or break your career [Forbes; March 2024]Batesian mimicry [American Museum of Natural History; July 2023]As a reminder, none of the content should be taken as investment, business, legal, or tax advice.

with @haydenzadams @kidsuper @smc90This episode involves a special mix of guests:Hayden Adams, founder and CEO of Uniswap Labs, and inventor of the Uniswap Protocol a leader in decentralized finance (DeFi); they recently announced Unichain; andColm Dillane, the multimedia artist behind fashion brand KidSuper, CFDA award winner who has his own Warhol Factory-like creative studio and space; Dillane started out selling t-shirts in his highschool cafeteria, and then went on to present his collection at Paris Fashion week — and has also done creative campaigns for iconic brands from Louis Vuitton and Mercedes Benz to Puma and Converse...in conversation with editor in chief Sonal Chokshi. The conversation originally took place at our Founder Summit (October 2024) but is more relevant than ever as the crypto industry focuses on mainstream applications and users. It covers:industry jargon, to making technology not just more broadly available but more culturally and socially understoodthe power of naming, including the origin story behind the unicorn and Unisocks and morethe difference between marketing vs. spectaclethe power of early community and what it means to expand to new users vs "sell out”drops -- “airdrops” in crypto; drops in fashion (a la Supreme), and just product launches in generalWe also touch on some questions and issues around open source, including forking and copying -- good or bad? -- and whether a collective can actually do good design. The theme throughout is about innovating vs. stagnating -- learning from different industries and places; trying (unexpected) new things, even when there may not be a clear business case up front, and much more. As a reminder: None of the following should be taken as business, investment, legal, or tax advice; please see a16z.com/disclosures for more important information.

For EP19 of Chain Reactions, we talked to Fran, the co-founder and CEO of Superfluid, a leading streaming protocol that is completely changing the meta for how tokens are distributed for salaries, airdrops and beyond. Fran is a proper crypto OG, and as a builder in the space, was even there when Uniswap had their first airdrop. And we had an incredibly insightful and nuanced conversation around the history, present, and future of airdrops and points. tl;dr: we need to completely rethink how we frame and architect points and token distributions, and streaming tokens AFTER token launch as rewards makes a lot more sense. This is an awesome conversation for any marketer or founder trying to understand how to successfully launch a token that doesn't immediately dump and creates long-term value!

Elements of Tokenomics Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Tokenomics focuses on the supply and demand of the token in an ecosystem. Supply and demand determine the price of the token. Increasing the supply of tokens generates inflation of the price while decreasing the supply causes deflation. The demand side is determined by how the market views the token. The market assesses the potential return on investment for the token. The ability of the token to generate revenue through yield farming would increase the token's ROI. Additional utilities such as governance capabilities, access to community resources, and access to revenue streams increase the token's ROI. In some cases, pure speculation will drive the price of the token. Vesting schedules, lockups, and other tools can be used to increase the demand for the token. Airdrops can be used to establish an initial community of token holders. Tokens can be burned to increase the value of the token by increasing scarcity. The goal is to create a stable price for the token and provide incentives to encourage others to become token holders. These are the basic elements of tokenomics for managing the token supply and demand.   Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at:   Check out our other podcasts here:   For Investors check out:   For Startups check out:   For eGuides check out:   For upcoming Events, check out    For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group    Please , share, and leave a review.

The weekend didn't offer too many surprises as Bitcoin's price continued the downward trajectory of the end of last week, but we now move into a massive week for crypto. One trader said the US presidential election could send BTC flying 10% in either direction, depending on how the voting goes, with Trump thought to be the bullish outcome. Elsewhere, crypto projects are set to unlock $2.6B worth of tokens this month, Bitcoin mining bans can be a net loss for the environment, and is the 'grand finale of altcoin reckoning' near?Further reading:Bitcoin to move 10% ‘either direction' depending on US election: TraderTrump dump: Crypto liquidations hit $350M as Bitcoin drops below $69KCrypto projects set to unlock $2.6B in tokens in NovemberBitcoin mining bans may lead to ‘unintended consequences' for environment‘Grand finale of altcoin reckoning' soon, warns crypto traderRise'n'Crypto is brought to you by Cointelegraph and is hosted and produced by Robert Baggs.

Every year, the U.S. drops millions of tiny, hungry worms from planes over Central America, but it's not a prank or a bizarre experiment—it's part of an epic battle against screwworms! These worms are actually baby flies, known as screwworm larvae, that can cause terrible infections in animals by eating living flesh. So why drop them? The worms are made special in a lab so they can't reproduce, and when they mate with wild screwworms, it helps wipe out the whole screwworm population without any new eggs being laid. By doing this, scientists keep screwworms from spreading and harming livestock, pets, and wildlife in both Central America and the U.S. It's a powerful and clever way to protect animals, keep ecosystems balanced, and save millions of dollars in potential damage every year!

This week, Republican Representatives Tom Emmer and Patrick McHenry sent a letter pressing SEC Chair Gary Gensler for clarity on how securities laws apply to airdrops. With billions of dollars worth of tokens airdropped this year alone, projects need clarity more than ever.  In this episode, Amanda Tuminelli, Chief Legal Officer of the DeFi Education Fund, dissects the SEC's stance on airdrops, why her organization believes the SEC has stretched the legal definition of “compensation” too far, and what Congress might ask Gensler in his upcoming hearing. Plus, she talks about how the SEC “regrets” any confusion it caused for using the term “crypto assets securities,” since the agency now admits that tokens themselves are not securities.   Show highlights: Why Amanda believes the SEC's position on airdrops doesn't make sense Why the DeFi Education Fund sued the SEC over the BEBA airdrop  How the SEC's position on airdrops has been clear for a while, but is “wrong” according to Amanda Her take on users bypassing the geographic restrictions to claim airdrops in the U.S. How and why the SEC has changed its language around “crypto assets securities” How the SEC's new position on crypto assets implicating securities laws seems to rest on the “embodiment” theory Why Amanda believes the Supreme Court or Congress may be needed to step in What Amanda expects Congress to question Gary Gensler about in the hearing next week Amanda's takeaways from the first Congressional DeFi hearing last week How she expects the presidential election will impact the regulatory landscape in the U.S. Visit our website for breaking news, analysis, op-eds, articles to learn about crypto, and much more: unchainedcrypto.com Thank you to our sponsors!

Drug cartels employ a complex and sophisticated logistical network to move drugs across international borders. This network includes several key components:1. Production and PackagingCocaine: Produced in the Andean region (Colombia, Peru, Bolivia) from coca plants, refined into cocaine hydrochloride, and packaged in innovative ways to avoid detection.Heroin: Derived from opium poppies in Mexico and Afghanistan, processed into heroin, and often hidden in compressed bricks or disguised in other substances.Methamphetamine: Manufactured in large-scale "super labs" in Mexico, using precursor chemicals smuggled from countries like China and India.Synthetic Drugs: Includes fentanyl and ecstasy, produced in clandestine labs using chemicals from China, often disguised as prescription drugs or other products.2. Transportation NetworksLand Routes: Drugs are moved through Central America and Mexico using convoys, hidden compartments in vehicles, and bribed officials. Cartels often use legitimate businesses as fronts for smuggling operations.Maritime Routes: Cartels utilize narco-submarines, cargo ships, fishing vessels, and go-fast boats to transport drugs across oceans, often transferring them at sea to avoid detection.Air Routes: Private jets, light aircraft, and commercial airlines are used, with drugs hidden in luggage, body cavities, or the aircraft structure. Airdrops in remote areas are also common.Tunnels: Sophisticated cross-border tunnels equipped with lighting and ventilation are dug under the U.S.-Mexico border, allowing drugs to bypass checkpoints.3. Corruption and BriberyLaw Enforcement: Cartels bribe police, customs officials, and military personnel to ignore or facilitate drug shipments. Corruption extends to turning law enforcement officers into cartel operatives.Political Corruption: High-level bribery of politicians ensures protection from prosecution and favorable policy decisions.Corporate Corruption: Legitimate businesses are infiltrated or co-opted to facilitate smuggling and money laundering.4. Distribution and Money LaunderingDistribution Networks: Drugs are stored in safe houses and distributed through local gangs or independent distribution cells in major cities.Money Laundering: Cartels use shell companies, trade-based money laundering, real estate investments, and cryptocurrencies to clean illicit profits and reintegrate them into the legal economy.5. Technology and InnovationDrones: Used for surveillance and transporting small drug shipments across borders.Cryptocurrency: Facilitates anonymous transactions and money laundering.Encrypted Communication: Custom encryption tools and devices protect cartel communications from law enforcement.Counter-Surveillance: Use of lookouts, advanced technology, and signal jamming to evade or disrupt law enforcement operations.In this episode, we take a look behind the curtain at the logistics behind transnational criminal groups.(commercial at 10:26)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
