Podcast appearances and mentions of David Hoffman

Mental shortcuts, such as bias, are essential to our survival. Understanding that unconscious bias is a mental shortcut makes it easier to examine it in ourselves, instead of simply rejecting the idea that we might harbor it. If it's a moral failing, well, clearly, I don't want to admit that possibility about myself.  If we are willing to look at ourselves, we can dig into what unconscious biases we may have. We can consider where they started. Without punishing judgment of ourselves or our early influences.  My most recent guest, David Hoffman, described the article he had written with Helen Winter, called “Follow the Science: Proven Strategies for Reducing Unconscious Bias.” You can find it here: https://blc.law/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Follow-the-Science-Proven-Strategies-for-Reducing-Unconscious-Bias-Final-2023-04-15.pdf Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

In Episode 316 of The Block Runner Podcast, hosts William and I-man give an honest post-mortem on the first NAT.fun launch, break down why gold and AI equities are outrunning Bitcoin in this bear-market stretch, and walk through the plan for a second launch with healthier token distribution. Disclosure: William and I-man are founders of NAT.fun and hold NAT tokens. All analysis in this episode reflects their perspective as participants in the ecosystem. Key topics: Bear-market sentiment, round three: gold outrunning Bitcoin, Mark Cuban turning bearish, and David Hoffman exiting ETH, plus why the feeling of a market top keeps getting worse even as prices stay historically high The AI and equities bubble: Anthropic's revenue versus its trillion-dollar valuation, Jensen Huang's argument for growing GDP with AI and robots, and Mag 7 stocks versus Bitcoin in a market where attention, not fundamentals, sets the price Attention markets everywhere: gambling apps, Pokemon cards, and conspiracy and alien mania as symptoms of where speculative dopamine has migrated away from crypto The NAT.fun launch post-mortem: the first token's broken distribution (ten holders, one wallet holding around 80 percent, graduation in roughly ten minutes), why that makes a credible Vibathon impossible, and the second rocket plan with a higher graduation threshold for better NFT distribution Product direction: a tour of the Vibe Studio and the tarot-card creator example, integrating vibe creation into the launch flow, the Breaking Bad themed launch video breakdown, and an open letter to Foundry on Bitcoin's declining security budget and NAT Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!

De Ethereumgemeenschap kreeg deze week iets te verwerken. David Hoffman, een van de gezichten van de podcast Bankless en jarenlang een van de luidste pleitbezorgers van het netwerk, maakte bekend dat hij al zijn ether heeft verkocht. Zijn twijfel gaat niet over Ethereum zelf, maar over de munt. Dat verschil is belangrijk. Ethereum is het netwerk waarop applicaties, layer twee netwerken, stablecoins en getokeniseerde bezittingen draaien. Ether is het bijbehorende token. Hoffman blijft overtuigd van het netwerk, maar denkt dat de waarde daarvan vooral terechtkomt bij die applicaties en lagen eromheen, en veel minder bij de munt. De these dat ether geld zou worden is volgens hem niet mislukt, maar simpelweg uitgewerkt. Vrijwel tegelijk kwam medeoprichter Vitalik Buterin met een lange beschouwing over de koers van het project. Zijn stelling: de Ethereum Foundation moet een kleiner schip worden. Minder breedte, meer focus op de kern. Buterin wil terug naar de basiswaarden, die hij samenvat als censuurbestendigheid, openheid, privacy en veiligheid. De stichting gaat ook minder ether verkopen, en zijn eigen invloed neemt verder af, schrijft hij, wat hij naar eigen zeggen prima vindt. Dat alles speelt tegen de achtergrond van een reeks vertrekkende onderzoekers bij de stichting. We vragen ons af of beleggers in ether hier iets aan hebben, en of er überhaupt een brede consensus is over waar het heen moet. De bitcoinkoers zakte verder naar zo'n 69.000 dollar, terwijl we twee weken geleden nog op 80.000 stonden. Dat terwijl op de beurzen de grote indexen het ene na het andere record breken. Waarom volgt bitcoin die trend niet, en wat heeft de markt nodig om weer op te veren? Tot slot een blik op tokenisatie. Volgens een rapport van Citi kan de markt voor getokeniseerde beleggingen groeien van 17 miljard naar 5,5 biljoen dollar in 2030. Grote beurzen werken er volop aan. We bespreken wat getokeniseerde beleggingen precies zijn, wat het betekent voor de machtsconcentratie in de financiële wereld en hoe je er als belegger op kunt inspelen. De transitie gaat niet vanzelf: de Amerikaanse toezichthouder SEC stelde onlangs een regeling voor getokeniseerde aandelen uit nadat de beurzen in verzet kwamen. De vraag is of Europa de Amerikaanse ontwikkeling gaat volgen, en of Europese spelers dat aankunnen. Co-host is Bert Slagter. Over de podcast Cryptocurrency are here to stay. In deze wekelijkse podcast gidst Daniel Mol je door het belangrijkste cryptonieuws, langs hypes en trends, voor- en tegenstanders en winst en verlies. In het A-deel bespreken we het laatste nieuws en in het B-deel gaan we in gesprek met een gast. Van cypherpunkpioneers tot grootbanken die aan de haal gaan met stablecoins, van Bitcoin tot Ethereum tot CBDC's. Alles passeert de revue. Reageren?

In this video, I dive into David Hoffman's recent decision to sell his ETH and explore the reasoning behind his shifting thesis. For a prominent figure in the Ethereum community to step back is a major signal, and we're breaking down whether the "ETH is money" dream has hit its limit.I also discuss the fundamental differences between utility tokens and Bitcoin, the problem of value accrual, and why I believe the decentralized monetary network of Bitcoin remains the only true innovation in the space.Why I sold my ETH articlehttps://x.com/TrustlessState/status/2059371247163613489An investor's take on Cryptoassetshttps://hostingfilesonline.co.uk/An%20Investor's%20Take%20on%20Cryptoassets%20v6.pdfBook a 1|1 Bitcoin Consulting call with mehttps://pathtobitcoin.xyz/Join my Bitcoin Learning Community & and access Free Courseshttps://www.skool.com/the-bitcoin-masters-4115/Where I buy Bitcoin (Free BTC & Non-KYC options)https://bitcoinwell.com/referral/bitcoinnotcrypto15% Stampseed Titanium Seed plates (BEST WAY TO STORE BTC PRIVATE KEYS)https://www.stampseed.com/USE CODE : BTCNOTCRYPTO15Get a Coldcard Hardware wallet herehttps://store.coinkite.com/promo/169FA71FECC4928F725D5% off Start9 servers for plug & play Bitcoin NodesCODE: BNC5https://store.start9.com/Umbrel home for a Bitcoin node and home serverhttps://a.umbrel.com/hodl/umbrel-homeAffordable Privacy Phones & deviceshttps://www.mark37.com/ref/BNC/5% off using code : BNCBuy a Bitforge or Bitaxe here!https://dtvelectronics.com/store/?aff=22Use code hodl for 10% offFree Open Source Bitcoin and Investment tracking toolshttps://plebtools.com/Become a Member of the Channel, Get exclusive content, and livestream playbackhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2aM2gVVEHTu0pfE1ZyA0BQ/joinFollow Rajat, Jor, and I's new show togetherhttps://www.youtube.com/@MapleBitcoinJoin our Communityhttps://www.skool.com/maplebitcoinListen to this as a podcasthttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitcoinnotcryptoFollow me on Nostrnpub1zqm9zant0rxf49wfgw8pt5h0j50cetfes6hwa73u7sxstlzcsz8qh6x9fsFollow on Twitter/Xhttps://x.com/forrestHODLDonate to the show herehttps://coinos.io/BNCVFVSome of the above links may be Affiliate links that support this show at no extra cost to you.

Ethereum's midlife crisis hits the podcast as ex-Bankless and ConsenSys insiders unpack ETH's talent exodus, identity spiral, "Microsoft" future, EF shake-ups, and the Solana contender play-all with spicy takes on airdrops, real dev stats, and blockchain adoption drama. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week, it's an Ethereum apostasy spectacular: we're joined by David Hoffman and Max Resnick, who hit the confessional booth to explain why they've left the church of Ethereum.  We kick off with David's viral "ETH is money" post-mortem: why he finally sold, and whether ETH can escape its spot on the yield farm for good. Max jumps in with an OG technologist's view on EF's internal struggles, talent flight, and the move-slow, break-nothing philosophy now gripping Ethereum's core. Is the EF just ossifying—or is it devolving into the "Microsoft of crypto"? From there, the hosts dissect the "second foundation" meme, why Twitter doomers might not matter for the ETH price, and whether Solana has stolen the next generation of devs. Max throws down on Solana's quantum future while the group takes barstool shots at metrics, narratives, and the never-ending "Ethereum is for boomers" debate. Whether you're a ride-or-die Etherean or just here for the schadenfreude, let's get into it.

Het sentiment in crypto is volgens sommige metingen het slechtste in een decennium, maar Strategy koopt ondertussen gewoon door: na een schulddeal van $1,5 miljard staat de teller op 843.738 BTC. We bespreken ook de American Reserve Modernization Act van Republikein Begich, de uitgestelde proeftuin voor on-chain aandelen en de ECB die weinig voelt voor succesvolle euro-stablecoins. Verder gaat het over Trumps harde lijn richting de cryptosector, de koers van de Ethereum Foundation en waarom Bankless-host David Hoffman zijn ETH verkocht.

In this episode of C-Suite Perspectives, host Steve Odland sits down with David Hoffman, Senior Advisor and China Center Leader at The Conference Board, to unpack what's really happening on the ground.  Fresh from a three-week visit to Beijing and Shanghai, David shares a nuanced view of a market in transition: slower growth, ongoing real estate challenges, and a policy environment that is becoming less market driven. Yet, despite these headwinds, China continues to offer unmatched scale, a deeply capable supply chain, and increasingly rapid innovation cycles that make it indispensable for companies competing globally.  The conversation also explores the rising strength of Chinese competitors, whose gains in design, quality, and cost are reshaping industries worldwide. Against a backdrop of geopolitical tension and trade frictions, companies are adapting through "China for China" strategies: localizing operations to build resilience while navigating a more fragmented global landscape.  For more from The Conference Board:  All China Center Research  China Economy Watch  China Consumption Quarterly Roundup 

Crypto insiders debate the Ethereum Foundation's new “CROPS” mandate: is the EF losing touch with builders, why does Solana keep pulling startups away, and what will it actually take for Ethereum to stay ahead? Expect a candid conversation on governance, comms, and crypto culture wars. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week we've got plenty of firepower with special guests Taylor Monahan (formerly of MetaMask, now a security sensei) and Bankless impresario David Hoffman. The crew digs into the Ethereum Foundation's freshly dropped “CROPS” manifesto — a 38-page PDF full of cypherpunk values, new acronyms, and debate fuel. What does it really say about where Ethereum is headed? Is EF finally embracing “sanctuary tech,” or just giving startups another reason to choose Solana? Who deserves credit for Ethereum's growth: the Foundation, the community, or the market? Expect sharp takes on EF's endless comms problems, why L2s aren't a cure-all, and whether crypto culture matters as much as the tech. It's a spicy, insider-heavy episode — so grab your popcorn and dive in.

Crypto is maturing while attention moves elsewhere. In this Weekly Rollup, David Hoffman and Anthony Sassano break down silver, gold, and the S&P hitting new highs, the Aave civil war over control and fees, Uniswap's unification win, a new pro crypto CFTC chair, and why quantum computing may be Bitcoin's biggest long term risk. --- BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS:

David Hoffman sits down with Mike Ippolito to unpack why 2025 felt brutal despite new all-time highs and why that tension matters for 2026. They argue crypto is entering its “2002 internet” phase, where speculation fades, fundamentals matter, and consolidation accelerates. The conversation covers why Ethereum may see a renaissance, why Bitcoin sentiment could struggle, how prediction markets and equity perps actually play out, and what builders and investors should focus on as crypto matures from hype into real value creation. ------

One of the most complex medical, ethical, moral, and religious questions of our era is that of physician-assisted suicide—also known as Medical Aid in Dying, or MAID. Eleven U.S. states and Washington, D.C. have legalized some form of MAID for terminally ill patients. And New York might join them. Over the summer, a Medical Aid in Dying Act passed New York's state legislature. It is now sitting on Governor Kathy Hochul's desk as she decides whether to sign it into law. Under the proposed New York bill, terminally ill adults with a prognosis of six months or less to live would be able to access a prescribed, self-administered life-ending medication. Supporters argue that this is a compassionate option—one that can relieve people of immense pain and suffering, allowing patients to choose when and where they die, and to do so surrounded by loved ones. Opponents see this as a violation of physicians' fundamental oath to do no harm. They also worry that while access may begin narrowly, it could expand over time to include people seeking death for reasons other than terminal illness—such as mental suffering or simply a desire to stop living. Cases like this have already occurred in Belgium, the Netherlands, Canada, and Switzerland. Rafaela Siewert sat down with two experts who see this topic very differently for a heated debate. David Hoffman is a healthcare attorney, clinical ethicist, and professor of bioethics at Columbia University. He argues that hypothetical future abuses of MAID shouldn't outweigh the needs of terminal patients who need this option now. Dr. Lydia Dugdale is a physician, medical ethicist, and professor of medicine at Columbia University. In her view, legalizing this practice of physician-assisted suicide risks undermining the responsibilities of governments, medical systems, and families to care for the mentally ill, the poor, and the physically disabled. And she fears that the potential for excessively expanded access over time is too great. We are among the many Americans who do not know what the right answer is. We see both sides—which is why grappling with the nuances of this subject is so important. This is a debate you won't want to miss. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In today's episode, I chat with David Hoffman, a lawyer, mediator, and a founding member of Boston Law Collaborative. David was named "Lawyer of the Year" in Boston, and he even teaches at Harvard! I love how he's using IFS to help people with conflict. We talk about how IFS has shifted his focus from getting people to settle, to helping them make Self-led choices. We discuss: How does a lawyer and mediator bring the language of parts into a legal setting? What is the "reasonable reason" behind "unreasonable behavior" in conflict? How can we make decisions from a place of "Self-led" wisdom rather than from our "gladiator parts?" How can simply naming a part change the dynamic of a conversation? David shares an example of how saying "there's a greedy part" shifted a negotiation for the better. How does the IFS model help us understand ambivalence and the "negotiation within" that happens before we even enter a conflict? "There's something we can do here to enable people to manage their conflicts more successfully and to be less fearful and less hateful in the world." —David Hoffman I absolutely loved getting to know David and I'm so glad he's bringing the IFS model to a new audience. He's also offering a new six-week IFS training for lawyers and mediators this fall through the IFS Institute with guest appearances by Dick Schwartz, Mke Elkin, and Fatimah Finney. Episode Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by the Internal Family Systems institute. Join renowned attorney and mediator David Hoffman for a six-week live workshop starting this October. Explore how the IFS model can support lawyers, mediators, and conflict professionals to lead with more clarity, compassion, and Self — with special guest appearances by Dick Schwartz, Mike Elkin, and Fatimah Finney, this program offers practical tools for navigating client engagement, negotiation, and ethical decision-making.
