YC's Nemil Dalal joins to explain why he's never been more bullish as BitMEX winds down after 11 years, whether every failed crypto idea (TCRs, DAOs, creator coins) eventually works, why crypto is really about money, Base's consumer mea culpa, on-chain reputation and credit, and who pays in the x402 AI-agent era. 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 they're joined by Nemil Dalal, Visiting Partner at Y Combinator and ex-Coinbase, where he led USDC and the Coinbase Developer Platform. He's here to explain why, with exchanges winding down left and right, he's somehow never been more bullish. The crew digs into the great contrast of the moment: BitMEX shutting down after 11 years (plus BitMart, Movement Labs, Balancer Labs) while the plumbing quietly prints, and whether Imran's viral 'everything that failed will eventually work' thesis is genius or toxic positivity. From there it's the question of whether crypto is really only about money (Jesse's Base mea culpa included), a war-memories tour through TCRs, on-chain reputation and why pure on-chain credit keeps faceplanting, and finally who actually pays in the x402 AI-agent era, and whether decentralization even survives contact with Google-shaped gravity. Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pods, Fountain, Podcast Addict, Pocket Casts, Amazon Music, or on your favorite podcast platform. Show highlights

Grok says: “In this episode of Randumb Thoughts, Darren dives headfirst into DIGG Juice — the flashy new influencer-ranking system from Kevin Rose's DI.GG reboot that's already doomed to fail. From there, it's full throttle: Donald Trump touching down in China with 17 powerhouse CEOs (Elon, Tim Cook, Jensen Huang & more) on a massive high-stakes gamble that could reshape U.S.-China trade, slash oil prices, and kneecap Iran in one clever move. Darren also breaks down the class-action lawsuit claiming Hisense smart TVs are straight-up spying on American living rooms, shares hardcore privacy hacks every listener should know, and delivers a savage rant on a Michigan judge who told a groom who just ran over his best friend on his wedding night: “I believe you are not a criminal… you are, however, a killer.” Packed with sharp opinions, wild stories, and zero filter — Episode 362 is classic Randumb Thoughts.

Welcome to Hot Topics! In this episode, host Gabrielle Crichlow welcomes guest John Diggs, a renowned mentor and the creator of the "I Am Mind Map" system. Together, they explore the concept of mind maps, discussing their definition, purpose, and practical applications in personal development.Join them as they break down mind mapping, emphasizing its role as a visual representation of thoughts that helps organize and clarify ideas. John shares his expertise on the benefits of mind maps, highlighting how they can reduce mental clutter, enhance decision-making, and provide clarity in both personal and professional contexts.Throughout the conversation, Gabrielle and John delve into the differences between mind maps and vision boards. While vision boards serve as inspirational collages that visually represent goals and dreams, mind maps are dynamic tools that allow for a deeper exploration of thoughts and ideas. Vision boards typically focus on end results, using images and words to evoke feelings and aspirations. In contrast, mind maps facilitate a more structured approach, enabling individuals to break down their goals into actionable steps and organize their thoughts logically. This adaptability makes mind maps particularly effective for planning, brainstorming, and problem-solving, allowing for continuous updates as goals evolve.As the episode concludes, Gabrielle and John inspire you to take action by utilizing mind mapping techniques in your own life. Discover how this transformative tool can unlock your potential, enhance your creativity, and help you visualize your path to success.

Nearly two years ago, Apple showed off what an AI-powered Siri might do. That Siri never materialized, but thanks to a deal with Google for its Gemini tech, it might finally have a chance to work. David and Nilay discuss the ins and outs of the deal, and what it might mean for both Apple's and Google's ambitions in AI. (They also talk about the onslaught of new lawsuits from publishers related to Google's adtech antitrust case, including from our parent company Vox Media. Disclosure is our brand.) After that, they talk about Grok's horrific deepfake problem on X, and why everyone involved deserves the blame. Then it's time to pour one out for VR and the metaverse, which is losing steam as Meta loses interest and continues to pivot to AI. RIP Supernatural, a surprise hit of an exercise app! Finally, in the lightning round, it's time for Brendan Carr is a Dummy, the latest Paramount / Warner / Netflix drama, the Trump Phone, and the Digg reboot.
