Aretacija carigrajskega župana Ekrema Imamogluja, glavnega tekmeca dolgoletnega predsednika države Recepa Tayyipa Erdogana, je Turčijo pahnila v resno politično krizo in poglobila skrbi o nazadovanju turške demokracije. Državo so zajeli protesti, odzivi evropskih voditeljev pa so znova zelo zadržani in diplomatski. Kaj zaostrovanje v Turčiji pomeni za širšo regijo (tudi Balkan), kako dogajanje razumeti v luči geostrateškega predrugačenja sveta, kako lahko ob izjemni moči turške vojske vse skupaj vpliva na vzpostavljanje nove evropske varnostne arhitekture?

»Tudi če nočemo, enostavno prilagajamo sebe. Tehnologija se ne prilagaja nam, mi se prilagajamo, svoj način življenja in dela, absolutno,« pravi prof. dr. Aleksandra Kanjuo Mrčela s Fakultete za družbene vede Univerze v Ljubljani.Ob tem profesorica pojasnjuje, da tehnologija sama po sebi ni nič, česar bi se morali bati. Vedeti pa moramo, da je tehnologija umeščena v določene odnose v družbi. Kot pravi, se torej prilagajamo temu, kar tisti, ki imajo nadzor nad tehnologijo, uredijo kot družbeno ekonomski politični sistem. Pri Založbi FDV je izšla znanstvena monografija z naslovom Digitalizacija dela in življenja. V njej 20 avtoric in avtorjev z različnih zornih kotov pretresa vpliv novih tehnologij na naš svet. O monografiji in ugotovitvah, ki jih predstavi, nam je torej več povedala redna profesorica doktorica Aleksandra Kanjuo Mrčela, sourednica monografije, ki je bila gostja v tokratni oddaji.

Donald Trump, 47. ameriški predsednik, je kmalu po volitvah potrdil najtemnejše slutnje in napovedi analitikov, da prihaja na oblast v ZDA protekcionistično naravnan politik, brez posebne afinitete do transatlantskih odnosov. Še pred današnjo inavguracijo je mednarodno skupnost razburjal z izjavami, ki nakazujejo na poslabšanje globalnih trgovinskih odnosov ter zlasti poglabljanje krize multilateralizma v mednarodnih odnosih in posledično spodnašanje ureditve sveta, dogovorjene po drugi svetovni vojni. O tem, kakšne spremembe prinaša nova administracija ekonomsko in vojaško najmočnejše države sveta pod taktirko Donalda Trumpa, na kaj mora biti pozorna Evropa ter kakšne odnose z Washingtonom si lahko obeta Slovenija v tokratnem Studiu ob 17.00. Gostje: dr. Matjaž Nahtigal, predstojnik katedre za mednarodne odnose na FDV; Roman Kirn, nekdanji veleposlanik v ZDA;; dr. Andrej Stopar, dopisnik RTV Slovenija iz ZDA.

Low float and high fully diluted valuation (FDV) coins have been a hot topic in crypto this year. Yet, understanding these coins' unrealized gains is critical for truly grasping their pricing. In this episode, Jose Macedo of Delphi Digital and Ari Paul of BlockTower Capital dive deep into metrics that help assess a coin's true value. They discuss why upcoming token unlocks may put downward pressure on the market, how token unlocks could be better structured for long-term success, and whether VCs are extracting more value than they contribute. Show highlights: Why upcoming token unlock events are creating anxiety in the crypto market The role unrealized gains play in token price volatility How certain projects manipulate circulating supply metrics to influence perceptions Tips for everyday investors to uncover accurate token information The impact of secondary market trading on anticipated token unlock events Why short-term token strategies often prevail over those focused on sustained success Jose's insights into why simple, time-based unlock models may outperform complex systems Ari's thoughts on the SEC's investigations into VCs and their parallels to pump-and-dump schemes Why many crypto projects face a bearish outlook due to pending token unlocks How the intersection of memecoins and VC involvement could shape the next market cycle Visit our website for breaking news, analysis, op-eds, articles to learn about crypto, and much more: unchainedcrypto.com Thank you to our sponsors!

Olá a todos! Os grandes entraram com tudo nos 16 avos de final da Taça de Portugal, com as goleadas de Sporting (6-0) e Benfica (7-0), mas hoje as coisas correram pior ao FC Porto, que foi eliminado pelo Moreirense, com uma derrota por 2-1. Depois de 19 eliminatórias seguidas sempre a ganhar, desde Março de 2021, como se explica a queda do FC Porto à 20ª? Analisámos este jogo, mas também os de Sporting, SC Braga e Benfica, no FDV de hoje, antes de vos apresentar os resultados das sondagens da semana e de responder à Pergunta MaderTools, acerca da centralização de direitos televisivos e do negócio do Moreirense com a TVI.

We've talked a lot about violence against women, in various forms, much of it domestic. Largely this has focussed on Australian cases, highlighting the epidemic of family and domestic violence in this country. We've seen that FDV permeates all strata of society, all cultures. And nowhere is this more starkly highlighted that in the sleepy, picturesque village of Mazan: The case of Dominique Pélicot. Behind closed doors, Pélicot enlisted strangers to rape his heavily-sedated wife over the course of a decade. This week we consider what could cause a man to do something so abhorrent to the woman he proclaims to love?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today is the day for Lava Network mainnet, bringing their incentive system of RPC providers to the modular ecosystem. There's been some question marks about the launch strategy, as it was quite different than what the community is used to. We are entering into a new era of token launches and expecting more and more experimentation at the the launch stage. In today's video, we sit down with Yair Cleper to explore the mainnet launch, highlighting how Lava's unique approach to data access will play a part in the modular eco. We'll discuss the different roles within this ecosystem, the benefits of aggregated RPC providers, how you can get involved, the token launch strategy, and what the future holds for Lava Network. Definitely a novel token launch. High float, low FDV, DEX only. We'll see how this pans out in the long-term.

We've been of the opinion that the Cosmos Hub and Ethereum rollup-centric roadmap are converging. Both of the scaling methodologies are somewhat opposites (appchains at first vs. baselayer L1 then building vertically), however they seem to be converging. The convergence of roadmaps is particularly interesting because of the challenges faced by Cosmos Zones and the need for upgrades via forking the chain. In today's episode, Andy hosted Ganesh Swamy, founder of Covalent, to discuss this convergence and more. We talked about scaling data availability in rollups with Celestia and blobs, preserving and accessing transaction data with the Ethereum wayback machine and competition between data availability solutions and Ethereum itself. Covalent emerged from a simple idea of 'pulling Ethereum transactions into Excel'. The core idea of creating a persistent, perpetual storage machine for blockchains is a result of Ganesh's extensive database engineering experience. We also discussed how this works under the hood, and why having a long-term data storage solution for blockchains is crucial. Towards the end we went on to discuss the troubles of the token economy that we are currently in. Negative sentiment, early stage investing, high FDV low float, and some of the potential solutions that we see out there. Join us for a holistic overview of some of the topics shaping the modular ecosystem going forward. Website: https://therollup.co/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1P6ZeYd..

Jose Macedo of Delphi Digital and Ari Paul of BlockTower Capital talk about why a crypto asset can have wildly different prices in the public and private markets, and how they try to figure out what it's really worth.Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pods, Fountain, Overcast, Podcast Addict, Pocket Casts, Amazon Music, or on your favorite podcast platform.The problem of low float, high fully diluted valuation (FDV) coins is one that is frequently discussed in crypto. But there's another wrinkle: investors need to understand the unrealized gains of these coins to really understand the price. In this episode, Jose Macedo of Delphi Digital and Ari Paul of BlockTower Capital explain the various metrics that reveal what a coin is really worth, why a wave of token unlocks that will be hitting the crypto markets in the next few years are not bullish, and whether there is a better way to design token unlocks for teams and insiders. Plus, they cover whether venture capitalists are extractive to crypto, whether these games with circulating supply and FDV have caused investors to turn to memecoins, and why they believe the ICO era was better for retail investors. Show highlights:Why upcoming token unlocks are creating market jittersHow the ratio of unrealized gains to market cap influences token price movements How some token projects manipulate their reported circulating supplyWhether and how everyday investors can uncover the truth about token projectsWhat secondary market trading says about the potential impact of upcoming token unlocksWhy Jose believes that the current token launch strategy, despite its flaws, is still favored by insiders and unlikely to change soonWhy some projects favor decisions that are more likely to result in short-term gains over long-term successWhy Jose believes that simple time-based token unlocks often work better than complex metrics, and how projects can balance funding with realistic success metricsWhy Ari believes the SEC's investigations into VCs for acting as securities dealers might be justified, and how these practices resemble pump-and-dump schemesWith numerous token unlocks looming, why the outlook is bearish for many projects, and what challenges they face in mitigating potential sell-offsWhy many crypto investors might end up holding the bag in the current cycle, despite plans to sell early and avoid lossesWhat the future role of VCs is in crypto, and how the influx of token unlocks and the rise of memecoins could shape the bull cycleVisit our website for breaking news, analysis, op-eds, articles to learn about crypto, and much more: unchainedcrypto.comThank you to our sponsors!PolkadotGuests:Jose Macedo, founder at Delphi LabsAri Paul, CIO of BlockTower CapitalPrevious appearances on Unchained:Ari Paul on Why Bitcoin Is a Good Value BuyAri Paul of BlockTower Capital on the Crypto Downturn and Why It Could Change DirectionLinks : High FDV and unlocks:Unchained:How ‘Fully Diluted Valuation' Can Be a Very Dangerous Metric for Crypto Markets to Rely OnWho's to Blame for the Underperformance of Low Float, High FDV Tokens?80% of Tokens on Binance Are Down Since Listing Date: SwissBorg ResearcherCobie newsletter: New launches (part 1) - private capture, phantom pricingRocknblock: Token vesting explainerCoinDesk: 'Liquid Vesting' Is Oxymoronic Blockchain Feature That Lets Early Investors Sell Without WaitingJose's thread that inspired the episodeAri's post responding to Jose's threadToken.unlocks.app: Token vesting trackerSolutions:Hack VC: Potential Solutions to Crypto's Unlock ProblemColony Lab: Early-Stage Program & Liquid VestingImran Khan's tweet on Blast https://x.com/lmrankhan/status/1806040646433522149 -Unchained Podcast is Produced by Laura Shin Media, LLC.

With ETH spot ETFs now more likely than ever, Bits + Bips hosts James Seyffart, Alex Kruger, and Joe McCann delve into the reasons behind this shift, surmising that the reversal may have come from powers above the SEC—perhaps in the Biden administration. The three hosts surmise that ETH will likely reach all-time highs, discuss how this changes their election trading strategy and ponder where there is enough institutional demand for ether ETFs. They also look at whether the potential approval could sway the US elections. Plus, they share insights into stablecoins and how they strengthen the US's political power globally, dive into the debate on low float/high FDV coins, and also take a peek at what they think could be the potential next crypto spot ETF.

I denne episoden har vi besøk av Kristoffer Moe Lundquist og Steinar Halvari Seim, to av gründeren bak Propely. Vi dykker ned i deres reise som unge gründere som startet et proptech-selskap mens de fortsatt gikk på videregående, og snakker om den raske veksten og ambisjonene om å bli størst i markedet.Vi får også møte Simen, driftssjefen i Tøyenhagen borettslag, en superbruker av Propely som har registrert over 7000 kvitterte oppgaver(!). Simen deler sine erfaringer med å bruke Propely som et FDV-verktøy i hverdagen, og hvorfor han valgte nettopp dette verktøyet.Til slutt blir vi kjent med PAI - Propely AI, den nyeste funksjonen som ble lansert på Propely-dagen i vår. Vi diskuterer hvordan denne funksjonen kan revolusjonere eiendomsforvaltning ved hjelp av kunstig intelligens.
VCs have been getting a lot of hate recently. The era of high FDV, low float launches may be coming to an end soon...or will it? In today's conversation we sat down with Mads Mathiesen, a long-time crypto researcher and now leading research for an elite crypto VC Maven11. He was writing about data availability and Celestia in 2019-2020, before anyone was really paying attention to modularity. We talk about Maven 11's big bets on modularity and why VCs are under fire in the current regime. We also talk about the evolution of crypto funding models in from the 2017 ICO craze to the structured funding models of today, the landscape has evolved dramatically. We also explore potential shifts in VC strategies to better align with the unique timelines and risks inherent in crypto projects. After that, the conversation went into the big bets that Maven 11 has placed on modularity and the key players which they invested in early. Recently, Mads put out a post about the commoditization of complements strategy which a ton of the modular parts play. We discussed this in-depth and we found a lot of commonalities in our theses as well. The Rollup Maven 11 Website: https://www.maven11.com/ Maven 11 Socials: https://twitter.com/Maven11Capital

V vsej tej zmešnjavi, polni telenovelnih obtoževanj in podtikanj, smo si naključni mimoidoči zapomnili predvsem eno stvar: "Levica ima zdaj frakcije!" Ali vsaj eno frakcijo, ki se je odcepila od telesa stranke. Končno smo si oddahnili, kajti prihodnost levičarske ideje, da ne zapišemo ideologije, je v Sloveniji zagotovljena. Kajti nič ne more biti bolj levičarskega, kot je frakcija v levi stranki. Frakcije so temelj leve ideje in če gremo v še ne tako daljno zgodovino, je bilo poglavje "Frakcijski boji v Komunistični partiji Jugoslavije" eno najtežjih med pripravo za kviz "Tito, revolucija mir …" … na katerem so, sklepamo, sodelovali mnogi pomembni slovenski levičarji in skoraj vsi pomembni slovenski desničarji. Toliko o tem. Ustanovitev frakcije je trdno vpeta v levičarsko zgodovino in je s stališča ikonografije prav tako pomembna kot podobe bledoličnih levičarjev, ki z baretkami na glavah pijejo žganico iz kavnih skodelic v vlažnih kletnih prostorih. Enostavno je frakcija temeljni del levičarske prakse, če že ne teorije, in zdaj, ko jo imamo, se lahko na levici končno posvetijo resničnim izzivom sedanjosti. Najprej k očitkom. Člani frakcije očitajo deblu stranke, da se je prodalo liberalni ideji s tem, ko v vladi zastopajo stališča kapitala in ne več idealov socializma, in da krmijo elite, namesto da bi branile proletariat. Za to so navedli kar nekaj zakonske regulative, ki je bila v zadnjem času sprejeta od trenutne koalicije; med njo podpora militarizaciji Slovenije in podpora zavarovalniško-zdravstveni zakonodaji. A frakcionaši vendarle pozabljajo, da so se v pred meseci še enotni stranki ustrelili v koleno, ko za koordinatorja niso obdržali prepoznavno in uveljavljeno ter do neke mere karizmatično osebo, temveč so stranko, sledeč logiki centralnega komiteja in kolektivnega vodstva, zaupali koordinatorici, ki javno ni tako všečna kot njen predhodnik. V Sloveniji pa volitve še vedno dobivajo izpostavljeni politiki in ne strankarski programi! Žal. Z žrtvovanjem priljubljenega koordinatorja so v Levici tako zadostili normam leve ideje, a kljub temu doživeli odcepitev, frakcijo in tovariško kritiko. A vsaj za trenutek se ustavimo ob bistvu kritik, ki so jih odpadniki naslovili na vodstvo Levice. Ker ne poznamo dinamike strankarskega življenja, seveda streljamo na slepo. Ena osnovnih kritik frakcije je ta, da je Levica v vladi obrnila hrbet proletariatu. Razumni v tem trenutku nekoliko zastriže z ušesi, saj smo prepričani, da leva frakcija o proletariatu govori kar tako – na pamet. In da ne ve natančno, kaj to proletariat sploh je. To pa trdimo zaradi preprostega dejstva, da tudi slovenski proletariat za sebe ne ve, da je proletariat. Ker če bi se slovenski proletariat zavedal svojega proletarstva, bi se politično organiziral sam od sebe in ne bi potreboval stranke, ki je namesto na delavstvu, zrastla na FDV-ju. To, kar v levici mislijo, da je proletariat, so samo potrošniki s slabšo kupno močjo in s šopom kartic za popuste v denarnici. Na drugi strani imamo meščanski tabor, ki se od proletariata razlikuje samo po tem, da lahko kadarkoli dobi potrošniški kredit. A če levica ne ve, kaj proletariat je, še ne pomeni, da ta v Sloveniji ne obstaja. Pa še kako obstaja! Proletariat danes ni zasužnjen v jeklarnah, rudnikih in pristaniščih … Proletariat se danes udejanja v prekarnem delu, v študentskem delu, v agencijskem delavstvu, v dnevnih migrantih tako v Ljubljano kot v tujino, v delu na črno, v neenakih možnostih in neenakem plačilu za enako delo – skratka v brezčutnosti, ki jo do svojih zaposlenih goji slovenski poosamosvojitveni gospodarski čudež. In ponovno imamo za naše, iz zraka potegnjene trditve, nekaj trdnih dokazov … Najprej; med ustvarjalci oddaje so taki, ki so na lastni koži skusili, kakšna sta delo in življenje, ki bi ju lahko označili kot proletarska v klasičnem smislu; pa tam nikoli niso srečali kakšnega agitatorja, ali organizatorja ali člana politične stranke Levica. In drugič, da sodobni slovenski socialisti ne vedo natančno, kaj pomeni biti proletarec in ne, kje se da katerega najti, najlepše dokazuje, da se nobeno od prej naštetih področij z vsemi temi leti parlamentarnega življenja stranke Levice ni izboljšalo. In s tem, ko se je frakcija odmaknila od kapitalu prodanega jedra Levice, so se možnosti za to zmanjšale še bolj. Kot nas uči zgodovina, bo imela frakcija trdna in načelna stališča do prej naštetih proletarskih težav, a če kaj, so prav trda stališča frakcij socialistično idejo izbrisala s planeta.

Tri mesece pred volitvami v Evropski parlament se po Evropi širijo protesti jeznih kmetov, krepi se tudi nezadovoljstvo gospodarstva zaradi visoke cene Zelenega dogovora. Vse bolj je slišati pozive k izgradnji obrambne skupnosti in vlaganju v oboroževalno industrijo. Skrbi državljanov vse spretnejše izkoriščajo populistični in ekstremistični voditelji, ki bi v zdajšnjih razmerah lahko spremenili ravnotežje političnih sil v Uniji in vplivali na evropsko agendo. Gostje: • dr. Marko Lovec, Katedra za mednarodne odnose, FDV • dr. Denis Mancevič, New Century Corporate Communications • mag. Igor Mally, državni sekretar, kabinet predsednika vlade. Vsebina je del projekta I know EU/ Tu EU 2024, ki ga sofinancira Evropska unija.
