1 US-Dollar = 1 Token. Ohne Ausnahme! Genau das ist die Idee hinter Stablecoins. Mag erstmal nicht besonders spektakulär klingen, ist aber der Musterknabe unter den Web3-Produkten mit Product-Market-Fit. Denn mittlerweile sind über 200 Milliarden US-Dollar an Stablecoins im Umlauf – was sich für einige Firmen dahinter als Lizenz zum Geld drucken entpuppt hat. Einer, der diesen Markt von Grund auf neu denkt, ist Paul Faecks, Gründer von Plasma. In der finalen Folge der zweiten Staffel unserer Founder Series spricht er mit Julius Nagel und Florian Adomeit darüber, warum es eine eigene Blockchain für Stablecoins braucht, welche Rolle Bitcoin dabei spielt – und wieso er glaubt, dass Circle in der Klemme steckt, Tether das bessere Business hat und PayPals Stablecoin-Experiment gescheitert ist. Ganz nebenbei plaudert Paul aus dem Nähkästchen, wie er den Sprung vom Poker-Player zum Krypto-Gründer geschafft hat – und blickt zurück auf seine klügsten und dümmsten Trades.

Ähnlich wie Flugsuchmaschinen aggregiert das Protokoll die Liquidität von Uniswap, Balancer & Co., während Solver-Netzwerke im Hintergrund um den besten Preis für dich kämpfen. Great Deal – dachte sich offenbar auch der Clan rund um Tariff-Trumps World Liberty Finance, der seine Trades inzwischen fast ausschließlich über CowSwap abwickelt. Und sie sind nicht allein: Das Gnosis-Spinoff kommt mittlerweile auf über 8 Milliarden US-Dollar Handelsvolumen. Pro Monat! Über die Anfänge dieser spektakulären Reise spricht CowSwap-Gründerin Anna George in dieser Folge der Founder Series von Alles Coin, Nichts Muss.

„Die Zukunft wird Multi-Chain sein!“ – das war Philipp Zentner bereits 2021 klar, als er seine erste Wallet installierte. Das Problem dabei? Liquidität, Assets und Tools fragmentieren. Die Lösung: LI.FI – eine Art Skyscanner für Blockchains, das den besten Weg für Asset-Transfers über verschiedene Chains findet. Kommt euch bekannt vor?

Die Blockchain mag die Welt revolutionieren, kommt allerdings mit einem fetten Haken: Alles auf ihr ist öffentlich – egal ob Zockereien auf Polymarket, DAO-Payrolls oder sensible Unternehmensdaten. Für viele Corporates oder privatsphäresensible Akteure könnte das genau der Partypooper sein, der Mainstream-Adoption verhindert. Das hat sich auch Yannik Schrade gedacht – und mit Arcium eine Lösung gebaut, die Datenschutz ohne Vertrauensanforderung, rein durch Mathematik und Kryptografie ermöglicht. Was dabei rauskam, ist weit mehr als ein Privacy-Tool: Yannik hat – fast aus Versehen – die Grundlagen für einen verschlüsselten Supercomputer auf der Blockchain geschaffen. Wie das funktioniert, erklärt er Julius Nagel und Florian Adomeit in dieser Folge der Founder Series von Alles Coin, Nichts Muss. Gemeinsam sprechen sie darüber, wie man damit Knete verdient, warum Arcium bewusst nicht auf eine eigene Blockchain setzt – und wie ein 24-Jähriger, dem selbst seine Eltern vom Jurastudium abrieten, eine der erfolgreichsten iPad-Apps Europas baute.

Ethereum steckt im Innovator's Dilemma. Die Blockchain ist langsam, Blockspace begrenzt – und um zu skalieren, braucht es Rollups. Doch je mehr Aktivität diese vom Mainnet absaugen, desto mehr Gebühren gehen Ethereum flöten. Kein Wunder also, dass Ethereum die eigene Cashcow nur mit angezogener Handbremse auf die Schlachtbank zu führen scheint. Zum Glück gibt's Menschen wie Hilmar Orth. Wer die erste Founder Series gehört hat, weiß: Gelato baut seit Jahren am AWS fürs Web3. Jetzt gehen sie noch einen Schritt weiter – mit Blockchain-as-a-Service.

Ep 17 Founder Series Pt 2: A 20-Year Journey to Make Motion Preservation the New Standard in Spine, Scott Hodges, DO   In Part 2 of our Founder Series, co-hosts Courtney Schutze and Brady Riesgraf sit down with fellowship-trained, orthopedic spine surgeon Dr. Scott Hodges. Well known by several titles, including Medical Director at 3Spine, co-inventor of MOTUS, and leading advocate for motion preservation in spine surgery, Dr. Hodges shares his behind-the-scenes journey to bringing motion preservation to the forefront of spine care. His enthralling story includes the more than 20-year process of bringing a novel spine implant to market- from initial sketch drawings and early prototypes to clinical trials in South Africa and the U.S.    Dr. Hodges' journey began at Southern Adventist University in his current hometown of Chattanooga, Tennessee, followed by medical school at Kansas City University, residency at Ohio University, and his fellowship in spine surgery at Loyola University Chicago School of Medicine. He went on to build a thriving surgical practice in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and it was here that the idea to improve upon the current standard of care for spine patients was formed and flourished.   Dissatisfied with the available technologies and long-term patient outcomes in spine, Dr. Hodges dedicated his career to creating a solution. With an aim for creating a better treatment for spine surgery patients, Dr. Hodges partnered with Dr. Craig Humphreys to co-develop MOTUS, the first total joint replacement for the lumbar spine. Their goal was to create an implant that restored function in the lumbar spine and the entire kinetic chain, without sacrificing the body's natural motion. With this new endeavor, Dr. Hodges shifted his focus entirely to bringing these solutions to patients, navigating the complex world of medical device development, and leading surgeon education for this novel approach to spine care.   In this episode, you'll learn: The road to innovation: What it takes to develop, refine, and clinically validate a motion-preserving device. What's next for spine surgery: How motion preservation, total joint replacement, facet replacements, and endoscopic techniques are shaping the future of spine care for patients struggling with chronic leg and/or back pain. The origins of MOTUS: How a simple concept became the first lumbar total joint replacement. Patient demand as a driver of care: How patient demand is driving new technologies to the forefront of surgical care. The importance of the kinetic chain: Why motion in all areas of the body is important and how the different joints in the body - knees, hips, ankles, and spine - work together to allow the body to properly function. Why training & education matter: How surgeon training and patient education play a pivotal role in the adoption and access of new technologies for spine care.   This episode, recorded between the 3Spine headquarters in Chattanooga, TN and the world-renowned MERI Lab in Memphis, takes you inside the decades-long journey of bringing a new spine device to market, from the first clinical cases in South Africa to FDA trials in the U.S. As a pioneer, innovator, teacher, and leader, Dr. Hodges shares his compelling story of how data, surgeon training, and patient demand for motion preserving devices are driving the future of spine surgery.   This episode is a must-watch for spine surgeons, medical innovators, and anyone interested in the future of spine surgery and the journey of bringing a new device to the market.   Missed Part 1? Watch our interview with Dr. Craig Humphreys for the full Founder Series!    Note: The MOTUS device is currently in the data collection phase of a US IDE FDA Trial and is not available for commercial use at the time of recording.

Ep 16 Founder Series Pt 1: A Lifetime of Spine Surgery, Motion Advocacy & Giving Back, Craig Humphreys, MD   In this first episode of our two-part Founder Series, co-hosts Courtney Schutze and Brady Riesgraf sit down with Dr. Craig Humphreys, a board-certified orthopedic spine surgeon, innovator, and pioneer in spine surgery, to discuss the evolution of motion preservation and the rewarding journey behind MOTUS—the first lumbar total joint replacement for the low back. From his early career in Chattanooga, Tennessee, to building a transformative spine practice in Soldotna, Alaska, Dr. Humphreys shares the journey of how he co-developed MOTUS (formerly the Kenai Device) with Dr. Scott Hodges. Their story began as a mission to offer patients a motion-preserving alternative to spinal fusion and culminated in the creation of a novel device aimed at restoring natural balance, maintaining motion, and preserving adjacent spinal levels.    For this episode, we had the opportunity to travel to Soldotna, Alaska and sit down with Dr. Humphreys in his home, situated on the Kenai River—the very place that inspired the original Kenai implant (now known as MOTUS). During our visit, Dr. Humphreys shares how a 3 a.m. epiphany and a hand-drawn sketch led to a breakthrough medical device, his struggles and triumphs in navigating the medical device industry, and why he believes motion preservation is the future of spine surgery.   Although Dr. Humphreys is native to Alaska, he started his medical education journey in the Midwest - graduating from the University of Notre Dame, receiving his medical degree at Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine, and completing his spine fellowship at The Medical College of Wisconsin. With over 25 years of experience, he has treated thousands of patients, contributed to major clinical advancements, and played a pivotal role in bringing motion preservation to the forefront of spine surgery. He has been instrumental in shaping the future of motion-preserving spine surgery, advocating for better long-term patient outcomes, and partaking in groundbreaking clinical trials.   In this episode, you'll learn: The reality of developing a medical device: Why bringing new technology to market takes decades. The evolution of spine care: Why the shift to motion preservation matters and is gaining momentum. The origins of MOTUS - the first lumbar total joint replacement: How a simple idea turned into a breakthrough device. The fight to change the standard of care: Why motion preservation is facing the same uphill battle as total hip and knee replacements once did. The availability of new technology: How new advancements are providing alternatives to spinal fusion for patients struggling with leg and/or back pain. A lifetime of impact: His philanthropic work through the Carolyn Jane Foundation, bringing critical pediatric spine care to Africa.   Beyond his contributions to spine care in Alaska, Dr. Humphreys and his wife, Julie Humphreys, RN, are deeply committed to philanthropy and global healthcare access. Through the Carolyn Jane Foundation, they provide life-changing scoliosis surgeries to children in underserved regions of Africa, ensuring that spine care is accessible to those who need it most. Their work has helped countless families, and their commitment to service is just as impactful as their innovations in spine surgery.   This episode is Part 1 of a 2-Part Founder Series. Check out Part 2 with Dr. Scott Hodges, where we go even deeper into the promise of motion preservation and patient outcomes! https://youtu.be/F8mdFKVf_2I     Note: The MOTUS device is currently in the data collection phase of a US IDE FDA Trial and is not available for commercial use at the time of recording.

During this new episode of our Founder Series, we sat down with Alex Rappaport, CEO and Co-founder of Zwitter Co. Zwitter Co is developing first-of-its kind filtration membranes that help treat and reuse some of the world's most challenging waste by providing tools that industry, food and manufacturing facilities can use to treat their wastewater and reuse it on-site at or below the cost of standard discharge. Alex always had an interest in the outdoors and getting sick from drinking bad water taught him the importance of water treatment. While attending Tufts University for environmental engineering, he became interested in entrepreneurship as a vehicle for impact. Armed with his idea, he was able to tap into the large Tufts network of alumni and mentors and launch Zwitter Co. We all know that water is instrumental to human life, but it is also fundamental to our way of life, and the way we produce things uses a lot of water. In this episode, Alex walks us through exactly how much water is wasted in making our stuff, where that water goes, and what he is doing to change that. In doing so, we learn about the main challenges of wastewater treatment, how regulation plays a role, the total market value of wastewater management, and the ins-and-outs of Zwitter's solution to a problem that is rapidly being aggravated by climate change.

Currently, there is a little more than half of the land worldwide that needs fire in some way to cycle nutrients, cycle carbon, and to regenerate. Brilliant Planet has created an online platform for landscape restoration that helps land managers plan in more fire-prone ecosystems. Allison grew up in Colorado, with issues of forest fires and pine beetles in her backyard. After a successful career in tech in Silicon Valley she started gravitating more toward climate issues and it wasn't until after the Paradise Fire that she really dove into how to regenerate the forests in the west that had been mismanaged for so many years. California is losing 6% of its forests per year, and Allison traced this down partially to a data and communication problem. So, she set out to create a platform that facilitated the monitoring and reporting of this rapidly changing ecosystem. In this episode, Allison starts off by explaining what nature-based solutions are and how she has created a tech product to enable them. She goes on to explain the natural challenges nature-based solutions face, along with those faced by analytics-as-a-service products. In doing so, she sets out how she created her product while ensuring good UX, and the economics of nature-based solutions.

It was fascinating to sit down with Alex who speaks with such passion about his journey as a successful tech salesman turned philanthropist, and now entrepreneur. In 2017, sensitive to the humanitarian crisis of the Rohingya population, Alex decided to take action and flew to Bangladesh with a film crew to produce 2 award winning documentaries showcasing the crisis with the world. The trip led him to learn about new plant based cellulose technologies that could be used in the construction industry, especially for better refugee shelters. Although the company has since shifted from this initial model toward producing pellets for manufacturers that are decarbonized through their plant fibers mix, it still makes houses for refugees that are sustainable, not only by reducing the material carbon footprint, but by using local material and labor to construct them. During this episode, Alex took me on a deep-dive into the plastics industry to learn how the market works, who the main players are, why there is a trail of dead-bodies in the bioplastics space and what Alex is doing differently.

It was utterly fascinating to converse with Marcus and learn the ins and outs of the dairy industry and how Neutral is tackling the emissions of a notoriously difficult sector to decarbonize. Marcus first got involved in the sector when he came to the US twenty years ago to run a family dairy farm. He has since worked with the best at Alphabet, Breakthrough Energy Ventures, and the Harvard Entrepreneurship program, in a variety of leadership roles. With his love for the countryside and farm life, he naturally found his way back by combining his business acumen, passion for climate change, and love of the country through his work at Neutral. As 93% of Americans have dairy milk in their refrigerators, it's imperative that the sector's emissions are tackled head-on immediately. And Marcus is doing just that with Neutral.

SINAI helps them replace existing operations with more sustainable solutions. I had long been looking forward to speaking with Maria and getting a better understanding of carbon markets and her journey in creating SINAI. Maria has always been interested in nature and doing whatever possible to coexist with it, something that may have come out of being raised by two forest engineers in Brazil. Prior to founding SINAI, she worked for a non-profit in the sustainable construction sector but eventually knew she was driven to do something more and was accepted into Singularity University at the NASA Research Park, where she learned all the skills needed to found a climate tech startup.   In this episode, Maria covers the ins and outs of carbon management and clarifies that carbon offsets should only be used for a company's emissions that cannot otherwise be reduced. But what are those companies and their main emissions? Maria explains what drives most companies to reduce their foorprints and which sectors are leading the charge.
