Podcasts about future perfect ventures

Eve Eurydice speaks with Jalak Jobanputra, an early investor in the blockchain space (2013), long before institutional adoption. She started Future Perfect Ventures in 2014 to invest in decentralized technologies with a focus on crypto assets. She grew up in Nairobi, Kenya to parents of Indian descent and has been a venture capitalist in internet ventures since graduating from Wharton. She was awarded Institutional Investor's Most Powerful Fintech Dealmakers, was cited as a Top 5 Investor Powering the Blockchain Boom and was awarded Microsoft's VC Trailblazer Award. She has spoken at conferences and diverse news media including the Milken Global Conference, The Economist Buttonwood Gathering, SALT, Bloomberg, MIT, SXSW, CNBC, and Yahoo Finance.The two women discuss cryptocurrency, digital assets (including NFTs), a central bank digital coin, blockchain Infrastructure that enables our Healthcare or Education Data to be mined safely & universally on Web3. Unlike fiat currencies that can become illegal tender by law or devalued by FED monetary policy and are used to manage national security via international sanctions, cryptocurrencies are borderless and decentralized. Use computers instead of printers! A very small % of the world population is crypto-literate; unfamiliar with crypto wallets the way people were unfamiliar with email a few decades ago, billions of people await to be informed.

Juthica Chou, chief operating officer of LedgerX, talks about the company's new license to offer its derivatives to retail investors and the resulting platform, Omni. She walks through what call and put options are, how they work and why people and companies purchase them as opposed to just buying or selling bitcoin directly. We discuss why LedgerX believes physically settled bitcoin options are superior to cash-settled ones, how LedgerX handles hard forks, and other contracts focused on the technicals of crypto networks it could offer such as its halving contract. Plus, she describes what it was like to be building a Bitcoin-centered company during the "blockchain not Bitcoin" era.  Sign up for the Virtues of the Crypto Revolution retreat with me, Meltem Demirors of CoinShares and Jalak Jobanputra of Future Perfect Ventures at Omega Institute!!

Dan Morehead, founder and CEO of Pantera Capital, and Joey Krug, co-chief investment officer of Pantera and founder of Augur, discuss where we are in the development cycle of blockchain technology, how Bitcoin, if stays on past trend lines, could hit $42,000 by year's end and $356,000 a couple years after that, and why the biggest challenges now are around scaling and onboarding. We also cover what the adoption of the technology will mean long-term — how creating assets and markets will no longer be the realm of a privileged view — but why payments may be one of the last areas to be disrupted. Morehead and Krug also talk about how Libra walks the line between decentralized and centralized, and it's unclear how Libra will become decentralized. Plus, hear how they respond to questions about the SEC vs. Kik.  Sign up for the Virtues of the Crypto Revolution retreat with me, Meltem Demirors of CoinShares and Jalak Jobanputra of Future Perfect Ventures at Omega Institute!!  Thank you to our sponsors!

Jalek Jobanputra, Founding partner of Future /Perfect Ventures, an early stage venture capital firm in NYC, focused on next generation technology,, including blockchain and machine learning, talks about her journey as an early investor in emerging tech and what the landscape looks like.

Jalak Jobanputra, founder and managing partner of Future Perfect Ventures, talks about how, in 2014, her experience as an investment bank and VC, her global background, and her observation that new streams of data were becoming available led her to launch her first fund, which ended up being 70% invested in blockchain. She describes what it was like selling LPs on the nascent technology in 2014, how her latest fund, which will be more than $50 million, is different and how it's drawing LPs who thought they could make money through liquid hedge funds invested in tokens. She talks about why she thinks early-stage technologies can't be IPO'ed -- and why FPV shied away from ICOs -- but why her second fund is capable of investing in tokens. She also explains how the space is still lacking in early-stage VCs with knowledge of the blockchain sector, why New York launched the New York Blockchain Center and whether crypto is becoming more diverse.

On a special episode of Late Confirmation, we visit the Concordia Annual Summit in New York City, where a broad range of thinkers and creators from different fields gather alongside the UN General Assembly. In this episode, we sit down with four notable attendees from the blockchain sphere and ask them each one question: Where is blockchain tech on the hype cycle?The Gartner hype cycle, for those who don’t know, tracks the expectations of a new technology over time. Developing technology can hit the Peak of Inflated Expectations before falling into the Trough of Disillusionment, from which –– if successful –– it will emerge onto the Slope of Enlightenment. As a subjective measuring tool, the hype cycle can be useful thought experiment for thinking about discussions of blockchain technology.Our interviewees in this episode include Hyperledger’s Brian Behlendorf, attorney Preston Byrne, Microsoft’s Blockchain Engineering team Project Manager Yorke Rhodes, and Jalak Jobanputra, founding partner of Future/Perfect Ventures.Thanks to our sponsors!Said Business School, University of OxfordOxford Fintech ProgrammeOxford Blockchain Strategy ProgrammeLate Confirmation is a CoinDesk production made in collaboration with The Podglomerate.For more information, visit www.CoinDesk.com

Jalak Jobanputra is Founding Partner of Future/Perfect Ventures, an early stage venture capital fund in NYC focused on next generation technology such as blockchain and machine learning. Prior to starting the fun, Jalak’s career included lots of experience with tech, communications, and investing. When Jalak originally began investing in blockchain projects, she was met with skepticism from many. Bitcoin had been associated with Silk Road and cybercrime, the market wasn’t looking great, and Jalak was one of few investors who saw its potential. In this episode, Jalak shares some of the early projects she invested in, what their second fund is looking to invest in, and what they look for when deciding which companies to fund.Topics covered:- How Jalak became interested in the crypto space.- What it was like being one of the first early-stage investors to fund blockchain projects.- What Future/Perfect is looking to invest in now, and what they look for when deciding what to invest in.- Important things for entrepreneurs to know who are looking to get into the blockchain/crypto space.- Weekend for women in blockchain.- Recommendations for people looking to get started in crypto.Links for resources mentioned:http://futureperfectventures.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/jalak https://twitter.com/jalakhttp://thebarefootvc.com/https://www.wired.com/story/for-women-in-cryptocurrency-a-new-effort-to-grow-their-ranks/ https://www.amazon.com/Truth-Machine-Blockchain-Future-Everything/dp/1250114578 https://www.amazon.com/Age-Cryptocurrency-Blockchain-Challenging-Economic/dp/1250081556 http://unchainedpodcast.co/https://www.coindesk.com/
