Kevin Owocki is the founder of Gitcoin. Earlier this year, Gitcoin transitioned from the original company structure to a DAO, and Kevin exited from his leadership role to cede full governance over to the token holders. In this episode, Kevin and Jess talk through the road that led him there and the many challenges and opportunities of decentralization that he — and Gitcoin — learned along the way, and how blockchain uniquely enables the transition from centralized company to fully decentralized organization.

Dan Romero is the co-founder of Farcaster, the decentralized social network that many in crypto are turning to as a Twitter alternative. Jess and Dan explore what it means to be a decentralized social network in 2022, the critical differences between stewarding an open protocol and a client, the transition from users to customers, and how to build for revealed preference vs. stated preference.

Thinking about using a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) for your next business venture? Wondering how DAOs make money? To discover how DAOs offer a new way to structure business and find examples of successful DAO-run business models to consider creating, I interview Jess Sloss.

Having survived the last transition from bull to bear, today's community-owned networks are discovering the merits of curated communities aligning around shared passion. In episode 2 of Building At The Edges, Jess explores the future of value creation through the lens of passion with guest Gaby Goldberg. Gaby is an investor at TCG Crypto, an early stage crypto fund. Their emerging thesis on “investing in passion” could be described as shorthand for the intimacy and connection that comes from building intentionally with small groups of dedicated people. While much of the crypto space incentivizes people to get out, fork, or rage quit, the most promising products and experiences will arguably come from the communities where people are incentivized to stay and create.

Bradley Miles, CEO of Roll, a platform that uses blockchain to bring social tokens to life, and Rob Collier, CEO of Rally, a platform that allows creators and artists to launch their own digital currencies, sit down with Jess Sloss, instigator of Seed Club, a leading network for DAO builders and operators, to discuss social tokens.They break down what social tokens are, their importance and how people are using this form of currency to make lots of money. The panel discussion took place on June 10, the second day of CoinDesk's Consensus 2022 festival in Austin, Texas. The executive producer for CoinDesk Reports is Jared Schwartz.

In our Season 3 kick-off episode, Jess sits down with Marty Bell, founder of Poolsuite, for an inside look into the Poolsuite universe. Poolsuite is one of those irresistible brands that's nearly impossible to explain. That's partially due to the precisely executed, multilayered experiences across Poolsuite's world, including auditory, visual, digital, and physical goods. Jess and Marty pull-apart the experiential details that define Poolsuite, and surface lessons from their most recent release, Grand Leisure. They explore the novel interactions of web3 brands and businesses, DAOs as incubators for community ideas, and the importance of technology optionality.

What do we, as normal people, actually own in web3? Yes, we own the NFTs, but we SHOULD own the network. Today's guest, Jess Sloss, runs The Seed Club: an incubator for web 3 communities and networks. On today's show, we discuss what we as participants in this network (and our multiple sub networks) should expect from the space, and what it should expect from us.

Jess Sloss is the Chief Instigator at SeedClub. Seed Club is a DAO that builds, supports, and invests in tokenized communities - providing mentorship, thought leadership, and programming to help communities bring the future value of their collaboration, creativity, and connection into the present and turn their social capital into digital assets. Jess is not only informed on the role DAOs play in today's world, but gives an honest look at the growth of the space, along with its limitations. In this episode, we cover: The many facets of Seed Club Navigating the weird and wild world of tokens, crypto, and web3 People capturing profit, not platforms The Seed Club Community Playbook Contribution within DAOs Why DAOs are increasingly distributing non fungible tokens versus fungible tokens To follow Jess Sloss on Twitter, go here: https://twitter.com/thattallguy To follow Seed Club on Twitter, go here: https://instagram.com/seedclubhq

“The next generation of internet protocols and platforms and applications will be owned and operated by their users.” Mason Nystrom is an investment partner at Variant Fund, and he – like Seed Club – firmly believes in this bright version of our collective future. In this episode, Jess and Mason explore emerging trends and challenges in web3, and what they mean for community token networks. Governance makes a cameo, as does the call for more DAO leadership and structure. They touch on the increasingly blurred lines between users, consumers, builders, and owners. Web3 unlocks new types of consumer interactions; creating containers for those novel interactions to emerge will accelerate onboarding the next billion people to crypto.

We've got a special episode of Club Pod with Seed Club Co-Creators Jess Sloss and Nicole d'Avis. Jess and Nicole recorded the episode late on a very hot summer Friday to bring us a comprehensive exploration of what we can expect for SC05. We hear about the thoughtful, significant changes to the Accelerator (shoutout to interval training), the updated selection process (double shoutout to the Accelerator Portal), and what makes a great project for the Accelerator. We cover why the Accelerator matters and the role of Seed Club as an unmatched sensemaking network of the leading web3 innovators. Applications for SC05 opened earlier this week, and the application period remains open through August 15.

The core value at Seed Club is our network, which traces its origin to its nascent days in crypto. Wong Joon Ian is one of Seed Club's earliest co-conspirators. He's a shining example of the “thoughtfully” in lets f*cking thoughtfully go – integrating historical insights from the physical world into the high-velocity design space of web3 community-building. Joon runs Amplified, a web3-native premier event and conference planning service, which amplifies the role of gatherings in cultivating great communities. We jam on token insights through the lens of loyalty points programs and local currencies, pulling apart the parallels and key distinctions. Our conversation ends with a jump down the web3 media rabbit hole.

The questions motivating Arkive are not distinct to the needs of a decentralized museum — they're universally resonate considerations for anyone building community-owned networks in web3. Tom McLeod is the co-founder of Arkive, the self-proclaimed “last museum” and simultaneous first-ever decentralized physical museum. Arkive's design space exists at the intersection of physical objects, digital community-building, and member governance. Tom walks us through decision-making experiments enabled by their in-house DAO tool Atrium, providing a justification for bespoke DAO tooling solutions. He shares the coordination tensions they're hoping to solve, guided by a strong belief in embedding community engagement ahead of financialization. We're left with a clear takeaway: the most exciting DAOs will become institutions.

In this episode, we sit down with Matt Medved, co-founder of NFT NOW. We talk about his experience building media brands in the legacy world, having worked at Billboard and Spin Magazine, and how that has informed what he is doing with NFT NOW stepping into the web3 space. We talk about how DAOs and communities can be effective media organizations. And how to build great founding teams and culture.

In this episode, we sit down with Steve Klebanoff. Steve is a developer. He's worked at 0x protocol. He's been involved with several NFT experiments in the generative artspace and is an advisor to Artblocks and, most recently, a core contributor at Party DAO. We talked about his early days getting in the space and what he found so appealing about Ethereum. About what enamored him with generative art, we finished talking about Party DAO, the genesis story there, and what we can expect from Party DAO v.2.

Today we have Brian Flynn, CEO, and co-founder of Rabbit Hole. Brian is a dear friend who helped inspire the birth of Seed Club. In this episode, we dig into reputation, DAO tools, what we get right, and what we get wrong. How do we ultimately scale DAOs from 50 people collaborating with each other to 5,000?  We spent a bunch of time talking about Nouns DAO. The bull case, the bear case. We also talk about building value in DAOs, the importance of it, the challenges of it, how far we've come, and how far we have to go. 

 DAOs are capturing the imagination of creators and entrepreneurs the world over. Jess Sloss, instigator at Seed Club, joins Kevin Kelly, co-founder of Delphi Digital, to discuss how they guide and invest in startup communities as well as explain how social tokens can play an important role delivering value to those communities' members. In this deep dive, Sloss explains who DAOs will work for and why Seed Club is discerning who is in this journey for the long haul. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We talk about Backdrop's initial intention when building and has that has evolved. The idea of impermanence when building web3 products and platforms vs. web2 platforms keeps users locked—the next season of tokenized communities and what incentive structures could change. And Insight into tokenization of SAS products and how Joey is thinking about it today.

Today we bring you a conversation with Tina He, product designer, entrepreneur, and co-founder of Station. We got into some big topics: reputation, governance, token economic models, and Station.

Jess Sloss is one of the founders -- he calls himself an "instigator" -- of Seed Club, a collective that helps people create social tokens to run decentralized projects. A native of Canada, Jess comes from a family of entrepreneurs and is one of the nicest, most generous and knowledgeable people in web3 that you will come across. He speaks about how he learned he definitely didn't want to follow in his father's footsteps in the gardening business and how growing up in the 1990s with the early Internet led him into tech. Seed Club runs an accelerator program to help projects explore how they can use web3 tools to reimagine how commercial organizations can be built, in many cases leading the the formation of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs).

Welcome to the Cutting Edge: Founders' Series, where culture, and entrepreneurship, meets crypto. Today on the pod, we have Jess Sloss, the co-creator of Seed Club an incubator for tokenized communities.

In this episode, David Spinks, the VP of Community at Bevy and the Co-Founder of CMX, joins the Seed Club DAO Podcast. They discuss consumer empowerment and how the role of a community has evolved as consumers have grown in power. Later, they dive into the specifics of community building, the infrastructure required to deliver a sense of belonging over the long-term, and how to effectively onboard new members into a community. Who is this episode for? Community managers and business executives Three key takeaways: 1. Interconnecting business and community: The community becomes the core of a company. David points to this idea by revealing the historical context of how business has been evolving. Recently, with the advent of the internet and our ability to review products and talk about them, companies have started to care about customer service more and more. Besides, it's efficient and practical to let the community own and build a business. 2. Building better and more resilient communities: Building a community requires constant work and engagement. First, you need to think about how you'll attract people in a thoughtful and meaningful way. Secondly, continue working to build that engagement and facilitate and bring that energy into the community. 3. The core roles and responsibilities for building a community: If you want to put a community team together, you need a higher specialization of roles. There are community moderators that engage and respond to people. But it's also crucial to have a strategic leader who has a seat at the table at the highest level of the company. The team itself will usually be a combination of community engagement managers. They will focus on facilitating engagement, driving growth, and experimenting with different formats. There also must be community operations, which measure the data and analytics. Eventually, more roles will appear, and people within the community will specialize in them. Notable Quotes: 1. “And now in web three, what I see now is the ultimate culmination of this trend towards community-driven business, which is like the community is owning, creating, and building the business” 2. “Web three can bring to the concept of community-driven business, create a more equitable ecosystem, and give the people creating value and the opportunity to capture that value as well” 3. “I think that community-building work is one of the most important jobs in the world”

In this week's episode we speak with Jess Sloss, the instigator of Seed Club, a DAO that builds and invests in community tokens. We talk about the emergence of the social token economy, and how that's different from the creator economy or the gig economy; the difference is that social tokens and DAOs allow individuals to create wealth rather than create revenue. They're tools for creators, and importantly, also for creator' fans, to build something that's similar to equity in a company, instead of having a salary. Another concept that describes this, Jess says, is the ownership economy. This is the idea that creators and fans can have actual ownership of their communities and platforms. Jess says we're about to see billion-dollar communities on the internet. Big thanks to our sponsors: Colony, which makes it easy for people all over the world to build organizations together, online.
