In this episode, I speak with Xin from Sign Global, a company building sovereign blockchain infrastructure for governments — from national stablecoins and CBDCs to digital identity and real-world asset systems.Xin explains why crypto struggles to reach real adoption: we build great tech but rarely solve problems for banks, regulators, or everyday users. Sign Global works directly with governments to modernize payments, identity, and asset rails — aiming to cut international settlement from 1–3 days to 2 minutes and unlock massive economic velocity.We discuss global stablecoin trends, why USD stablecoins won't dominate long term, how sovereign digital ID actually works, and why countries like Kazakhstan and the UAE are moving fastest.A rare, practical look at the future of national-scale blockchain systems.(Nothing here is financial advice.)Key timestamps[00:00:00] Cold Open: Xin on why crypto people don't talk to the real world [00:01:00] Intro: Sam introduces Xin and Sign Global's mission for sovereign infrastructure [00:03:00] Origin Story: Mining, hardware, VC and founding Sign in 2021 [00:05:00] From App to Nations: Pivoting from Web3 contract signing to CBDCs and stablecoins[00:08:00] Crypto vs Real World: Why good tech without real users doesn't create value [00:11:00] Digital ID: Sovereign credentials vs centralized government databases that keep getting hacked [00:15:00] Progressive States: Kazakhstan, UAE and how ambitious governments think about crypto [00:19:00] Future of Stablecoins: Why Xin believes stablecoins win but USD stablecoins won't dominate everyday money [00:24:00] Tokenizing Nations: Governments as gatekeepers for fiat, oil, land and RWA on-chain [00:30:00] Business Model: From government infra contracts to global payment rails [00:33:00] Bandwidth of Money: 1–3 day SWIFT vs 2-minute settlement and the impact on global GDP [00:34:00] Roadmap & Ask: 25+ countries, global payment network and who Xin wants to work withConnecthttps://sign.global/https://www.linkedin.com/company/ethsign/https://www.linkedin.com/in/xin-yan-658545172/https://x.com/ethsignhttps://x.com/realyanxinDisclaimerNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

Thanks for having me.Josh Hadley 00:00:46  Well, with how busy you are with a young and growing family and the business, we're excited to have you share some of your time with us. So thanks again for joining us. What else is there that you know? You're saying that Amazon eats your margin for business lunch and dinner or for breakfast? Lunch and dinner, right? So what else is there that you know, people should be paying attention to? And Amazon specifically for now that, you know, there could be a lot of, you know, marginally going out the business.Josh Gibson 00:01:15  Yeah. I mean, it's important to to track your weights and your gyms and your categories of what products you're selling in because there's some products. Say you're selling a printer. A printer should be in an 8% category, but sometimes they'll slide into a 15% category. So you're losing that that amount of money. You don't see it unless you're tracking tracking it. Or they could dim it out wrong. Say something. They as they went through their Cuba scan, it dimmed out incorrectly. So being able to go in and update and fix those dimensions and then do do file backs on those. also trying to find better, more efficient ways to do inbound shipments. and so there's, there's tools out there that we use that can take like right now we're running a full truckload, for $400, inbound FBA, where that same truckload going, another the route could be 3 to $4000. So it's the more time you do this. And the nice thing about our team is we can sit in a bullpen and go, okay, what are you guys learning? What'd you find out? and trying to take our collective knowledge, plus being able to go to, like, this, scale and sell summit and meet other people that know more things and aggregate this information to become more valuable.Josh Gibson 00:02:19  which, to your point is, if you're an owner operator trying to do this yourself, it becomes complicated because you don't have the resources and the ability to to learn all these things. Yeah. But to your point, it's it's the weight in gems. It is the categories. It is inbound shipments. I'm blanking on a few others, but it's really managing that protection of your bottom line. that's important. And it's also like specifically with inbound shipments is the annoying part is you can get that FBI ID cleared, they can say fully received. And we've seen with some clients ten, 12 months later, they say, actually we're five short. And if you're not going back and reordering those, even though you thought you did a good job auditing it. You can los...

The adoption of AI among energy and shipping companies is growing steadily. While it's helping to cut operational costs, boost productivity, and reduce emissions, a shortage of skills, data integration complexity, and trust are posing some challenges. In exploration, AI is helping to analyze complex sub-surface data and improve success rates. In midstream logistics, it is helping to optimize complex route planning and lastly; by deploying AI across refinery operations, oil companies are achieving higher yields in high-value fuels while cutting energy use. In this episode, Asia Energy Editor Sambit Mohanty discusses with Dave Ernsberger, president of S&P Global Energy, and Arun Biswas, strategic engagements leader at IBM Consulting for Asia-Pacific, some of the themes around AI's ability to influence how energy is produced, traded, and distributed in the years ahead.

Ismael (Founder/CEO) and Nate (Defense GTM) from Lagrange explain why the biggest commercial demand for cutting-edge cryptography might be outside crypto—securing AI in defense, healthcare, and regulated finance. We cover: why they built DeepProof (a zero-knowledge ML library that proves model outputs over private inputs), how this fits the DoD's zero-trust mandates, and why frontier crypto R&D should serve national interest, not just faster token launches. We also dig into GTM with government, what zero-knowledge adds beyond TLS, and how to talk “applied cryptography” without getting stuck in a “crypto” stigma.Key timestamps[00:00:00] Cold Open: Ismael on crypto funding frontier cryptography beyond tokens[00:01:00] Introduction: Sam sets up Lagrange, AI, defense, and applied cryptography[00:03:00] Origin Story: Ismael's path from TradFi and VC to founding Lagrange[00:06:00] Why Defense: Using crypto-funded cryptography for national security and AI safety[00:10:00] DeepProof Explained: Proving AI model outputs over private inputs with ZK[00:15:00] Business Model: “OpenAI sells inference; we sell proofs”[00:18:00] Beyond Crypto: Healthcare, compliance, and dual-use cryptography[00:22:00] Nate's Role: Selling applied cryptography to defense without leading with “crypto”[00:27:00] Lagrange Vision: Cryptographic supremacy and becoming the verifiability layer[00:33:00] Roadmap & Ask: Expansion into defense, partners with serious AI workloadsConnecthttps://www.lagrange.dev/https://www.linkedin.com/company/lagrange-labs/https://www.linkedin.com/in/i20h/https://x.com/lagrangedevhttps://x.com/Ismael_H_RDisclaimerNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research. It would mean a lot if you can leave a review of this podcast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify and share this podcast with a friend.Get featuredBe a guest on the podcast or contact us – https://www.web3pod.xyz/

Managing energy through fitness is vital for sales success, as Steve Whittington, President of Roadmap, go-to-market strategist, and mountain climber, well knows. Steve offers insights into the routines and habits that boost resilience, focus, and motivation in this demanding profession. From lead climbing and HIIT training to the importance of making fitness sacred, Steve highlights how prioritizing well-being can directly impact confidence, stress management, and ultimately, sales results.  Steve shares actionable tips on bringing your best self to every client interaction, and shares a real-world example tying peak physical achievement to peak sales performance. Outline of This Episode [00:00] Physical fitness is crucial for energy management & professional performance. [09:21] Prioritize exercise even amidst a busy schedule. [10:36] Staying fit while traveling. [14:20] Create a committed routine with an accountability partner to improve consistency. [17:05] How climbing Everest boosted Steve's professional career. The Energy-Confidence Connection For Steve Whittington, physical fitness is a lifelong foundation for managing energy and building unshakeable confidence. "When it comes to performance in a professional setting," Steve says, "having the right level of energy to draw from for the challenges that you're up against is critical." Regular exercise across flexibility, strength, cardio, diet, and sleep is his formula for sustainable energy and composure under pressure. We all know that confidence is infectious in sales. When you believe in yourself, your product, and your organization, buyers sense it, and they feed off it. For Steve, the discipline instilled through fitness translates directly to the sales floor, enabling professionals to be "always on" in fast-paced environments. Anchoring Success with Daily Fitness Habits Steve's approach to physical well-being has evolved with age, but consistency remains a key factor. Stretching every morning primes his energy and focus for the day ahead. He trains five to six days a week, ensuring he hits all the "pillars" of health. But the most energizing routine for him is lead climbing, an intense form of climbing where you clip in as you ascend, demanding total focus and delivering a powerful sense of accomplishment when finishing a route. It's all about focus and stillness, as they both give a physical and mental recharge that's hard to match. Three Habits for Sales Resilience When it comes to specific, actionable fitness habits that boost sales performance, Steve offers three clear favorites: HIIT Training Twice a Week: High-Intensity Interval Training gives a strong foundation for overall strength and endurance. Consistent Morning Stretching: This sets a positive tone and sharpens focus at the start of each day. Early Morning Movement: Whether it's running, hitting the gym, or another routine, getting moving before work has been transformative for Steve, creating momentum and energy that carries into his professional life. Overcoming the Salesperson's Fitness Dilemmas A common complaint among sales professionals is the lack of time for exercise, especially for those who are frequently on the road. Steve's solution is to make fitness non-negotiable and integrate it into your lifestyle. If you're traveling, scout gyms or running routes in advance, if possible, structure your work, like picking offices near your gym or walking routes, to bake physical activity into your day. Accountability partners, sacred routines, and progress tracking are all vital tools to make these habits stick. Improving your fitness powers your energy; it also helps you manage stress and sustain long-term motivation. After all, you can't be your best version for others if you're not taking care of yourself first.

Democracy faces challenges worldwide, and artificial intelligence has become an increasing part of that. In their book Rewiring Democracy: How AI Will Transform Our Politics, Government, and Citizenship, cybersecurity technologist Bruce Schneier and data scientist Nathan E. Sanders methodically unpack the ways AI is changing every aspect of democracy, while making the case that we can harness the technology to support and strengthen these systems. Neither fear-mongering nor utopian, Rewiring Democracy aims to present a clear-eyed and optimistic path for putting democratic principles at the heart of AI development — highlighting how citizens, public servants, and elected officials can use AI to expand access to justice and inform, empower, and engage the public.On October 23, the authors discussed their book with Data & Society's Director of Research Alice Marwick, walking us through their roadmap for understanding how AI is changing power and participation and what we can do to shape that change for the better.

I sat down with Michael Sena to explore how we'll start trusting AI agents with real‑world responsibilities — from crypto trading to enterprise workflows. We talk about his Web3 roots, the genesis of the concept behind skill markets, and how his project is creating transparency and performance benchmarks in a rapidly evolving AI ecosystem. If you've ever wondered how to evaluate an agent, give one control of money, or build one yourself — this episode gives you a front‑row seat.Key Learnings[00:01:00] Michael's journey: from discovering Bitcoin in 2011 to diving into Web3 identity protocols and ultimately shifting to AI skill‑markets.[00:04:00] What the company does: a “decentralised skill market” where AI agents are tested, ranked, and evaluated on real‑world skills.[00:06:00] The central problem: how do you trust an AI you hand your crypto portfolio to, or a business process you delegate?[00:10:00] Why benchmarks often fall short: static tests, academic settings, and hype don't always align with real‑world performance.[00:12:00] The role of agents vs. foundation models: many new AIs will specialise, and evaluation will need to keep up.[00:17:00] Why blockchain? For coordination, capital‑signalling, transparency and enabling open skill‑markets with economic incentives.[00:24:00] Most traction today: crypto‑trading agents, but enterprise and internal tooling evaluations are growing fast.[00:35:00] Roadmap highlights: token launch, permissionless market creation, verifiable AI execution via partnerships, and more.[00:39:00] How you can get involved: as a builder, curator, or user — open to anyone with interest and energy.Connecthttps://x.com/recallnethttps://recall.network/https://discord.com/invite/recallnethttps://www.linkedin.com/company/recalllabs/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/msena/https://x.com/dataliquidity DisclaimerNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research. It would mean a lot if you can leave a review of this podcast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify and share this podcast with a friend.Get featuredBe a guest on the podcast or contact us – https://www.web3pod.xyz/

Joining me today on the podcast is Stacey Brown Randall—a returning guest and someone you're going to love hearing from again. Stacey has been on the show twice before, and today she's back to share insights from her brand-new book, The Referable Client Experience. You may also know her as the author of the multiple award-winning book Generating Business Referrals Without Asking, and as the host of the hugely popular podcast Roadmap to Referrals. Beyond her work as a consultant and coach, she's also a wife and mom of three, bringing a grounded, real-world perspective to everything she teaches. In this episode, we're diving into what it truly takes to create a client experience that naturally generates referrals—without the awkward asks or uncomfortable scripts. You won't want to miss this conversation. Topics Mentioned: Emotional Connection Client Experience Consistency in Connection Referral Strategies Key Thoughts:  The Referable Client Experience Book Overview This book explores how businesses can create a client experience that generates referrals. The focus is on being a referrable business to begin.   Enhancing Client Referral Experiences   It is important to create a referable client experience beyond just delivering results. Understanding how people feel when referring others, not just the results, highlights the need for a repeatable process to ensure consistent positive results . Focusing on client feelings is crucial for generating referrals.   Client Experience Emotional Design      Intentionally craft a client experience to align with desired outcomes. "Ideal Client Reaction Script" involves identifying 3-5 key emotions or reactions clients should experience and ensuring your process is crafted to achieve these outcomes. Enhancing Client Experience with Consistency Having a repeatable process allows for consistency in approach and delivery. Clear SOPs that are documented encourages the client experience to be analyzed from start to finish. AI and Human Connection AI has a place in client experience models, but it cannot replace human connection. Identify which touch points can be automated, and which should be done by a human.   Contact Michele: Email: Team@ScarletThreadConsulting.com Facebook: Scarlet Thread Consulting Instagram: @ScarletThreadATL Website: ScarletThreadConsulting.com LinkedIn: Michele Williams   Contact Stacey: Email: stacey@staceybrandall.com Instagram: @staceybrownrandall Facebook: Stacey Brown Randall YouTube: Referrals Without Asking LinkedIn: Stacey B Randall Website: Stacey Brown Randall   References and Resources: Work with Me The Designers' Inner Circle - Become a Member Today    CFO2Go Metrique Solutions The Referable Client Experience by Stacey Brown Randall

In the quiet chaos of a family crisis, a single phone call can upend your world. For Beth Pinsker, CFP®, that call came when her 76-year-old mother, living independently in Florida, faced spinal surgery and needed help managing her daily life—and her money. What followed was nine months of medical ups and downs, culminating in her mother's passing and the grueling task of settling her estate. Pinsker, a retirement and financial planning columnist at MarketWatch, channeled this experience into her new book, My Mother's Money: A Guide to Financial Caregiving. It's not just a memoir; it's a roadmap for the 63 million Americans—often sandwiched between their own lives and aging parents—thrust into financial caregiving roles.As a Certified Financial Planner who doesn't manage client money, Pinsker's expertise shines through her journalistic lens. "I just write about this stuff for educational purposes and to help guide people through holistic planning," she explains in a recent interview with the Positive Aging Community. Her book demystifies the "mess" of elder finances, blending raw storytelling with practical tools. Structured in five parts—Getting Started, The Cost of Care, How to Make the Money Last, Settling the Estate, and Workbooks—it's designed to turn dread into doable steps.

Episode Description   What does leadership really mean when you're running both a household and a business? The truth is, I'm not just the CEO and founder of a growing brand I'm also the CEO of my household. I'm leading my team at work and my daughters at home, and while the stakes look different at the office versus the dinner table, the responsibility is equally high on both sides.   In this episode, I dive deep into the traits, values, and daily behaviors that help me lead effectively in both spaces without sacrificing who I am as a person. I share the weight of dual leadership, the tension of being the same father and husband after a tough day at work, and why winning in business means nothing if you lose at home.   From consistency and vision-casting to decisiveness and humility, the same character traits that make someone a great CEO also make them a great parent and spouse. I'll break down how we apply business frameworks like EOS to our family life, why your family needs vision just as much as your team does, and how saying "no" to protect your mission is one of the most powerful leadership tools you can master. Episode Timeline & Highlights   [0:00] – Introduction: Leading both business and household [0:35] – The weight of dual leadership and serving in both spaces [1:12] – Why winning at business but losing at home means you ultimately lose [1:53] – Trait #1: Consistency 13 years without missing an investment [2:54] – Trait #2: Vision casting quarterly vision for team and family [3:26] – Our family's "Foundations First" theme after overcoming major challenges [4:50] – Leading by example: Why your actions speak louder than words [5:23] – Trait #3: Decisiveness making hard calls with limited information [6:08] – Trait #4: Humility—the power of admitting when you're wrong [7:01] – Protecting the mission by saying no to distractions [7:57] – Leadership ROI: What real dividends look like [8:16] – Why work-life balance is silly go 110% on what matters most Key Takeaways   Leadership Is About Stewardship: Whether you're leading 50 people or a family of five, it's about carrying weight well when nobody claps. Same Traits, Different Settings: Consistency, vision, decisiveness, and humility work equally well in boardrooms and living rooms. Protection Through Boundaries: The more you invite into your life, the more complex it gets. Simple scales, fancy fails. Quotables   "If I win in business but lose at home, I lose ultimately." "Your family doesn't need grand gestures or huge home runs. They need consistency." "Work-life balance is silly you're focusing on being mediocre at everything versus putting 110% into the things that matter."

In today's episode, I shared why reaching your potential isn't about doing more—it's about doing what matters with intention. When you lead with gratitude, focus on one meaningful promise, and build simple systems that keep you consistent, your results start to compound. That's when people mistake preparation for luck. Success comes from aligning what you do, say, think, feel, and believe every day. When your behavior matches your vision, clarity grows, opportunities appear, and your frequency rises. Stay intentional, protect your attention, and let consistency guide your progress. To join my next free Friday Training session, email me at david@dmeltzer.com

Never-before-seen secret emails of Epstein, now released by the House, show the extent to which Epstein had damaging information about Trump's involvement that he was willing to use to extort Trump. Michael Popok examines the new emails, along with some new interview comments by journalist Michael Wolf about a couple of emails that have his name on it, and why they show just how bad the blocked docs are for Trump.
