In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Rosario Parlanti, a longtime crypto investor and real estate attorney, about the shifting landscape of decentralization, AI, and finance. They explore the power struggles between centralized and decentralized systems, the role of AI agents in finance and infrastructure, and the legal gray areas emerging around autonomous technology. Rosario shares insights on trusted execution environments, token incentives, and how projects like Phala Network are building decentralized cloud computing. They also discuss the changing narrative around Bitcoin, the potential for AI-driven financial autonomy, and the future of censorship-resistant platforms.

Rosario Parlanti explains that decentralization doesn't mean eliminating central hubs entirely, but rather reducing choke points where power is overly concentrated. Whether in finance, cloud computing, or governance, every system faces forces pushing toward centralization for efficiency and control, while counterforces work to redistribute power and increase resilience.Trusted execution environments (TEE) are crucial for decentralized cloud computing. Rosario highlights how Phala Network uses TEEs, a hardware-based security measure that isolates sensitive data from external access. This ensures that decentralized cloud services can operate securely, preventing unauthorized access while allowing independent providers to host data and run applications outside the control of major corporations like Amazon and Google.AI agents will need decentralized infrastructure to function autonomously. The conversation touches on the growing power of AI-driven autonomous agents, which can execute financial trades, conduct research, and even generate content. However, running such agents on centralized cloud providers like AWS could create regulatory and operational risks. Decentralized cloud networks like Phala offer a way for these agents to operate freely, without interference from governments or corporations.Regulatory arbitrage will shape the future of AI and crypto. Rosario describes how businesses and individuals are already leveraging jurisdiction shopping—structuring AI entities or financial operations in countries with more favorable regulations. He speculates that AI agents could be housed within offshore LLCs or irrevocable trusts, creating legal distance between their creators and their actions, raising new ethical and legal challenges.Bitcoin's narrative has shifted from currency to investment asset. Originally envisioned as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, Bitcoin has increasingly been treated as digital gold, largely due to the influence of institutional investors and regulatory frameworks like Bitcoin ETFs. Rosario argues that this shift in perception has led to Bitcoin being co-opted by the very financial institutions it was meant to disrupt.The rise of AI-driven financial autonomy could bypass traditional banking and regulation. The combination of AI, smart contracts, and decentralized finance (DeFi) could enable AI agents to conduct financial transactions without human oversight. This could range from algorithmic trading to managing business operations, potentially reducing reliance on traditional banking systems and challenging the ability of governments to enforce financial regulations.The accelerating clash between technology and governance will redefine global power structures. As AI and decentralized systems gain momentum, traditional nation-state mechanisms for controlling information, currency, and infrastructure will face unprecedented challenges. Rosario and Stewart discuss how this shift mirrors previous disruptions—such as social media's impact on information control—and speculate on whether governments will adapt, resist, or attempt to co-opt these emerging technologies.
For episode 496, Founder Chris Nehmy joins Brandon Zemp to discuss their upcoming launch of the $ROCKY coin.Rocky, a mischievous raccoon with a talent for digging up Wall Street's secrets, is more than just a mascot—he's a symbol of financial disruption. While the elites hoard wealth, Rocky exposes their tricks and redistributes the knowledge to everyday traders. His mission isn't just about fighting back—it's about playing the game on his own terms, turning financial corruption into fuel for the memecoin revolution.Unlike many other memecoins, $ROCKY is built on extensive lore, gamified engagement, and viral community-driven storytelling. The launch will feature interactive elements like Dumpster Hunts and exposés, creating a unique experience that goes beyond simple token speculation. With a transparent launch, there are no VC allocations and no insider presales—just a fair and open opportunity for anyone to join Rocky's growing movement.The rise of memecoins has shown the power of organic, decentralized communities, and $ROCKY aims to push the movement further. With an evolving narrative, a rapidly expanding following, and a clear mission, Rocky isn't just here to expose Wall Street—he's here to redefine how memes, markets, and decentralized finance collide.

Ethereum Tokenomics Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. The Ethereum network is one of the largest blockchain networks available. Here are the tokenomics for ETH, the token of the Ethereum network. There are three constituents in the Ethereum community as follows: Users who hold ETH are either investors or application users of the network. Miners who process the transactions on the network which generate new ETH. Stakers who invest funds in exchange for ETH to verify the transactions. Users pay a transaction fee to the miners and a tip fee to the stakers for the use of the network which decreases the supply of ETH. Miners generate new ETH in exchange for processing transactions which increases the supply. The tokenomics can be measured by reviewing the total number of active addresses holding Ethereum and the number of transactions. The applications running on the Ethereum network also point to the strength of the chain. Too much demand inflates the price of the token. Too many new tokens generated deflates the price of the token. A good tokenomics system keeps a balance between supply and demand achieving equilibrium.

How To Build Tokenomics for Your Project Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In designing tokenomics the goal is to incentivize the community toward a common goal. This can be done through the design of the supply and demand as well as specific incentives. Here are the steps to design tokenomics for your project: Identify the utility of the token and the value it will bring to the holder and how it aligns with their needs Build the token mechanics. This includes the minting, supply, and demand as well as the burning of tokens. Determine if the tokens are active or passive. Active tokens process information while passive tokens simply represent a utility or value. Determine if the token can be transferred or not. Decide the monetary and fiscal policy of the token. Determine how the token will be sold or distributed. Check the legal issues to ensure compliance in your jurisdiction. Check compatibility with smart contracts for enacting the tokens on a blockchain. Test at each stage to ensure proper functioning. The objective is to create a stable ecosystem meeting the needs of the community. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.

Elements of Tokenomics Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Tokenomics focuses on the supply and demand of the token in an ecosystem. Supply and demand determine the price of the token. Increasing the supply of tokens generates inflation of the price while decreasing the supply causes deflation. The demand side is determined by how the market views the token. The market assesses the potential return on investment for the token. The ability of the token to generate revenue through yield farming would increase the token's ROI. Additional utilities such as governance capabilities, access to community resources, and access to revenue streams increase the token's ROI. In some cases, pure speculation will drive the price of the token. Vesting schedules, lockups, and other tools can be used to increase the demand for the token. Airdrops can be used to establish an initial community of token holders. Tokens can be burned to increase the value of the token by increasing scarcity. The goal is to create a stable price for the token and provide incentives to encourage others to become token holders. These are the basic elements of tokenomics for managing the token supply and demand.

What Is Tokenomics Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Tokenomics is a combination of “token” and “economics” and encompasses the creation, distribution, supply and demand, and destruction of tokens in an ecosystem. It's important to apply proper tokenomics or token management for the following reasons: Incentive -- provides incentives to move the community towards its goals. Distribution -- disburses the tokens to miners and stakers who validate the transactions, and users who provide value to the community. Stability -- create a stable price for the token so the community remains focused on the project at hand rather than the price volatility of the token. Yield -- create a token of value that can generate income through interest rate arbitrage. Dissolution -- a path for removing tokens from the ecosystem to foster a stable price and prevent inflation. Supply management -- maintain an adequate number of tokens to grow the community and meet its objectives. Vesting -- required hold time of the token to prevent short-term speculation and create cohesion in the community. Tokenomics fosters the economy of the community. A good tokenomics structure leads to a healthy community through proper management of the token economics.

Designing Tokenomics Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In designing the tokenomics for your business there are four key areas to consider: Role of the token -- what role will the token play and what value will it bring. The token could be a store of value, provide access, or facilitate governance. Supply of the token -- how many tokens will be minted, used, and burned. The supply could be fixed or variable. It could increase or decrease based on a community vote. Utility of the token -- how does the holder of the token use it. What access does the token bring? What value could it have? What voting rights can the user hold? Incentive of the token -- what drives a user to obtain a token and use it? Does it represent ownership in which case the token acts as a security? Does it represent compensation in which case the user could exchange it for dollars and spend it. A good token design can keep up with the demand of the network. It can be repaired by votes from the community if there's a fault in the design. Consider these issues in your tokenomics design.

Dan is the Head of Growth at Pendle Finance. In this Yield Talks, we explore Boros, Pendle's highly anticipated new protocol for yield trading with margin. Discover how Boros unlocks capital-efficient opportunities for hedging and speculation by enabling leveraged trading on yields, starting with funding rates. We'll discuss the unique use cases Boros introduces, its role in extending yield trading across DeFi and TradFi, and how it integrates with Pendle's ecosystem. If you're curious about the future of onchain yield trading and what this innovation means for DeFi, this episode is for you. ------
Crypto networks are meant to be decentralized, community owned systems. But they're turned out to be dominated by whales and to have more mercenaries who are just interested in getting free tokens to dump them, rather than having long-term believers who want to build the ecosystem. How can tokens be launched in a way that gets token holders aligned with long-term success? Today's guests, Mike Dudas, founding partner of 6th Man Ventures, and Matt O'Connor, co-founder of Legion, believe there's room for improvement. In this episode, they share how Legion aims to reshape the process, focusing on fair distribution, incentivizing organic user growth, and building loyal communities. They explore Legion's approach to token sales, its compatibility with regulatory frameworks, and why it might be the key to bringing new people into crypto. Show highlights: How Legion was born and what its main goal is The problems with how token launches currently work Why projects don't want to return to the ICO model Whether the criteria to earn a better reputation on Legion is gameable How Legion actually works and what the role of KYC is What type of regulatory framework Legion is leveraging How MiCA's rules for token offerings allowed for this type of project to emerge Whether the U.S. should follow Europe in establishing a crypto framework like MiCA What the business model of Legion is What the difference is between Legion and other similar platforms such as Cobie's Echo Whether token sales is a better distribution mechanism than airdrops Visit our website for breaking news, analysis, op-eds, articles to learn about crypto, and much more: unchainedcrypto.com Thank you to our sponsors!

Connor welcomes back old co-host Sami Kassab (now a Partner at OSS Capital) and guest Josh Benaron, founder of Irys, a next-generation data provenance and storage L1. They delved into the evolution of Irys from its origins as Bundlr, an L2 solution for Arweave, to its current status as a programmable data chain. Josh shared his insights on the importance of storytelling and writing for founders, emphasizing how effective communication can significantly impact hiring, fundraising, and overall success. They explored Josh's unique journey, including his decision to drop out of university to pursue his entrepreneurial ambitions in the crypto space. He discussed the vision behind Irys, which aims to unify data services on-chain and support applications that rely heavily on data. Josh also addressed the differences between Irys and other projects like Filecoin, highlighting how Irys enables programmability at the data level, which he believes is crucial for mass adoption. As they wrapped up, they touched on the future of decentralized applications (dApps) and the potential of DePIN networks. Josh expressed his bullish outlook on the DePIN space, noting its significant market fit despite being less hyped compared to other sectors like AI. They also discussed the upcoming token for Irys, with Josh hinting at a thoughtful approach to tokenomics that prioritizes community strength and sustainability. 00:00 - Introduction 01:23 - The Importance of Writing and Storytelling for Founders 04:11 - Josh's Decision to Drop Out of University 06:54 - Transition from Bundler to Irys 10:04 - Irys vs. Filecoin: Differentiating Approaches 14:05 - Incentivizing Builders on Irys 16:57 - The Future of DeFi and Deepin 19:32 - Unified Layer for Permanent and Non-Permanent Data 21:14 - Tokenomics and Future Plans for Irys Disclaimer: The hosts and the firms they represent may hold stakes in the companies mentioned in this podcast.

In today's episode, Sal and Connor had an insightful discussion with Mike from Geodnet about their recent move to become a multi-chain platform. They explored the motivations behind this decision, particularly how it allows Geodnet to tap into different Web3 communities and enhance adoption of their utility token, GEOD. Mike shared that Geodnet is already wrapped on IoTeX and is set to expand onto Solana, which he believes has a strong DeFi ecosystem. They delved into the benefits of going multi-chain, including the ability to meet Web3 users where they are and the potential for increased liquidity. Mike emphasized that while some may worry about fragmenting liquidity, established projects like Geodnet can successfully navigate this challenge. The conversation also touched on Geodnet's impressive on-chain revenue generation, which ranks among the top in the DePIN space. Mike explained how their B2B focus has led to significant customer adoption across various industries, including automotive and agriculture. They discussed the competitive advantages Geodnet has, such as its extensive global RTK network, which offers unmatched accuracy and ease of use compared to existing solutions. They also explored the tokenomics of Geodnet, where every dollar spent on their services directly contributes to buying back GEOD tokens, with a significant portion being burned to create a deflationary effect. Mike highlighted their goal of decentralization, aiming to establish Geodnet as a fully decentralized protocol for high-accuracy data. Towards the end of the episode, they discussed Geodnet's plans for a mobile app that will enhance consumer GPS navigation and improve accuracy in challenging environments like tunnels. Mike explained the technology behind this, including sensor fusion techniques that combine GPS with inertial measurement units for better performance. Overall, this episode provided a comprehensive look at Geodnet's innovative approach to high-precision location services and their commitment to building a decentralized future. 00:00 - Introduction 00:32 - Introduction to Multi-Chain Strategy 02:00 - Geodnet's Multi-Chain Expansion 04:30 - On-Chain Revenue Generation 06:30 - Adoption Drivers for Geodnet 08:30 - Cost Savings with Geodnet 10:30 - Tokenomics and Revenue Accrual 14:00 - Decentralization Goals 17:00 - Scaling Supply Side 20:30 - Geodnet Token Incentives for Miners 22:30 - Mobile App Development 24:30 - Enhancing GPS Accuracy 28:00 - Conclusion Disclaimer: The hosts and the firms they represent may hold stakes in the companies mentioned in this podcast.

In recent news, if you are watching CoinMarketCap and following Cardano, you would have seen that Toncoin (TON) has flipped Cardano and pushed it into the number 10 spot. For some who are only just discovering TON, we look into how this crypto got a higher market cap than one of the biggest Layer-1 blockchains in the space. From analysis, whales hold most of TON, with the top 100 holders holding over 90% of the circulating supply of TON. This opens it up to market manipulation and wash trading.

Join me as I interview Rishabh Gupta, director of Tdefi, an accelerator and incubator that helps Web3 founders launch and grow their startups. We discuss mistakes founders make when tokenizing businesses, the importance of aligning token models with business models, challenges with creating liquid token markets, and more. Rishabh shares his contrarian views on the crypto industry and why he believes gameplay experience trumps flashy graphics when building sustainable Web3 games. Tune in for an insightful conversation on tokenomics, adoption, incentives and the future of decentralized finance. Nothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research. Finally, I don't run ads on my podcast. It would mean a lot if you can leave a review of this podcast on ApplePodcasts or share this podcast with a friend.

In this week's episode, Anna (https://twitter.com/annarrose) and Tarun (https://twitter.com/tarunchitra) chat with Noam Nisan (https://twitter.com/noamnisan), Professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (https://www.cs.huji.ac.il/~noam/), Principle Researcher at StarkWare Industries (https://starkware.co) and one of the pioneers in the field of Algorithmic Game Theory. They cover his extensive research and academic background, starting with his work on complexity theory as well as Algorithmic Game Theory and his current work on blockchains and Tokenomics at StarkWare. They discuss his recent blog post; Simple Tokenomics for a Proof-of-Stake Utility Token (https://starkware.co/resource/simple-tokenomics-for-a-proof-of-stake-utility-token/), comparing the measurable Tokenomic outcomes of different live PoS systems and explore how Noam aimed to better communicate best practices for those designing these systems, plus much more.
