For this Long Read Sunday, NLW hands the mic to AI to read three of Byron Gilliam's standout essays from the Breakdown newsletter. First, “Crypto's Competitive Advantage” draws a bold parallel between 19th-century U.S. capital markets and the wild world of meme coin ICOs—arguing that pump.fun may be the Erie Railroad of Web3. Next, “Can the Genius Act Save Banks from Stablecoins?” explores how America's newest crypto legislation recalls the era of Regulation Q, money market funds, and toaster giveaways. Finally, “Anarchy, Crime, and Stablecoins” reflects on how Timothy May might interpret Congress' surprising embrace of crypto—and where the fences still stand. A sweeping historical and philosophical ride through one of crypto's most pivotal weeks. Get the Breakdown newsletter here: https://blockworks.co/newsletter/the-breakdown Enjoying this content?

Nach Monaten der Bitcoin-Dominanz scheint der Bann mit Blick auf Ethereum gebrochen. Der Prügelknabe der Blockchain-Believer kennt plötzlich nur noch eine Richtung: ganz steil nach oben. Woher der Turnaround kommt, welche Rolle der Genius Act dabei spielt – und ob das Ganze der Startschuss für eine neue Altcoin-Season ist – diskutieren Julius Nagel und Florian Adomeit in dieser Folge von Alles Coin, Nichts Muss. Doch auch wenn Krypto aktuell kein Halten kennt, hat uns die Vergangenheit vor allem eines gelehrt: Alles hat ein Ende – und auch diese Welle dürfte irgendwann brechen. Wann also aussteigen und Gewinne mitnehmen? Julius hat dazu eine überraschende Meinung, die ihr ebenfalls im Podcast hört. Abseits davon stellt Coinbase eine eierlegende Wollmilchsau vor, das US-Justizministerium lässt Polymarket vom Haken, Julius is still in love with DePIN – und Flo verliert Geld in einem Markt, in dem das eigentlich unmöglich ist.

‘Attention Is All You Need', co-wrote by Illia Polosukhin in 2017, laid the foundation for arguably one of the most consequential tech breakthroughs in our recent history. 1 year later, Illia founded Near AI, which later became Near Protocol. They were visionaries ahead of their time and, although AI took several more years before becoming a viable product, the experience of scaling databases would later prove valuable and applicable in blockchain world. As a result, Near Protocol aims to become the infrastructure layer for AI apps and the agentic economy. In order to achieve this, scaling was paramount, thus Near is one of the first blockchains to implement execution layer sharding, asynchronous execution and stateless validation, which brought the finality time down to 1.2 seconds, with a block time of 0.6 seconds.Topics covered in this episode:Bowen's backgroundNear's pivot from AI to blockchainsThe role of Near OneNear's tech stack upgradesOptimizing network architectureStateless validation & block propagationSharding & asynchronous executionMessage passing between shards & shard ‘equality'Challenges of implementing stateless validationApplications benefiting from Near's finality speedIntent-based infrastructureAI use cases on NearExpanding Near's ecosystemDevelopment challengesNear's vision and goalsEpisode links:Bowen Wang on XNear OneNear on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Send us a textMoney shouldn't be your startup motivation: a profound truth that Violetta Chekan, VC and entrepreneur with over 13 years of early-stage investing experience, shares from the beginning of our conversation. "A startup doesn't have any money until the exit. Exit will happen like in five, ten years," she explains, highlighting why founders need deeper motivation to sustain them through the entrepreneurial journey.Having started in venture capital at just 19 years old and closing her first deals by 21, Violetta brings a unique dual perspective as both investor and former founder. This combination has shaped her approach to evaluating startups, where she prioritizes team qualities over even the most brilliant ideas. "I try to have much more empathy as well to the founders, because I understand the journey," she reflects, describing the founder-investor relationship as a "marriage" that demands careful selection and mutual trust.Throughout our conversation, Violetta reveals the green and red flags she watches for when meeting founders. Transparency tops her list of essentials, while she's immediately wary of those who claim numerous business connections but can't produce evidence. For blockchain ventures specifically, she differentiates between artificial hype and genuine traction, especially in B2B solutions where she focuses her investments. "You need to have either pilot contracts with companies, either existing agreements, either letter of intent for commercial adoption," she advises founders looking to prove real-world value.Perhaps most valuably, Violetta shares how her own podcast journey has transformed from overcoming her fear of public speaking to becoming a powerful learning tool through conversations with experienced entrepreneurs and investors. Her story exemplifies the continuous growth mindset she values in founders—the willingness to listen, adapt, and evolve that sets successful startups apart.Whether you're a founder seeking investment or an aspiring investor, this episode offers rare insights into startup evaluation from someone who's experienced both triumph and failure from multiple perspectives.

Send us a textWhat happens when life's unexpected twists lead you down an entirely new creative path? In this captivating conversation with photographer Billy Dinh, we explore how a stolen camera became the catalyst for abandoning his successful illustration career and embracing photography—eventually leading him into the world of NFTs and Web3.Billy shares the fascinating story of his artistic evolution, from doodling as a child to freelancing for Marvel Comics, before finding his true calling behind the lens. After discovering NFTs through Instagram in March 2021, he initially approached the space as a collector before realizing the potential for authenticating and selling his own photographic work. Unlike many NFT origin stories that focus solely on financial gains, Billy was drawn by the technology's ability to provide verifiable attribution—addressing a longstanding concern for creators whose work is frequently appropriated without permission or compensation.What makes Billy's perspective particularly valuable is his balanced approach to creative entrepreneurship. While maintaining a successful career as a product manager in the tech industry, he's built a significant presence as a photographer in the NFT space. Drawing wisdom from Elizabeth Gilbert's book "Big Magic," Billy challenges the notion that legitimacy as an artist requires abandoning financial stability. This refreshing viewpoint offers encouragement to creators feeling pressured to "go all in" before they're ready.For artists navigating or considering entry into NFTs, Billy offers three essential pieces of advice: don't make digital assets your entire identity or financial strategy; practice patience as finding your audience may take time; and be prepared to develop promotion and community-building skills alongside your creative practice. His journey illustrates how Web3 empowers artists by removing traditional gatekeepers while simultaneously requiring them to take on new responsibilities.Ready to gain insights from someone who's successfully balancing creative passion with practical stability?

This interview is with Aleksandra Artamonovskaja https://www.aleksandra.art/amonovskaja, Head of Art at Trilitech of sustainable blockchain Tezos which is a R&D Hub in London. Aleksandra is a leader in the intersection of art and technology, with extensive experience in Web3 art projects. She is a prominent speaker, writer and educator on the role of decentralized technologies in the creative sector. Aleksandra holds an MA in Art Business from Sotheby's Institute of Art and co-founded Electric Artefacts in 2020, a curatorial advisory focused on digital art and blockchain projects. As the Ambassador and former Director of Partnerships at .ART, Aleksandra played a crucial role in launching the digital address for the arts in 2016, overseeing strategic partnerships to foster the embrace of technology in the art world, including collaborations with Rhizome and Ars Electronica, and spearheading the Digital Innovation in Art Award. Tell us about the blockchain Tezos and why it is the favored blockchain for artists Tezos has been favoured by artists since the launch of the first NFT platform in 2021, witnessing the influx of pioneering artists working with code, AI and other digital tools. Simultaneously artists from the global south found Tezos blockchain accessible thanks to its low minting fees and lack of gatekeeping across existing marketplaces. Thanks to Tezos Foundation supporting the arts direction - via educational programming for Museum professionals, platforms, residencies and artist programming, many artists were able to launch their careers and connect with like-minded peers to strengthen the community ties. The Tezos Foundation has been spearheading wider adoption, including being the first to present blockchain-based art at Art Basel in both Miami and Hong Kong. Through partnerships with prestigious institutions such as the Musée d'Orsay, the Serpentine Gallery, or the ArtScience Museum, internationally acclaimed cultural institutions have begun to embrace Web3 art. Notable collaborations include the Van Gogh Digital Collectibles at d'Orsay, MoMA's Postcard Project, and community programs like RGBMTL in Montreal or the Proof Of People festival in London. This institutional presence, combined with educational initiatives like the Vertical Crypto Residency and Academy by Blind Gallery, has made Tezos not just a marketplace but a cultural movement that prioritizes artists and genuine artistic innovation. Even Marina Abramovik chose Tezos for her "The Hero 25FPS" project in 2022, minting 6,500 unique frames from her 2001 film on the energy-efficient blockchain, and more recently for her 2025 "Marina Abramovik Element" project. Other high-profile initiatives include "Paintboxed - Tezos World Tour," a recent series of interactive events by ArtMeta that offered visitors the chance to experience the original Quantel Paintbox - the legendary digital art tool that created the MTV logo and David Hockney's first digital paintings. Why does Tezos Ecosystem support exhibits at Festivals, Conferences such as London Climate Action Week, Climate Week New York, United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30)? Tezos Foundation and Trilitech Arts team focus on initiatives that can help spotlight the creators in the Tezos Ecosystem via dozens of in-real-life events throughout the year that often also coincide with Art World and Web3 events. Some examples include Ribela Festival in Spain curated by Sutan, NFC Lisbon pop-up gallery curated by Xcollabz, Second Guess exhibition during Berlin Gallery Weekend curated by Anika Meier, Museum of the Moving Image year-long artist exhibitions in New York curated by Regina Harsanyi to name a few. How is the art NFT market performing this year? The market for art on the blockchain is steadily expanding. Art curators and journalists are also moving past writing about the clickbait gamified trading NFTs that fetched speculative numbers, towards spotlighting the talented artists who have decades of ex...

In this episode, in collaboration with the International Masters of Gaming Law (IMGL), Cristina Romero of Loyra Abogados, breaks down the complex, often-overlooked, world of fundraising in regulated iGaming markets.With nearly 15 years of experience advising on cross-border gaming finance and acquisitions, she explains why fresh capital is essential for driving innovation, market entry and long-term sustainability in an increasingly capital-intensive industry.From Spain and Sweden to Brazil and beyond, Cristina explores the investment landscape in both mature and emerging iGaming jurisdictions. She categorises the three dominant investor profiles, generalist private equity, gambling-savvy venture firms, and strategic industry players, unpacking what each seeks in a high-risk, high-reward environment.In the final segment, the conversation turns to the evolving relationship between traditional regulated operators and disruptive ‘adjacent' tech firms in Web3, blockchain and AI-powered marketing.

His philosophy of "always remember why you started" has guided him through the volatile Web3 landscape, where he found both supportive collectors and new possibilities for digital art.

Send us a textDigital ownership is evolving rapidly, and nowhere is this more evident than in Telegram's thriving ecosystem. Alex, CMO of DOGS and Open Builders, takes us on a journey through the revolutionary world of digital collectibles that's transforming how millions of users engage with Web3.The conversation begins with the fascinating origin story of DOGS, starting as a simple sketch by Pavel Durov himself for a charity auction supporting orphanages. This meaningful beginning blossomed into a movement that gathered millions of community members in just days and achieved a Binance listing within two months. The narrative then shifts to how stickers serve as powerful onboarding tools for Web2 users entering the blockchain space.What makes Telegram's digital collectibles truly unique is their built-in utility. Unlike traditional NFTs that struggled with practical applications, these stickers and collectibles integrate seamlessly into users' daily communications. "Collectibles on Telegram have this built-in utility from the get-go. They are very easy to flex, they have their place within the Telegram ecosystem and they always will be," Alex explains.Perhaps most fascinating is how these digital assets foster genuine community building. Owners of particular stickers have organically created exclusive chat groups, coordinated marketing efforts, produced merchandise, and even arranged real-life meetups. These communities blend crypto veterans with newcomers, facilitating knowledge transfer and creating shared experiences around digital assets—something Alex notes "many meme coins would be jealous to see."The market performance speaks for itself, with some stickers seeing price increases of up to 44,000% and trading volumes hitting all-time highs on secondary markets. Major collaborations with brands like Pudgy Penguins and Doodles demonstrate the growing appeal of this digital ownership model.As the TON blockchain ecosystem continues evolving, gaming collectibles emerge as the next frontier, with players already trading rare skins and items even before official marketplaces launch. For entrepreneurs, this represents an unprecedented opportunity to define entirely new categories in an ecosystem where "every product you ship is something entirely new" that could potentially "redefine the whole industry."This episode was recorded through a Descript call on June 10, 2025.
