EP.51 [EN] - Ryan Li: Building a User-centric and Self-sovereign Social Graph Cyberconnect

Hey guys! You’re listening to the 60th episode, which is also the last episode of 51%. I’m sunsetting this show and launching a brand new podcast brand, HODLong (which is homophonic to 后浪, or “next wave” in Mandarin). In the new podcast brand, I’ll continue to shed light to the Asia-based Web3 world, but will expand my interviewees to the broader Web3 community, whether that being operators, investors, or ecosystem participants of other forms. Some of my friends would also join me as co-hosts in some episodes. 

It was an amazing journey to have done the 60 episodes of 51%, and I wouldn’t be able to advance the production without your feedback and suggestion. In the future production of HODLong, I would very much appreciate your continuous feedback. The subscription link to HODLong is in the show notes - Can’t wait to see you guys on the other side! 

大家好！在陪伴大家走过了过去一年多之际，即日起五十一说将退役，我将成立一个全新的播客品牌《后浪》（与英文中的“Hodl long” 谐音）。在新的播客品牌里，我将持续对于亚洲的 Web3 世界投以关注，但《后浪》的受访人群体将会是更广范围的 Web3 社区运营者、投资人、和其他各种生态参与者。我也会邀请一些朋友作为联合主持在部分节目里出现。

过去的六十期五十一说的成长，离不开所有听众的持续反馈和建议。在《后浪》品牌的制作中，也十分希望大家能持续给予反馈。《后浪》的订阅链接在本期节目的节目笔记中，非常期待在新的节目里见到大家！

At the beginning of the episode, David and Justin touched upon their backgrounds (Twitch, Shopify, etc.,), and how those experience impacted their view on the direction of Fractal. They mentioned a couple ways how they think Fractal should be serving the game developers and engaging the platform users. We also compared the game developers in the traditional gaming studios versus web3 native game developers.

We spent some time to discuss the role of Fractal NFT in terms of defining Fractal as a "meta-game", and how they expect the NFT could incentivize users to have active interaction with games on the platform. We also talked about the feedback loop of mini-games versus big triple A games, and how they expect the two types of games to play out. Furthermore, we chatted about the question of community governance for games and for Fractal. 

It was refreshing to hear these insights from the veterans of the web era!

在这一集的开头，David 和 Justin 谈到了他们的背景（Twitch、Shopify 等），以及这些经历如何影响他们对 Fractal 未来发展方向的看法。他们提到了他们认为 Fractal 应该如何服务于游戏开发者和与平台用户交互的几种方式。我们还比较了传统游戏工作室的游戏开发者和 web3 的原生游戏开发者。

我们花了一些时间讨论了 Fractal NFT 在将 Fractal 定义为“超级游戏”方面的作用，以及他们期望该 NFT 如何激励用户与平台上的游戏进行积极互动。我们还讨论了迷你游戏与大型 3A 游戏的反馈循环，以及他们认为这两种游戏未来的发展。此外，我们还谈到了对于游戏和对于Fractal而言的社区治理问题。

从这些互联网老兵听到这些见解令人耳目一新！

In this episode, Cindy and David talked about how Drift's Dynamic vAMM and their recently launched Decentralized Limit Order Book (which uses a keeper network that executes queued trades against the DAMM) work. They discussed their consideration for assets that Drift chooses to support. 

They also shared some milestones that Drift achieved over the past few months, and how they think about their GTM strategies, including their multi-chain strategy. Specifically, they discussed the products they'd like to support down the road, and explained why they prioritize certain products / markets over the others. At the end  we chatted about some challenges they have encountered running a decentralized exchange. 

The discussion was a lot of fun. You should also definitely try out their new product!

Ryan Li joined this episode as  the CTO and cofounder of Cyberconnect. He and the CEO Wilson Wei and COO Shiyu Zhang used to be the cofounders of DLive and Lino blockchain. 

We kicked off the discussion with some review on things that he thought they did right and wrong 3 years ago when they were building DLive (the Web3 Twitch), and how those experience helped them today on Cyberconnect.

We then went into the details of Cyberconnect's technical infrastructure; particularly how they're leveraging Ceramic, a decentralized mutable database as their building block, and how Cyberconnect as a user-centric decentralized indexing protocol is different from some of the contract-centric decentralized indexing protocols. We also talked about some of the potential challenges that Ceramic as an brand-new network could face, and how the Cyberconnect team is working hand-in-hand with Ceramic to improve on those things. Ryan also explained their approach of "progressive decentralization" to mitigate some of the short-term difficulties in network scalability or stability, with the acknowledgement of the potential points of failures in these workarounds.

At the end we talked about the exciting use cases of Cyberconnect.

Ryan Li 作为 Cyber​​connect 的 CTO 和联合创始人加入了这一集。他和 CEO Wilson Wei 和 COO Shiyu Zhang 曾是 DLive 和 Lino 区块链的联合创始人。

我们回顾了 3 年前他们在做 DLive（Web3 Twitch）时Ryan觉得他们做对和做错的事情，并讨论了这些经验如何帮助他们在今天搭建Cyber​​connect 。

然后我们详细讨论了 Cyber​​connect 的技术基础设施；特别是他们如何利用去中心化可变数据库 Ceramic作为基础，以及 Cyber​​connect 作为围绕用户为中心的去中心化索引协议，与某些围绕合约为中心的去中心化索引协议有何不同。我们还谈到了 Ceramic 作为一个全新网络可能面临的一些潜在挑战，以及 Cyber​​connect 团队如何与 Ceramic 携手改进这些事情。 Ryan 还解释了他们的“渐进式去中心化”方法，以缓解一些短期的扩容和稳定性问题，并列出了这些解决方案的潜在失败点。

最后，我们谈到了 Cyber​​connect 令人兴奋的用例。

In this episode we hosted three guests: Yawn & Jerry, the cofounders of STEPN, and Jason, the founder of Folius Ventures and a lead investor in the seed round of STEPN. 

We started the discussion with why Yawn and Jerry, both as serial entrepreneurs, decided to go after the start-up idea of Move2Earn. Three of them also discussed their view on why they believe that the team at STEPN best suits to deliver a lifestyle and social application with a huge potential of mass adoption. 

The cofounders shared some of their key insights of team management and traction boostrapping. We then shifted our focus of discussion to the economics design in Web3 games. They also shared their early entrepreneurial experience. It's one of the most insightful chats that I ever had at 51%.
