    Chris Skinner: Power of People with Bitcoin, Power of State is too Great!

    Chris Skinner: Power of People with Bitcoin, Power of State is too Great!

    Chris Skinner is known as one of the most influential people in technology, and as an independent commentator on fintech through his blog, The Finanser.com. His latest book (sixteenth!) is called Doing Digital. He is Chair of Nordic Future Innovation, is a non-executive director of 11:FS and on the advisory boards of many FinTech and financial firms. Mr. Skinner has been an advisor to the United Nations, the White House, the World Bank and the World Economic Forum. He is a visiting lecturer with Cambridge University, as well as, a TEDx speaker. In recent years, he has been voted one of the UK’s foremost fintech observers by The Telegraph and one of the most influential people in financial technology by the Wall Street Journal’s Financial News and Thomson Reuters. Chris is also a successful children's author and co-founder of The Portrait Foundation, a non-profit platform to encourage children and the arts. 

    1. Let’s start with the recent crash in crypto, in your blog you state that you believe the end-game will be a hybrid model of CBDCs, stablecoins and cryptocurrencies. I found is fascinating that you state that too many people believe these currencies are all about HODLing (in the crypto slang it’s about keeping them as an investment) instead of what currencies are really about, which is allowing the exchange of value to buy and sell products and services. It’s all about creating currencies that work for value exchange in a networked world.
      Would you like an opportunity to give this more depth for those just beginning to invest in cryptocurrency and please define CBDC (central back digital currency)?
    2. What is your take on a global coin and how this would affect governments if it’s realized? A coin that can be traded anywhere, anytime, in real-time with anyone.
    3. Your book, Digital Human, explores the transformations that are sweeping through all spheres of life: the domination of global digital giants; the advent of new financial structures (FinTech); the disruption brought about by Bitcoin; the rise of robots; and the fall of banks.
      A standout line from your book: not only will everyone on the planet be connected digitally, they can be raised out of poverty through inclusion. Can we dive into your thoughts on blockchain, cryptocurrency and how this may level the playing field for those in poverty?
    4. Digital for Good looks at everything from how banking plays a role in the climate emergency through the FinTech world using technology to overcome issues of inequality and inclusion. 
      I’d like to understand this intersection, can you share your vision for Fintech in lifting us out of this global climate crisis and possibly helping marginalized lives?

    What was the impetus for designing this? Was it missing for enterprise and smaller businesses? And did you build it yourself?

    How do you de-mystify and de-stigmatise blockchain for businesses? What are the nuances that work so well with SaaS that make it uniquely perfect for companies moving from Web2 to Web3?

    And the recent downturn in the market, how did that affect conversations with your clients?

    Will Pemble: Backyard Rollercoasters and Digital NFT Simulator Experiences

    Will Pemble: Backyard Rollercoasters and Digital NFT Simulator Experiences

    Will Pemble is a Web1 Pioneer, a Web2 Leader, and a Web3 Futurist. He built and sold Web.com, one of the first and largest domain name registrars on earth. As a Top 50 Domain Name Millionaire, technology futurist, and serial entrepreneur, Will has been building and growing tech companies since before the days of Web1.

    Will’s latest adventure is CoasterPunks.com, an NFT Collection on a mission to build the world's first carbon neutral roller coaster thrill ride, a 200,000 watt solar farm, and an 8 episode educational TV series executive produced by Mythbuster Kari Byron and EXPLR Media.

    Will has built five backyard roller coasters and been featured on Good Morning America, Discovery Channel, Netflix, Facebook Watch, and dozens of television shows worldwide.

    1. New adventurers in Web 3 seem to think that it is separate and built independently of Web2, being a pioneer of Web1 and a leader in Web2, what do you think?
    2. Digging into CoasterPunks, your NFT collection, is a digital and phigital experience on a roller coaster? and is the digital footprint carbon neutral bc it minted on a blockchain that is by design low gas?
    3. If phitigal experience, is this at Disney? or any other amusement parks?

    Left-field questions:

    1. Your solar farm will support how many acres? And can people buy an NFT to have a stake in the generated power and/or the dollars created? OR a stake in the farm it supports? Like a shared agriculture model?
    2. What is the TV series you are creating and will it be on the blockchain?

    Ridhima Ahuja Kahn: Dapper Labs make the Top Shots using Flow Blockchain and serve up Brand Partnerships like Cryptokitties

    Ridhima Ahuja Kahn: Dapper Labs make the Top Shots using Flow Blockchain and serve up Brand Partnerships like Cryptokitties

    Ridhima Ahuja Kahn is the VP of Business Development at Dapper Labs. Her focus is helping build meaningful partnerships with the world’s top IPs, creators, and social media platforms as they look to build blockchain-based experiences.

    Prior to Dapper Labs, she was a Partner at Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) where she focused on sports, social, media & entertainment, collectibles (both in digital & physical), hospitality/travel and food.

    She has also spent time on the investment teams at the Hewlett Foundation & Grovenor Capital Management.

    - Tell me about how you shifted into this role at Dapper Labs and was the inspiration behind TopShot birthed at Dapper or was your sports background the impetus to this idea?

    - What does fandom look like in metaverse ? What does TopShot and Cryptokitties experiences look like there? And do you think experiences are the magic of an NFT and your utility? What do experiences look like in the Metaverse?

    - Flow blockchain technology is unique to Dapper, reducing the friction of Web 2 native users and Web 3 adventurers, do you think this shift in creating your own blockchain has been part of the the secret sauce for Dapper Labs?

    - Digital Fashion will likely see a ton of growth due to the concept of wearables and shopping in the Metaverse: Luxury brands will soar to the top fast bc of virtue signaling and the marketing machine they are built on. Can Dapper help creators or smaller brands with NFTs for this use case?

    - Because we are also an education platform on Culture Factor, can you define DAO  and is Dapper getting involved in the DAO space?

    - And what would a brainstorming session at Dapper look like in terms of iterating on best use cases, verticals or simply coming up with experiences?

    S4E7 - Employment Disputes in the MetaVerse (with Tarun Tawakley)

    S4E7 - Employment Disputes in the MetaVerse (with Tarun Tawakley)

    In this episode, you’ll learn how employment law might cope – or not cope – with problems presented by emerging technology, including:-

    • How people’s choice of avatars can throw up diversity issues.  What happens if employees or managers ‘try on’ different skin colours? 
    • Should a pregnant woman at a job interview hide the fact she’s pregnant with her avatar, or use an avatar which shows her pregnancy?  
    • How does the duty to make reasonable adjustments engage when a physically disabled employee uses an able-bodied avatar?
    • Could inappropriate behaviour with an AI character (so not a real person) give rise to charges of misconduct?

    Daniel discusses the topic with Tarun Tawakley from Lewis Silkin.

    Daniel Botha: HashLips YouTuber for NFT Artists plus Roadmaps & Community

    Daniel Botha: HashLips YouTuber for NFT Artists plus Roadmaps & Community

    NFTs are rapidly evolving - and so is this space. HashLips is driving transformation and bridging gaps through accessibility, education, and empowerment. The name is an alias for his YouTube channel, and for his NFT Art Engine as well as an NFT collection. It is also an art movement. Dig a bit deeper, and you realize that HashLips is an advocate for blockchain technology advancement, too. Most especially, it is a community of like-minded adventurers.

    HashLips was born on YouTube in 2021. The channel already has over 2 million total video views. However, HashLips isn’t merely a library of ‘how-to’ videos. It's far more important. HashLips is known by the NFT community for making things accessible that simply weren't before, thus leading to the alias HashLips being spoken by people who have been enabled by the open-source nature of what Daniel does. HashLips now being an Idea and a concept for people to learn from, a community was formed.

    Art Engine.

    “It was written to facilitate the creation of NFTs and generate artworks,” said Daniel. “I wrote the program to be user-friendly. The audience loves to learn about NFTS, create NFTs, and learn how to code. So, this was a way for anyone to learn and generate their own NFT collections. The HashLips Art Engine is a way to generate a lot of images quickly and easily. It was created and made open-source.

    The Art Engine has now enabled the creation of more than 6,000 NFT collections to date – all from within the HashLips community.

    One of the most captivating aspects of the NFT space is that it’s still evolving and highly fluid. What’s HashLips’ future? Advocating accessibility and inclusivity.

    As Daniel would say:

    “Just because you don’t understand how this technology works, doesn’t mean that you should be left behind.”

    What I learned about Daniel that isn't in his bio:

    He's been following his true north as an artist since childhood.

    He took inspiration from his father who was a classically trained jewelry artist.

    Daniel was surrounded by materials that were transformed into beauty and he witnessed the creative process as metal morphed into a ring.

    While looking for gallery representation, he received a mentor, and opportunity to travel to China.

    As a rite of passage, he left home and found himself in a job where he was introduced to java script. And he a big believer in vision boards and the power of positive thinking.

    1. All this said, Daniel, can you share your foray into crypto, token and NFTS at this point?
    2. Mentorship and studying in China, was this the impetus of teaching on YouTube?
    3. Can you describe The HashLips Art Engine?
    4. Are you teaching about blockchain technology and walking people through the process of creating an NFT?
    5. Why open-source?
    6. Roadmaps and utilities, let's talk about the guilt or need for these pieces of the process.
    7. New NFT collection
    8. Does math appear as art to you?
    9. Vision boards and mindset

    Demystifying VR Training with Lee Gregory

    Demystifying VR Training with Lee Gregory

    VR Headsets? Avatars? Metaverse? You may have heard these terms, but aren't sure how you might apply them in your learning solutions.  You may still believe they are too expensive and out of reach for you and your team.  In this episode we wanted to help training professionals understand where the VR industry is at and if anything has changed over the last few years.

    I was pleasantly surprised by the number of chat room attendees who had experience building VR learning solutions. That, in and of itself, is a huge change from our previous experiences talking about VR on IDIODC.

    Solving specific business problems requiring training of physical, real world, problems is by far the most used case of virtual reality, We talked about how these technologies can help you achieve better L&D outcomes and some of the many use cases. But today’s VR training isn’t just for technical skills training – many companies use VR for onboarding, DEI, communication, and leadership training, whether stand-alone or in blended learning scenarios. Several attendees mentioned their experiences in these unique scenarios.

    Lee Gregory, from Immerse, joined us to share his expertise and experience using these technologies with Immerse clients.  You might be surprised by how they’re building a marketplace for virtual reality developers. Maybe someday soon we’ll see VR training similar to the video style training we see on platforms like LinkedIn learning.

    It’s hard to say where it will lead. But the one thing we do know is that it’s an extremely powerful tool for learning and while it still may be a little pricey, it continues to get cheaper and companies are asking for it.

    Alexander Amartei: Antara the First Hollywood Movie Funded by NFTS

    Alexander Amartei: Antara the First Hollywood Movie Funded by NFTS

    Alexander Amartei is the producer of 'Antara', a Hollywood epic that is the first major movie in history to be funded via NFTs. The Antara Movie NFT by Arabian Camels has ushered in a new paradigm shift that is setting a whole new culture in the world of Hollywood, finance, NFTs and DeFi.

    Questions:

    Let’s talk about that paradigm shift!

    Starting with Hollywood and the making of a movie, can you share the difference between the classical model of making a movie and the NFT model. And would this be considered fractional NFT’s?

    Will this provide both democratization, making it available to all, and decentralization, making it accessible to all? And possibly explain DeFi here too!

    I believe the magic is in the utility and the roadmaps for projects. How did you build out these features and perks? According to your road map, you have utilities like Ferrari’s and gold bars, how are you able to do this?

    Are you single-handedly building the Discord community and fundraising?

    What measures are you taking for those not interested in discord

    Will you be acting in the movie as I noticed from your profile you love fencing, horses and horseback archery?

    Left field question: Could an AI model replicate your movements and have it played out in the movie?

    Character development, hero, victory and poetry is discussed. 

    Influencers and A-Listers

    Speed of innovation and cost of creating a movie.

    Is there a goal date to begin production? And will you only begin once all NFT’s have been sold?

    Victoria Fuller: Playboy Playmate NFT License from Hugh Hefner

    Victoria Fuller: Playboy Playmate NFT License from Hugh Hefner

    Victoria Fuller has always been an artist, from the time she grew up in Santa Barbara, CA. and during her time as a Playboy Playmate where she was the centerfold in 1996 and in the year 2000. Victoria became the only artist ever licensed by Playboy. She traveled as a bunny and a professional artist in galleries around the world. Victoria became reality royalty after the Amazing Race, Girls Next Door, Kendra show, Celebrity Fear Factor, Battle of the Network Reality Stars. And she ran a licensing company called American Pop.

    After Hugh Hefner passed away along with the onset of Covid, Victoria needed to use her creative talent to survive. She found NFTs in 2017 and formed Gatefold Labs in 2021.

    As Founder and CEO of Gatefolds, she is following her dreams of transcending art into a global ecosystem and leaving no bunny behind as she shares their bond while helping them control their Intellectual Property with blockchain technology.

    1. What is the process of going from canvas to a digital asset like an NFT? Feel free to get granular here.
    2. Do you feel pressure or empowerment as the only artist with the trademark to produce the Rogue Bunnies?
    3. How are you using this niche to reinvent the playmates?
    4. All these ladies are modern day entrepreneurs. Their lives likely do not resemble that Playmate era, how are they using this new platform? Is it complimenting their personal businesses?
    5. I understand you are onboarding each and every one of them, this is a different job than being the artist or the Founder and CEO of Gatefolds, do you like this part?
    6. In the NFT world, we talk about road maps and utilities. Can you share your overall goals, if there is a social good component and any perks for those that purchase an NFT Rogue Bunny?
    7. We will be having a Launch Party with all the Rogue Bunnies together on April 15. Presale 15 and sale 17. It will be streamed Live on the Tiatro Network on the BitcoinSV Blockchain. It is a rare opportunity to see all the NFT Bunnies, hear their stories and party virtually with them. What is the date for our Launch party?? How many Rogue bunnies will come?

    Tickets will be made available, follow us to enjoy a rare opportunity to bridge the Web3 world with the most sought after ladies on the planet!

    Gil Perry: From Special Forces to the Metaverse

    Today’s guest is Gil Perry, Co-Founder and CEO of D-ID the technology company behind the viral MyHeritage clips where old photos have been brought to life.

    A former Commander in the Special Forces unit of the Israeli Defence Forces, Gil and his army friends and co-founders started D-ID to work on protecting images and videos from facial recognition software but not long after and when Covid came, they pivoted their startup to focus on creating a suite of what they call Creative Reality tools that use their deep learning algorithms, image processing and neural networks to create high quality videos from still images. If you haven’t tried it yet, head to the MyHeritage site and give it a go - I can only describe the experience as magical.

    I have long-been interested in how we can preserve the memory of our loved ones so Gil and I talk about this, as well as holograms, deepfakes, how and why the company pivoted, what lesson Gil took from the special forces to entrepreneurship and, of course, D-ID’s incredible work – from bringing history to life, right through to the metaverse.

    Enjoy!

    About Divi

    Established in 2017, the Divi team have been focused on solving the issues of usability and accessibility to cryptocurrencies that prevent mainstream adoption.

    We realized early on that the industry wasn’t equipped to scale with the demand and popularity it experienced. Hence our philosophy to create software solutions that make cryptocurrency easier to use and access for users of all levels of technical expertise.

    Starting with the feature that attracts most people to the space - earning rewards, the team developed the first and only genuinely one-click masternode software that enables users of any skill level to begin earning rewards in an instance. With the ability to be launched on any device from a home computer to mobile phone, registered users can earn with Divi.

    We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved thus far and it is really just the beginning. We hope that you will join us on this journey!

    Along with your role to simplify technology, I’d like to breakdown a few topics for my audience that are in the learning stages:

    Blockchain: your definition and why you think it’s a game-changer for currency and commerce

    What is a node?

    Smart Wallets: the design of a smart wallet and why they might not all be created the same.  And is that problematic? Enterprise integrations of the Divi Wallet.

    You developed the Divi Wallet and implemented a reward system into it.  Do you think the Web3 adopters enjoy and respond better psychologically to adding a gaming component?

    How do you make community accessible in platforms like Discord and Telegram.  Are they a necessity to the NFT world?

    Have they made your product offerings more robust by having this constant touchpoint with the consumer?

    As a DJ and music producer, are you planning to use your MP3 files in the NFT space as product to mint or a utility for collaboration with other artists?

    The Franklins: NFT Marriage of Code and Art for Social Good

    The Franklins: NFT Marriage of Code and Art for Social Good

    Elizabeth Franklin (aka “Geekella”) is a celebrated two-dimensional artist known for her generous application of vibrant, vivid colors, as well as her use of varied and unique artistic media. Elizabeth's whimsical portrayals of the world that inspires her have earned her victories and recognition through displays and contests from her early childhood into adulthood. Unsatisfied with restricting herself to traditional canvases, Elizabeth has demonstrated her transcendence of everyday media through such venues as the shoe company TOMS, and later she collaborated with the founder of Artonit Makeup. Most recently, Elizabeth found herself captivated by the NFT space. She created the artwork for the generative Dreamy Geeks NFT collection and is in the early stages of creating artwork for other NFT projects.

    Jason Franklin is a forward thinker, servant leader, and humanitarian. He is determined to use his talents and skills to make a positive impact on humanity, driven by his yearning desire to make the world a better place. Profoundly interested in a variety of topics such as blockchain, web3, the metaverse, NFTs, artificial intelligence, machine learning, hackathons to make a few things! He understandings the technical side of NFTs, appreciating the endless amount of potential use cases, and staying true to his desire change the world for the better, he proposed to his wife – he proposed that she help him create an NFT collection that would marry their talents in order to bring his visions to fruition. She created the art, and he wrote the code.

    If we separate art from the tech to start this interview, Elizabeth, please share your journey as an artist and Jason, your tech journey.

    You embarked on NFTs, how did this start and can you share the process of the Dreamy Geeks

    Jason, your early exposure to hack-athons for social good implanted the idea behind your NFT model having a purpose, how did you use code to do this? And how did you build it into your project?

    What is and how is a generative collection built?

    What is the social good piece built into your collection?

    Will you continue to iterate on the Dreamy Geeks or are you creating other collections?

    Some NFT artists use Discord channels to build communities.  Are you using this site or some other way or a combination? And what has been most effective?

    1. Is it a barrier of entry to have to create a community there?
    2. Is it necessary for a 1:1 artist to have a coder/developer? Is this a barrier to entry?

    Give a listen to this episode, Brian Fanzo bought a Dreamy Geek NFTs on his show too.

    Abraxas Higgins: The Real Currency is Community. Influence, Brands and NFTs

    Abraxas Higgins: The Real Currency is Community. Influence, Brands and NFTs

    Abraxas Higgins is a thought leader, impact influencer and social audio strategist. He is the UK’s largest and most notable Social Audio creator, boasting a Clubhouse following of 460,000. He’s also become a leading Social Audio Strategist, offering consultation and ideation sessions for companies and high-net-worth individuals. He’s worked with multiple brands to date such as SXSW, Adobe, Ted Baker and Amazon Prime Video.

    And the world's first social audio influencer! Hello Clubhouse!

    So, Abraxas, 7 years in asset management at BlackRock, the largest global asset management company.  Many would say you have landed in the best place, how could you ever leave that? What shifted in your mind at that 7 year mark?

    What motivated you to jump?

    When did you see the connection of building your social audio community that cared about fashion and the subsequent brand collaborations Ted Baker and others? Was it an AHA moment?

    Moved to LA as a digital strategist for a rapper, David Sabastian. What were you doing in this role, was it scary, did it feel natural, or were you completely breaking new ground?

    Leaning into fashion, you represent British luxury clothing brand, Ted Baker and you manifested the IWC Schaffhausen collaboration, can you share that story about the watch brand?

    Left field question:

    So if someone can buy an IWC brand NFT they can establish and authenticate their purchase.  Utilities (or perks) can be created to further the buyer experience. This can create added loyalty and exclusivity, especially in the area of luxury brands. Will you bridge NFT’s with them? Create utility and experiences with IWC or any of the brands you represent?

    Conversation about Crypto Punks and Bored Apes, generative projects.

    Are you representing other creators and NFT artists to help secure brand deals? Or is it more about highlighting them on social audio?

    Working with blind people or those with disabilities to immerse them into community in social audio.

    I know as a podcaster I’m thinking about the MP3/RSS files becoming NFTS and how that looks for audio community and utility. What are you looking to create in social audio and the NFT space? And is it why you have a Rally creator coin?

    What’s next for Abraxas? Are you expanding your offerings with your existing brand deals, or do you have new projects you can share?

    Podcast? What's it called and what will be the focus?

    On a lighter note, I noticed on Twitter that you post about food. Are you a vegan and do you enjoy cooking? What are you having for lunch today?
