| S4 E14 | How Web3 Empowers Independent Artists w/Ibn Inglor | 18 May 2023 | 00:50:18 | |
On this episode of Rehash, we caught up with recording artist, Ibn Inglor, to discuss the intersection of web3, music, and community building. Ibn has been involved in the web3 music space since 2021 when he launched a Mirror crowdfund to support the production of his EP, Danger Zone. Ibn’s musical journey started during his childhood in Chicago’s Altgeld Gardens - a neighborhood he wouldn't leave until his later teen years. As he continued to pursue music, he also became interested in the web3 space and NFTs thanks to a tip from a friend. After taking time to learn more about blockchain and the underlying technology, Ibn decided to dive into web3 music in 2021. He has been creating and experimenting ever since. During our discussion we talk about navigating web3 and all of its challenges as an artist, experimenting with new tech, the importance of forming authentic relationships, and Ibn gives new web3 creators some advice on how to get started in the space.

On this episode of Rehash, we sit down with Sarah Meyohas and Mitchell Chan, conceptual artists who experiment at the edges of web3 technology. You may know of Sarah from some of her projects such as Bitchcoin, Speculations and Stock Performance, and you might recognize Mitchell from some of his projects like IKB or Digital Zones.

In this DAO focused episode we sit down with the Tally Guys - Frisson and Tommy, co-hosts of DAO Talk, and co-creators of Content Guild.

Regardless of whether you have a wallet, on desktop or mobile, you shouldn’t have to be an expert to get into the space and Privy makes it easy.

On this episode of Rehash we sat down with Paris Rouzati, a web3 investor and advisor. Paris is heavily involved with marketing for Aave and Lens, where she organizes Raaves and leads the creation of Lens and Aave swag. Paris shares her web3 journey and gives listeners some insight into her investment thesis (or lack thereof) and calls out some amazing projects in the space. We discuss marketing, paid marketing, growth strategies, and how marketing for a web3 native audience is quite different from web2. Paris gives us the inside scoop on how Lens and Aave go about creating swag that people actually love wearing, and throwing parties that everyone wants to attend. She shares how intentional the Aave and Lens teams are about community building and outreach, always maintaining a mindset of human-first-marketing-second, and of course, keeping it fun. We also analyze the consumer and developer sides of web3 and discuss the importance of human-centered design. We talk about Lens, Farcaster and web3 social as a whole, as well the impacts of social media on mental health. Paris emphasizes the importance of maintaining a healthy mindset, sharing her tips for combating burnout - logging off, sharing how you’re feeling, and enjoying life outside of crypto.

| S3 E13 | Access and Inclusion Through Policy w/Sumedha Deshmukh | 08 Dec 2022 | 00:48:06 | |
On this episode of Rehash we sat down with Sumedha Deshmukh from Crypto Council for Innovation to discuss the intersection of blockchain, policy, inclusion, and accessibility. Sumedha first became interested in blockchain through the lens of how it could support international development. As a natural skeptic, she began researching blockchain on her own before turning her findings into a video guide for other development practitioners. Over the course of this project, Sumedha became even more interested in the blockchain space and later made the jump by joining the World Economic Forum’s Blockchain and Digital Assets team in 2018. Diana starts off our discussion with a big question - wen meaningful policy? Sumedha explains how crypto’s history has been ironically plagued by barriers to entry and how that has impacted its adoption by the general public as well as its treatment by legislators. Although the space has developed drastically over the last decade, regulatory organizations are still waiting to see what real world impact blockchain could have before they give it more of their attention. Sumedha also gives us her thoughts around how policy makers could begin protecting consumers without stifling innovation. During our conversation, we also dive into redistributing wealth and power, self custody, diversity in web3, and how mainstream news cycles influence crypto policy.

| S3 E12 | Let's Talk About Mental Health in Web3 w/Satvik Sethi | 01 Dec 2022 | 00:59:10 | |
On this episode of Rehash we sat down with Satvik Sethi, Co-founder and CEO of Joincircle, a social media platform for web3. Satvik has been a mental health advocate since he was in middle school when he became the go-to person in his class to talk to when peers were struggling with mental health. He carried this passion for mental health advocacy with him through college and eventually found himself continuing to do so in the web3 space. It’s no secret that those of us who work in and engage with the industry are susceptible to burnout, regardless of market conditions. Satvik addresses this and explains the importance of mental health in general, and specifically how it applies to the web3 space. We discuss the value of open conversation around politics and agree that removing politics from web3 is impossible, as much as we’d sometimes like to. Rather, we should (kindly) embrace sharing the opinions we have in order to move the space forward. We switch gears to talk about SocialFi (which if you haven’t heard of it, don’t worry Satvik has you covered) and we discuss the “ultimate web3 social media platform,” Joincircle. Satvik shares his views on progressive decentralization and sufficient decentralization, saying it’s important for a project to start out centralized in order to be productive, but should still have its sight set on ultimately decentralizing and giving back to the community. During our talk, we also touch on the topics of interoperability, fundraising, and ever-present FOMO.

| S3 E11 | The Ultimate Use Case for DAOs w/Aaron Soskin | 17 Nov 2022 | 01:12:56 | |
On this episode of Rehash, we sat down with Aaron Soskin, founder of Govrn. Govrn is a DAO contribution platform designed to enable DAOs to be defined by their contributors. By recording your contributions and allowing other DAO members to attest to those contributions, you can maintain ownership over your work and keep an on-chain record of the value you provide to DAOs. In this DAO forward episode, we cover a variety of topics from rage quitting and politics to the ways in which Govrn can help DAOs and their contributors. Aaron stresses the importance of DAOs being defined by the emergent properties that arise as the result of contributors providing value, and we discuss how Govrn allows contributors to own their work and get more meaningful validation for the work they do. We discuss the pros and cons of rage quitting, and Aaron explains why he’s a rage quit maxi. He also explains why it’s important for DAOs to enable divergence and convergence and shares that rage quitting doesn’t have to be permanent. We later explore the human aspect of DAOs and discuss the nuances of decentralization, acknowledging that technology can’t solve all human coordination issues. We discuss DAOs in the light of politics and what that intersection could look like. We acknowledge the recent events (FTX) and discuss what the future may hold for DAOs in the coming months and years - agreeing that not all DAOs need to be permanent. Aaron closes with speaking so passionately that his mic crumbles, starting SexySongDAO, answering some fun questions, and leaving listeners with how to get started using Govrn.

| S3 E10 | The Evolution of Media w/Steph Alinsug | 10 Nov 2022 | 00:54:05 | |
In this episode of Rehash, we sat down with Steph Alinsug, Media Steward at Seed Club - an accelerator program for DAOs and DAO builders. When Steph first heard about crypto from a podcast, the concept of DAOs and social tokens clicked for her right away. With previous careers as a branding specialist and a community organizer, she was always looking for a way to bring those two passions together. Web3 offered an opportunity to do just that. Steph’s community-first branding approach lent itself nicely to her role at Seed Club, and she realized that the content she was creating wasn’t just content for the sake of marketing, but media that leveraged storytelling and community building to impact people with aligned values. This key difference is precisely what distinguishes content as we know it in web2 from the decentralized media of web3. We dive into all of the nuances surrounding content, branding, marketing, media, decentralized media, web3 media, media in DAOs, and decentralized content creation. Although we use some of these terms interchangeably, Steph breaks down how she distinctly thinks about them, and we discuss Rafa’s project Folklore - a leading example of community-first media. We double click on the human side of all of this as we discuss the inevitable hierarchy in DAOs, how media DAOs can progressively decentralize, ownership over the media you create, and the role curation plays in the decentralization of media. We also talk more broadly about conflict resolution and how imperative human to human relationships are as we explore new ways to organize ourselves and produce meaningful work in DAOs. We close out our conversation with a few fun questions and Steph tells us how to find her and Seed Club on Twitter.

| S3 E9 | Building the Digital City of Cities w/Julia Rosenberg & Chase Chapman | 03 Nov 2022 | 00:59:42 | |
In this episode of Rehash, we sat down with Julia Rosenberg and Chase Chapman from Metropolis to discuss all things DAOs, governance, and Metropolis. Julia started learning about crypto after being frustrated with web2 scaling models in her startup journey, which eventually led her to co-founding Metropolis (previously Orca Protocol.) Chase fell down the crypto rabbit hole while working in marketing and data analytics. After graduating college she dove headfirst into the DAO ecosystem and started contributing to DAOs full time. She eventually started her own podcast, On the Other Side, where she talks about the human aspects of web3. Eventually she met Julia and fell in love with Orca Protocol (now Metropolis) before joining the team there. Julia and Chase lay some groundwork for the episode by defining governance, not only in the DAO ecosystem, but much more broadly. We compare DAOs to digital cities and discuss the transition from corporate structures to DAOs, which transfers more ownership to members and gives them more autonomy over their work. We touch on the complexity of DAOs, the ways in which they are failing, the ways in which they can benefit humanity, and how Metropolis is enabling them to achieve better governance. Julia and Chase explain the Metropolis rebrand and help listeners understand how the protocol works on a very basic and tangible level. We discuss the importance of organizations being human centric and scalable, and the two share how they have seen DAOs evolve as well as how they think they’ll evolve in the coming years.

| S3 E8 | You Can't Buy Community w/Parker Jay-Pachirat | 27 Oct 2022 | 01:08:52 | |
Parker Jay-Pachirat is Head of Community and on the Investment Team at Fintech Collective, a DeFi investment firm. She is also part of the Founding Team of Boys Club, a community and DAO helping women and non-binary individuals navigate web3. Parker had a pretty untraditional journey into web3, with a background in humanities and having studied critical theory at a liberal arts college. However, when Parker first learned about blockchain technology, she was so hooked that she decided to pursue a career as a crypto VC, and against all odds, she broke into her dream industry. We dive right into the episode by discussing off chain influences on DAO governance. Parker believes that code isn’t law (despite popular belief) and embraces the nuances of humanity in complex decision making. She believes that by utilizing off chain influences for the greater good of the DAO, you can actually create healthier governance models and more authentically represent the will of the DAO. We discuss the pros and cons of anonymous voting, and issues surrounding social capital, voter apathy, and token voting in general. Parker believes that there’s no one right way to structure a DAO, but instead thinks deeply about how DAO structure and governance can be implemented differently to best serve the unique purpose of individual DAOs. At Boys Club, Parker is directly overseeing the process of turning Boys Club into a DAO and she’s spent the last 11 months researching, creating, and implementing a structure and governance system that is specifically tailored to Boys Club. Parker’s shares what she’s most excited about as a VC - zero knowledge proofs and rollups. We also dive into how Parker distinctly differentiates marketing from community, with marketing being something you can purchase and community being something that is priceless. Parker shares her thoughts on post humanism as it relates to blockchain technology and inadvertently discloses that she is a Neuralink maxi. Through some fun closing questions we learn a little bit more about Parker personally - she loves StarkNet, her job(s), Boys Club forking, and the city of Berlin.

| S3 E7 | Rethinking Identity & Reputation w/Evin McMullen | 20 Oct 2022 | 00:55:22 | |
Evin McMullen is the CEO of Disco, a toolkit that allows users to own and control their data and digital identity. She’s also an active member of DAO Jones, Boys Club, and one of the OG members of $INK DAO. If you’re interested in digital identity, verifiable credentials, or decentralized identifiers, this episode is for you and Evin has got you covered. We start by defining digital identity to lay the groundwork for listeners who may be new to the space and we cover Kim Cameron’s 7 Laws of Identity and how blockchain companies can improve user experience by implementing them more consciously. Now that we have some context, we hit the ground running and Evin dives deep into off-chain vs. on-chain data storage, off-chain vs. on-chain reputation, Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs), Verifiable Credentials (VCs), and how these technologies can help bring some humanity and understanding to the highly technical world of web3. We discuss identity more broadly and Evin shares her analogy between identity and a disco ball. We touch on topics like social capital, reputation, tattoos, identity in DAOs, and discoverability in web3. Evin shares how disco helps users control and own their digital identity with their personalized disco data backpack, and the ways in which disco is exploring monetization.

| S3 E6 | DAO Decentralization Thesis & Artificial Intelligence w/nintynick | 13 Oct 2022 | 00:56:41 | |
In this DAO-heavy episode, we sit down with nintynick, a core contributor at Hats Protocol, to discuss all things decentralization, AI, and coordination. Nick initially got into coding and finance with the goals of working in gaming, but has since pivoted whole-heartedly into the web3 space.To lay some groundwork, he tells listeners how he defines a DAO. We then dive right in by comparing DAOs with traditional companies, analyzing when a traditional company should and should not decentralize, and we flesh out the ins and outs of progressive decentralization. Nick shares his thoughts on how to successfully start and maintain a DAO, emphasizing the need for values alignment. Nick is quite bullish on DAOs and believes that by 2034 (we forced him to pick a date) DAOs will become more effective than traditional organizations. Digging deeper into the intersection of AI and tech, Nick explains agent-based modeling in AI, and we explore the automation of work, automated constrained delegation, Hats Protocol, and compare AI to human capability.

| S3 E5 | How to Avoid Crypto Scams w/Taylor Monahan | 06 Oct 2022 | 00:52:26 | |
Taylor Monahan is Product Lead at MetaMask, a crypto wallet and gateway to blockchain apps. As an early crypto adopter, Taylor has watched almost every cycle of crypto come and go. About a year after the Ethereum presale, she learned there were real blockchain apps popping up on the Ethereum blockchain. And even in these early days, she recognized the industry’s need for something critical — better wallets. Taylor pivoted into working on creating her own wallet with a more user-friendly interface and….actual buttons and stuff. This turned into MyCrypto, which was later bought by MetaMask. Taylor has been building web3 tooling and working on making wallets easier to use ever since. During our discussion with Taylor, we dive into wallet security and cover basic wallet 101 info. She runs us through some best practices and ways in which your wallet can become compromised, as well as how a recovery phrase/seed phrase works and how to prevent attacks. Taylor also shares how she almost got scammed, Diana shared how her sister did get scammed, and we go over the importance of double checking, triple checking, and gut checking before you sign a transaction. Taylor also informs us of some steps you can take to cross-examine the validity of whatever site you are interacting with. Finally, Taylor shares how the web3 space (and wallets in particular) have evolved over the years of her long and successful career, and she leaves us with some spicy hot takes on the future of web3.

| S3 E4 | CC0, Creator Royalties, and Storytelling in Web3 w/Simon de la Rouviere | 29 Sep 2022 | 00:45:01 | |
Not only is Simon De La Rouviere the founder of Untitled Frontier, which explores the intersection of storytelling and web3, but he is also an early Ethereum developer who worked on creating the ERC-20 token standard. He’s also a science fiction writer and author of “The Hoperunners of Gridlock” which you can check out in the links below. We dive into the intersection of web3 and the creator economy, and Simon shares his thoughts on the ways in which web3 technology can empower creators to more directly interact with their fans. We touch on Li Jin’s theory of the 100 true fans, and Simon describes what he would like the future creator economy to look like. We discuss CC0, and the ways in which web3 is changing IP models for the benefit of creators. We also talk about creator royalties and how they should be utilized correctly. Simon shares his first hand experience as a creator when he wrote “Hoperunners of Gridlock” and we compare web2 and web3 creator monetization models. Simon shares his thoughts on the current narrative of web3 and highlights what he thinks web3 marketers should focus on. We get the inside scoop on Simon’s latest project, Untitled Frontier, which is a platform for fiction writers to sell NFTs related to their stories, and something SImon is so passionate about that even if he had all the money in the world and never had to work another day in his life, he would still be dedicating his time to it.

| S3 E3 | Experimenting With New Media Models in Web3 w/Daisy Alioto | 22 Sep 2022 | 00:54:18 | |
Daisy Alioto is the co-founder of Dirt, a daily(ish) newsletter about entertainment online that uses NFTs for community participation and governance. With over a decade of experience working in audience development at tech startups and companies like Time Inc, Daisy is well versed in content, editorial, marketing, community building, and more. This background prepped her to see the potential in web3 early on, as she was already familiar with the wide breadth of media structures that have popped up throughout the digital media boom. So when she decided she wanted to start a digital media project of her own, she and co-founder Kyle Chayka brought those traditional building blocks together with NFTs and web3 tech. Dirt was born. Today, Dirt consists of a newsletter, NFT art editions and a growing community of readers and token-holders. The project is carving out a space for ‘weird but intelligent’ content and giving community members options for how deeply involved they want to be - from occasional consumers to collectors and curators. During our conversation with Daisy, she walks us through the rapidly changing digital media landscape. She explains the troubles with our reliance on digital ads and platforms, the idea of product-audience fit, and the opportunities in web3 for media to be more community supported. While she is deeply familiar with digital media’s current issues, she is optimistic about its future. We also discuss being a media-first brand, decentralized content creation, and the role that traditional marketing techniques play in web3. Finally, Daisy gives us her thoughts on where she sees media and social networks heading, and gives us a reason to go back and play Candyland again.

| S3 E2 | Non-Financial Use Cases for Tokens w/David Phelps | 15 Sep 2022 | 01:01:31 | |
On this Episode of Rehash, we sat down with David Phelps. On top of being the founder of JokeDAO and an investor at Cowfund, David is also a writer, thinker, and talented shitposter. Contrary to what his boyish looks might suggest, David is a boomer who spent his prior life in the web2 and education spaces. After starting a tutoring agency that gave tutors a much larger slice of the revenue pie, David found his way into the web3 DAO space. Today, he continues to focus on projects that give creators and users the ownership and compensation that they deserve. JokeDAO is an on-chain governance platform used by web3 projects (including Rehash!) to create and run contests in a fair, decentralized manner. In the short time since it popped up, JokeDAO has been used by other creators like Packy McCormick and organizations like Tally and Jukebox to give their communities a stronger voice in what they’re making. As someone who spends much of his time thinking about and working on governance, David brings us on a deep dive into its nuances. We discuss the role of tokens in voting and online communities, why governance should be chaotic, and some of the unique challenges JokeDAO has faced. David also tells us about the intricate ways that JokeDAO could be used to create more community-aligned proposals and decisions. Aside from governance, David explains the potential of blockchains and projects like Cosmos and Celestia, gives his bullish argument for web3, and breaks down what he looks for when investing in the space. For good measure, we also make plenty of cow jokes, we take a look at the line between governance and moderation, David shills Cosmos, and he explains why beavers (real ones, not from cartoons) should be the official symbol of JokeDAO.

| S3 E1 | Best Practices for Operating a DAO w/Dennison Bertram | 08 Sep 2022 | 00:44:31 | |
On this Episode of Rehash: a web3 podcast, we sat down with Dennison Bertram, founder of Tally, a DAO operations platform. Dennison is also the #2 backer from our initial Mirror crowdfund and, as a result, one of Rehash’s Queen of the Pod. Thank you Dennison! Dennison has been in the crypto space since 2012, earning himself true OG status. Although he was a self-proclaimed Bitcoin in his early days, he’s now Ethereum-pilled and building Tally across several blockchains. In a DAO-heavy discussion, we dive deep into the challenges DAOs are facing, particularly around operations. We dive into what it means to be a DAO, how to set one up correctly, and Dennison gives us some DAO best practices. We also talk about “fake” DAOs and how bad actors are coming into the space to get DAO recognition, but not truly behaving like a DAO when things go south. We compare DAOs with traditional companies and analyze some of the challenges they both face. Dennison also shares his views on decentralization maxis as well as the controversial topic of what DAOs can learn from corporations. Dennison leaves us with some final thoughts around what he’s most bullish about, most bearish about, and what excites him the most about the future of DAOs.
