Your DNA, health data, and digital identity are encrypted, monetized, and weaponized against you.
But what if there was a way to take it backโฆ and hack the system?
In this mind-expanding episode, Dave sits down with two elite hacker-foundersโMichael Tiffany, CEO of Fulcra.ai, and Vishakh, founder of Monadic DNAโto explore a radical shift in the way we store, protect, and use our most personal data.
Together, they break down the Web3 tech stack powering this revolution. Enter Nillion, a distributed, privacy-preserving compute network that allows you to share and analyze your encrypted dataโฆ without ever giving it away.
From genomic privacy to AI sovereignty, this episode exposes the hidden architecture of controlโand how to escape it. Youโll learn how cutting-edge blockchain and cryptography are rewriting the rules of ownership, consent, and even identity itself.
What Youโll Learn in This Episode:
โข Why your DNA is already in government databasesโand how long they keep it
โข How Nillion enables secure computation on private data
โข What it means to build a โcybernetic operating systemโ for your body
โข Why Fulcra.ai is building the orchestration layer of human optimization
โข How Monadic DNA helps you profit from your geneticsโwithout giving them away
โข Why owning your data is the next frontier of biohacking
โข The surprising connection between decentralization, health freedom, and consciousness
โข How to join the movement toward true data sovereignty
If youโve ever felt like youโre giving away too much to big tech, big pharma, or just the internet itselfโthis conversation will change how you see your dataโฆ and your body.
