Episode notes

Mark Andreessen: I've been in the tech business for 20 something years, and I've been through five downturns. If you want to do something substantive as an entrepreneur or an investor, I think you have to be prepared to build through ups and downs. He says crypto is very strong right now; it's better than it has been in the past. The next episode of TechCrunch Disrupt will air on November 14 at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Welcome to Chain Reaction, where we unpack and explain the latest in crypto news, drama and trends, breaking things down block by block for the crypto curious.

For this week’s Tuesday episode where we chat with a web3 expert, we’re playing a recording of our discussion live on stage with a16z GP Chris Dixon that took place at Disrupt last month. We chatted with Dixon about:

The venture firm’s new creator economy-focused crypto accelerator program
Why a16z backed controversial WeWork founder Adam Neumann
Where he’s seeing opportunity across the web3 landscape in this bear market

Also, we’ll be hosting our first dedicated crypto event in Miami for just one day on November 17th — you can use the promo code, REACT, for 15% off a General Admission ticket to hear from speakers including FTX’s Amy Wu and OpenSea’s Devin Finzer.
