Jayden Sage in the Land of Infinity
Jayden Sage in the Land of Infinity Ground control to Major Tom. Ground control to Major Tom. Take your protein pills and put your helmet on. And while you’re at it, eat a few ears of corn. It’s awesome space food. In episode 589, we discuss deep space ventures and their connection to blockchain. Jayden Sage is one who knows about these things. As usual, our questions are unprepared and unscripted. Sometimes the questions are great. Sometimes they are just okay. But Jayden’s answers and insights are fantastic. And there is a lot of laughter, but since we’re not as funny as we think we are, you are not allowed to laugh. Just allow the milk, coffee or beverage of choice to come out through your nose if you feel the urge. But don’t laugh.

Art on the Blockchain Revisited with Vesa
Art on the Blockchain Revisited with Vesa As we rapidly approach the fifth anniversary of this podcast, it’s amazing to us how quickly time has flown by. We thought it was a great time to invite Vesa back to see what’s changed and what has stayed the same. We get into some deep stuff about the nature of art and how NFTs are changing the game. One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small. Take them both and you end up just where you started. There, I’ve created derivative art with my words. And now we are going to create more art words with our friend Vesa on this artsy-fartsy episode #588 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

How to Keep Your Ethereum Wallet Private with Alan Scott, Railgun
How to Keep Your Ethereum Wallet Private with Alan Scott, Railgun Privacy is something all humans instinctively value. It is a well-recognized human right, and even those who deny it to others expect it for themselves. Privacy and anonymity should be the default, not the exception. Your consent should be needed before your personal or financial details are revealed to any would-be voyeur. This is the vision statement of Railgun, a new privacy-based technology that allows you to make your Ethereum wallet, the tokens in that wallet AND your NFTs unavailable to prying eyes. In episode 586, we welcome Alan Scott of Railgun to the show to discuss all things privacy and how this new technology delivers on its promises.

A Fireside Chat with Eryka Gemma
A Fireside Chat with Eryka Gemma Remember a couple of episodes back when Eryka Gemma moderated a fireside chat with us at The North American Bitcoin Conference, and we said words about things? Well, we just couldn’t stay away and we’ve invited her to this show to say more words. In episode 585, we discuss Eryka Gemma's journey down the crypto rabbit hole, how she founded the first Bitcoin Center in Miami in 2018, and the state of the world, highlighted by why crypto is just so darned important to our freedom. Caution, the show you are about to hear features opinions, delivered by opinionated people. Those opinions may not be popular. Whatever. If you are offended by other peoples’ opinions, you should probably just blindfold yourself so as to not see anything and tape headphones playing Kenny G on replay over your ears so you won’t hear anything you might disagree with. Otherwise, we’re glad you are here for episode #585 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

Hacking the World with Mohsan Farid
Hacking the World with Mohsan Farid Are you secure in your cryptos? How do you know? The world is a crazy place full of hackers and ne’er do wells just looming in the shadows trying to take your cryptos and take all your crypto treasure, while trying to avoid jail. Sometimes, the black hat hackers turn into good white hat hackers who help look for vulnerabilities in various systems… and they get paid a bounty of treasure AND they don’t go to jail. In episode 584, we talk with Mohsan Farid, a senior penetration specialist, and founder of LedgerOps, a blockchain cybersecurity service provider. We discuss all things cybersecurity, Cyber Polygon, NSA’s creation of Bitcoin, and the latest threat to crypto users.

The Future of Web 3.0 from Bitcoin Miami 2022
The Future of Web 3.0 from Bitcoin Miami 2022 In case you weren’t aware, Travis and I are from the future. It’s our job as futurists to get there before you do so we can warn you about what’s coming next. Well, we’ve been there. And there still aren’t flying cars. But what we HAVE seen there is fascinating, and we were recently invited to the keynote stage at The North American Bitcoin conference for a fireside chat with Eryka Gemma to share what we’ve seen with the attendees. Turns out it was entertaining enough that we have secured a recording of the session and are pleased to share it with you today. Before you ask, just because we’ve seen the future doesn’t mean we will share who wins the Super Bowl with you in advance. That just takes all the fun out of it.Support the show: https://badcryptopodcast.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A Heart to Heart with Richard Heart
A Heart to Heart with Richard Heart Here at the Republic of Bad Cryptopia, we have interviewed hundreds of people from the crypto world. There are just so many different opinions and takes on the space and we like to cover it all. It’s kind of like we’re the Baskin Robbins of Blockchain. Some guests could be considered vanilla, like Brad Garlinghouse, the CEO of Ripple, giving the party line communications that one would expect. Others might be considered mint chocolate chip, like our recent talk with Tom Bilyeu… a delightful flavor that everyone enjoys. Well, today’s guest is highly controversial and really a matter of taste. If Richard Heart, the creator of Hex, Pulsechain and PulseX could be a flavor, I guess it would be butter pecan pumpkin spice rocky road triple strawberry mud pie. That’s because you may gravitate to whichever of these flavors stand out the most. He’s one of the most in-demand guests for the show and we believe that the content you are about to hear will deliver far more than just two scoops. Join us for a real heart-to-heart with Richard Heart on episode #582 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.
